THE OWNERS SAY

When we first walked into the house, we fell in love with the sunlight streaming through the big, sash windows. We were smitten from day one.

The front garden is a bonafide sun trap, where we spent many late summer evenings watching the sun go down with friends. But the thing we will miss the most? The best Sunday roast and Bloody Marys at the Tulse Hill Hotel.

POINTS TO CONSIDER

Getting around:

With this location, you could roll out of bed and be at Tulse Hill station in under five minutes. From there, you can jump on the Southern line to London Bridge or a Thameslink to get across town and beyond. Alternatively, hop on a bus to nearby Brixton for the Victoria line, opening up the rest of the London network.

BRICKWORKS SAYS

Behind the unassuming front gate lies a superb townhouse, elegant in style and practical in function. It's a house of Victorian detailing, complemented by modern décor. Pared-back wooden doorframes sit happily alongside more luxe touches, such as the marble-inspired shower. Light spills through the broad sash windows, illuminating a pale, calm colour palette.

The social spaces are adaptable and seamless. With a satisfying flow downstairs and the living room currently on the first floor, this flexible layout opens up a variety of uses which can be personalised to your needs. And the bedrooms offer a welcome sanctuary; each is a true double (no box rooms here).

Just as the living spaces offer adaptable living, so do the outdoor areas. The secluded front garden is just as inviting as the back garden. With an in-built bench and mature climbers, it's the perfect spot to enjoy a morning coffee beneath the blossom.

Maley Avenue is found in a well-loved nook of South London, moments from Tulse Hill, meaning you're never far from a decent brew and a selection of choice pubs. Plus, you're on the doorstep of West Norwood, Brixton and Dulwich, all neighbourhoods with a big fanbase thanks to their unique characters and thriving communities.
