BRICKWORKS SAYS

Not all new builds are created equally. From the red brick facade to the landscaped green spaces the apartment overlooks, this modern apartment block has been designed with consideration and character and has the awards to prove it. The flat itself is flawlessly presented: the neutral interior, clean lines and pared-back palette still have that fresh-out-the-box feel.

The kitchen is a minimalist's dream, and floor-to-ceiling windows draw you toward the balcony, a secluded space for enjoying all seasons. Pleasing attention has been paid to what modern life needs, with equal-sized bedrooms and enough storage to wave bye-bye to the clutter for good. All the while, the understated aesthetic lets any future owner imprint their own taste and flair.

From Akerman Road, you can take your pick of local neighbourhoods to enjoy: Head to Brixton Village for global cuisine under one roof or stay out late at one of the after-hours spots. Morning after? Get your caffeine hit at one of Camberwell's coffee shops, take in a gallery, or take it easy and listen to the band playing at the bandstand at Myatts Fields.

THE LEGAL BIT

While we strive to create true-to-life photographs, floor plans and descriptions, our marketing material is only a guide. Purchasers should always visit in person, ask relevant questions and triple-check details. Brickworks takes our duty of care incredibly seriously and takes all reasonable steps to ensure all presented information is correct. However, we sometimes rely on the accuracy of the information provided to us by the seller and others. Also, please note that we often round up/down total floor plan measurements and/or use approximate distances.

THE OWNERS SAY

What makes the flat special is the space, light, and storage. Both rooms are a great size and have tons of storage ––I have been able to stow everything my partner and I own without any trouble. The flat is flooded with light in the morning, which is a wonderful start to the day. The development is modern, and I feel incredibly safe walking home at night.

I love the location between Camberwell and Brixton. Both are within walking distance and have lots of great restaurants, pubs, shops, and places to go out. Getting to any part of London is easy, whether you're commuting or going out and about visiting friends and family.

Getting around:

You can also pick up the Overground from Brixton or Loughborough. Many bus routes (with stops less than 10 minutes away from your front door) take you to central London or further south and east. Prefer two wheels? There are cycle paths nearby that run all the way into central London.

Anything else:
The building has been inspected, and it has a valid EWS1 form. The Brickworks office can share it on request.

Onward plans:
The owner is moving in with their partner, so the flat is being sold chain-free.
