Full Details for 5 Bedroom Semi-Detached for sale in Brixton, SW2 :

Simply lovely from start to finish, you’ll be smitten by this impressive semi-detached four/five bedroom  Victorian beauty, boasting four bathrooms/shower rooms (one for every floor) and generous bright living space. Bagging yourself a property like this on Sudbourne Road leaves you also perfectly placed for the countless social pursuits of Clapham and Brixton and the highly rated Sudbourne and Corpus Christi Primary Schools. The street itself is tree lined, residential, very quiet and within walking distance from the lively atmosphere, services and connections of Brixton centre, with its cool vibe and buzzing market and village, Clapham High Street and the calmer elegant flare of Abbeville Road. Clapham Common and the marvellous rolling hills of Brockwell Park are also just a short walk. The Victoria Line at Brixton and Northern Line at Clapham North make the commute as easy as the lifestyle.  

At the house you are greeted by black railings and high hedging and climbers afford you privacy (a mature wisteria and clematis armandii flower beautifully in spring). Step through the front garden and into a deep recessed portico. The inner hall has a stripped cast iron radiator, like almost all other rooms, high ceilings and stripped original staircase with wooden treads, and plenty os space to hang your coats and jackets. Take a right into the first reception, sitting gracefully over the front of the house. There is a front aspect bay window and the room has fresh white walls, recessed shelving and simple elegant cornicing. We love the pretty brass door handles! To the rear is another reception/library which features a period fireplace, built in book shelving on four sides (currently hosting more than 2000 books). An archway leads through to a stunning conservatory with a pitched glazed roof, oak timber structure and a large triptych of reclaimed crittall iron windows with secondary glazing to keep the room warm and cosy. This is a stunning space, where you are outside without being outside, and to enjoy come rain or shine, day and night, watching the ever changing skies and the clouds go by.   

The entrance, conservatory and kitchen floors are graced with thin-slat hard wood flooring. A further passage reveals a huge kitchen/diner – the flow of space works really well in this house - also featuring matching crittall window and door. Chefs will love the Carrara marble worktops, masses of white units and a recessed storage area to hide the preservatives. Two overhead skylights keep things bright and there is access to the 40ft private garden from here too. Plants there include an apple tree, several cherries and a magnolia as well as flowering bushes such as a blue ceanothus, white double patience, yellow forsythia etc. There is something flowering here almost every day of the year. It’s a lovely private place, not overlooked from the rear with a paved raised patio area at the back for outdoor dining and bbq, central lawn and a even a sauna seating four people hidden behind the shed at the end of the garden – how delightful! 

If you can bare to pull yourself away from the garden, head back inside the house and up to the first floor. Pause on the landing which is bright and airy. You’ll find a wet-room with a w.c., wash basin and shower on this level too. Up again to the first double bedroom, front facing, with two hardwood sash windows (double glazed, of course) which light up the space perfectly and fitted shelving and wardrobes on three sides. An adjoining en suite with dishy reclaimed victorian tiling, cast iron bathtub, period style loo, bidet and antique heated towel rail will impress. You can also access the en suite from the hall should you wish. The second double bedroom on this floor benefits from an original fireplace and delightful view on the garden. The second floor is currently arranged as a a self-contained living area with an open plan kitchen spanning the full width of the house. There is a double bedroom at the rear and a shower room – perfect for renting or stashing the in-laws when they visit. The third floor is an entire fabulous double bedroom with maple flooring, wonderful sloping eaves, Velux windows and exposed brick feature wall. There is an en suite shower room with blue natural rubber flooring and wall, and there is plenty of storage space left under the roof eaves. Over the years the property has been obviously refurbished with good taste, quality work and materials. The loft conversion is very well insulated and together with double glazing throughout the house renders this a warm and welcoming home.  

Back to the surrounding area and transport links, the 137 is just around the corner and will whisk you to Sloane Square and Knightsbridge. The 35 and 37 take you quickly to Clapham Junction. Clapham North tube is about 12 minute walk for the Northern line or you've got the Victoria line in Brixton in less than 10. You're within a pleasant amble of Abbeville Village for a slightly more laid back village feel. Acre Lane has some handy shops and a fab Algerian restaurant, Khamsa - we recommend it highly! The Grand Union does ace cocktails and burgers (we've been known to frequent their super cool beet garden). Brixton's all a buzz of late - it's a proper social hub. The Ritzy cinema overlooks the recently re-developed Windrush Square offering a marvellous place to sit, chat and drink coffee. This is before we mention the ocean of funky bars, cafés and restaurants on offer - we love Fujiyama for some noodles and vino. Brixton's covered market supplies a seemingly endless list of world cuisine - you can dine on everything from Columbian to Vietnamese. Honest Burger is to die for - those rosemary chips are having a disastrous effect on the waistbands of Brixtonites and foodies from all over London! The White Horse really rocks out on the weekend and you've got a fab restaurant attached the Brockwell Lido. Keeping fit is no problem with Brockwell Park and Clapham Common. And for families with young children, Sudbourne and Corpus Christi Primary Schools are a matter of seconds for super easy morning commute. Both are highly regarded and have attracted many people to the area, forming a welcoming community. All in all a real winner!
