Full Description

An outstanding split level, one bedroom flat, with access to a private garden, moments from Streatham Hill station, set back quietly on this desirable road.

Located in the Leigham Court Road Conservation area, this detached, double-fronted building was built in 1866, a one-time home of W. R. Axten, of the iconic Quin and Axtens' Department Store in Brixton, with a blend of Gothic styling and a central turret, coupled with classical period references which reflect the fluid architectural tastes of builders at the time.

With over 700 square feet of internal space on offer, this spectacular flat is truly one of a kind and offers considerably more internal living space than the average one bedroom property in the area. The property is accessed via its own front door, directly into the impressive open-plan reception and kitchen. This magnificent space oozes character, complete with beamed ceilings, intricately detailed windows, wooden panelling and decorative cornicing. The L-shaped kitchen boasts stylish, contemporary units and all you need in terms of mod cons and storage, and is flooded with natural light. There is plenty of space for dining, relaxing and entertaining in this wonderfully open room, which is sure to be used on a regular basis. Double doors provide direct access onto the private garden: this attractive outdoor area is the perfect space in which to unwind and enjoy the tranquil surroundings during the warmer months and feels worlds away from the hustle and bustle of city life. 

The double bedroom is generous in size and has the added benefit of floor-to-ceiling fitted wardrobes. Natural light is a running theme throughout the property – the bedroom is no different, with attractive windows adding further character. The luxurious bathroom is sleek and modern, complete with a stylish walk-in shower. The property has the superb additional benefit of a spacious mezzanine level, currently used as a guest bedroom. This brilliant space is versatile and has many potential uses, such as a second/guest bedroom, a study, snug, TV area etc.

The flat is nestled in a popular residential pocket, highly sought after for its character, feel and proximity to Streatham Hill, Clapham, Balham and Brixton. Streatham Hill station is a minute’s walk with direct trains into Clapham Junction, Victoria and London Bridge. There are a wide range of fantastic local amenities on the doorstep of this grand property.
