A glorious outdoor haven, the garden is mature and well-tended, a South-facing suntrap with a rear seating area, perfect for savouring the warmer months of the year.

Two bathrooms serve this fantastic house, one with a bathtub and overhead shower, ideal for a soak in the bubbles within the refreshing ambience created by the soft green tiling. The W.C. for this bathrooms sits adjacent, creating a separation ideal for families, or the potential to combine into one bathroom if preferred. Perfect for visiting guests, the second bathroom is positioned on the ground floor, and offers a walk-in shower.

Finsen Road is ideally located right at the heart of the desirable Ruskin community, close to Herne Hill and minutes from the increasingly popular Loughborough Junction and a stone’s throw from Ruskin Park.

An impressive home in a lovely area with local shops and the Whirled Cinema on the doorstep, close to Herne Hill and Brixton town centres but far enough away to retain a sleepy, neighbourhood feel.
