A unique, angular extension has flooded this Victorian Brixton home for sale with light.
Redesigned by architects Nagan Johnson, the tall stucco house delivers serious impact with a tangerine-painted front door, traditional cast-iron fireplaces, original floorboards, double-height picture windows overlooking the garden, and a mezzanine space fitted with bespoke bookshelves.
Unfolding across four floors (including a handy cellar), the mid-terrace house is surprisingly spacious. The bright kitchen boasts ample storage and a central island, while the rear of the dining room opens to a handy study above, perfect for home working or relaxing. There are also three well-sized bedrooms, a studio area, and a dressing room complete with a roll-top bath and sash window.
Light-filled rooms feature calming paint palettes throughout, while curved walls and floor-to-ceiling windows add architectural interest — a perfect canvas for new owners to make their mark.
Meanwhile, outside, the pretty garden flourishes with tall trees, established shrubbery, a paved seating area, and a lawn section at the front. It's not the largest space, but for a tucked-away terrace, it's just what you need. Plus, Clapham Common and Brockwell Park are a short walk away.
Speaking about the design, the architects explain: 'Measuring at a modest 5 sqm of additional floorspace, this little extension packed a visual punch whilst completely transforming the internal spaces.
'At ground floor, this triangular double-height space hosts the dining table, above which a gallery-level study surveys with uninterrupted views to the garden and foliage of the existing Lime tree.'
