Property description

Beautifully presented, this elegant garden flat is perfectly formed and brimming with charm. Cleverly designed to maximise space, it offers two decent bedrooms, an attractive living space that lends itself well to entertaining, and a private terrace leading to a sublime 82’ x 54’ communal garden.

Elsynge Road was designed as part of The Great Exhibition of 1851 by a number of the leading architects of the day, to showcase their designs, so it offers an eclectic selection of styles. Highly regarded and now included within a conservation area, it is also part of a vibrant and sought-after area radiating around buzzy St. John’s Hill with its array of cafes, bars, restaurants and shops. Just minutes away from the northern edge of Wandsworth Common, it is positioned conveniently within easy reach of the excellent transport links provided by Clapham Junction station giving access to a range of destinations. There are also numerous buses running along St. John's Hill for shorter journeys.

SHOWER ROOM 11'5\" x 8'8\" (3.48m x 2.64m). The shower room has previously held a bath, but the current owner has installed a large walk-in shower cubicle instead.

TERRACE 12'8\" x 10'7\" (3.86m x 3.23m). Both bedrooms look directly onto the flat's own small terrace, which is set a few steps below the level of the main, communal garden. The terrace is currently open to an adjacent terrace owned by the mirror-image flat next door, but we understand that each terrace is separately demised and that they could be fenced off or walled to create a more private ‘courtyard'. From the terrace, there is access to a very useful outside store cupboard, and steps leading up to the communal garden.

COMMUNAL GARDEN 82' x 54'5\" (25m x 16.59m). There is an absolutely stunning, and huge, communal garden shared between the six flats of the building. Mainly laid to lawn, the garden has well maintained and extensive borders, with mature shrubs, trees and herbaceous planting.
