THE OWNERS SAY

We will greatly miss living in this wonderful home and have especially adored socialising in the kitchen and lounging with a cup of tea in the built-in corner bench, our favourite spot. The spare bedroom/office looks directly onto the Shard, which is wonderful for watching the annual fireworks display right from the house! Our south-facing garden, with its amazing climbing rose that flowers in May, is the perfect sun trap.

The area cannot be beaten and the proximity to town was our main reason for moving here. We love our daily walks along the river Thames and enjoy walkable access to anywhere in town. We have great food close by in Flat Iron Square and Borough Market as well as a great array of restaurants on The Cut, and other useful shops such as a chemist and hardware shops on Lower Marsh.

POINTS TO CONSIDER

Energy Performance Certificate:
The EPC gives a current Energy Efficiency Rating: D and potential Energy Efficiency Rating: B.

Council tax:
In the Borough of Southwark, the house falls into Council Tax Band E (£1,948 in 2022/23).

Utilities:
Current monthly utility costs run at gas £60, electricity £60 and water £14.

Getting around:
Aside from having a host of London's most sought-after locations on your doorstep, you are spoilt for choice when the need or wish arises to head further afield. The stations at Waterloo, Southwark, Borough & London Bridge are all within walking distance, providing links to every corner of the Capital. And when you need to travel further still, Blackfriars Station gets you to St Pancras (in 8 mins!), opening up convenient, carbon-friendly connections to Europe.

Recent work:
The current owners have removed an internal wall to open up the kitchen and have installed a new kitchen (including electrics and plumbing). They also removed a bathroom wall, added a second WC and built an additional shower room. They added skylights in the stairwell and bathroom and a linked smoke alarm system to comply with safety regulations. They put in new outdoor decking and built new custom storage throughout.

THE LEGAL BIT

While we endeavour to provide accurate photographs, floor plans, and descriptions, these should be intended as a guide. Total floor plan measurements are sometimes rounded for ease, and distances are approximated. Purchasers should always satisfy themselves through personal inspection.

BRICKWORKS SAYS

Located moments from the Thames River, this effortlessly stylish 2 bedroom semi-detached home is a stone's throw from The Cut, putting Borough Market, Covent Garden and Southbank at your fingertips.

Pops of colour, natural materials and clean lines bring a stylish radiance to this thoroughly modern home. Thoughtfully reworked by the current owners, in line with its original 1970s design, it is set over two light-filled floors. Cosy dining and living nooks abound throughout, and plenty of built-in storage allows for functional everyday living. While, towards the rear, the south-facing garden provides a place for quiet respite from the hustle of London.

Nicholson Street is perfectly situated to explore central London, whether on foot or by bike. A smorgasbord of brilliant eateries and foodstuffs can be found in the iconic Borough Market less than a mile away, while the Southbank's art and cultural hive rests right on your doorstep.
