Large and spacious room near Brixton&Brockwell Par

This is a large double room available from 16th February in a lovely shared semi-detached home 2 minutes walk from Brockwell Park.

The room has lots of storage with deep built in cupboards and a lot of carpet space. The windows give a lot of natural light and are very nice for WFH. The room comes with a mattress and divan, but I will be willing to sell the ones in the photos (Ottoman bed frame with storage underneath and Ikea double bed) for a good price too.

The contract for the house runs out on 18th July 2025, but is likely to continue for another year.
We're a very laid back bunch and enjoy all London has to offer. We're not massively particular. A new housemate needs to simply be someone who is kind, considerate and respectful as a. housemate.

The current housemates you'd be joining are currently four guys: Joe: super friendly guy who enjoys his morning coffee and a professional actor, Rilwan: who has a passion for all things bicycles and works for the NHS. Rutger: who loves rowing and running around the local parks. Luca: Who has a passion for birds and nature. They are all lovely and easy to get on with.

The house is directly opposite the beautiful Brockwell Park and a hugely convenient Tesco Express and petrol station. There's also a big Sainsbury's 10 mins walk away towards Brixton. It comes with four lovely housemates, a private garden, free driveway parking and a locked garage for your bike.

It’s super convenient transport wise: a 15-20 minute walk from Brixton (Victoria line is the fastest line to get across London, hands down), Herne Hill and Tulse Hill stations (Thameslink trains direct into St Pancras, Farringdon, Blackfrairs & London Bridge), and three bus routes stop directly outside - the 2, 415 and 432.

You'd be sharing the top bathroom with three other rooms, but there has never been an issue with queuing thanks to another shower and bathroom available downstairs. Both showers also have very good water pressure.

You'll also have a big kitchen where a few of us can cook at once and there is a total of three fridges and two freezers available to use. You’ll also have personal storage space. The kitchen has a hatch through to our lovely sunny living room with two sofas, a big dining table and space for a TV.

We have a garage where we all keep our bikes and a big patio garden out the back where housemates have been known to have bbqs, summer gatherings and projected movie nights.

We also have completely free parking on a drive way out the front of the house. (space for 1 car preferably).

The local area is quiet and residential but you have some great pubs nearby in the Elm Park Tavern (5 minute walk), Effra Social (10 minute walk) and my personal favourite, The Railway (15 mins outside Tulles Hill station). Brixton is a super vibrant place with too many good restaurants, pop ups and pubs to list out, but so much to see and do. Gyms, pools and yoga studios are all within 10 minute walks too. Due to the crappy summer we've had so far I've been unable to enjoy Brockwell Park as much as I would’ve liked, but it has the lido, loads of summer festivals, ponds and little cafes which IMO makes it genuinely one of the highlights of south London, especially in the summer. Herne Hill boasts a leafier charm with a weekend market and some fancier boozers and you can easily stroll across to West Norwood, Dulwich, Gypsy Hill, Crystal Palace or Streatham if you have the time to spare. If you’re a keen runner there’s some good hilly terrain to train on around here!

The house is Victorian era so not super modern, but honestly, this is a bargain for the location, convenience, easy-living situation and surrounding area.

Bills tend to add up to around £100-120 each per month, but this fluctuates with the amount of heating the house needs. We are a council tax band E home with Lambeth county council.

If this sounds like your kind of house, then please get in touch! Feel free to contact me to arrange a viewing or if you have further questions. Please be patient with replies :-).
