Terraced house to rent in Stannary Street, London SE11

Generous dimension, a period charm, light & space combine effortlessly at this 1342 sq. Ft, lofty, ground floor apartment in Kennington’s most sought-after Victorian school conversion.

The warm period charm of the exterior contrasts with the clean, minimal internal styling, bringing together volume and space that works whether you’re looking at family or shared accommodation for professionals.

Inside, the layout is arranged through a series of interconnected rooms which centre around a large open fully equipped kitchen with light pastel toned cabinetry and wooden countertops that mirror the nicely distressed flooring. Overhead, light floods in through large Velux windows which sit in the vaulted roof line.

The adjoining reception with its en-suite, mezzanine bedroom overlooking the living area is a cavernous room. White washed brick work, and shiny floor boards help distribute more natural light filtering through oversize Victorian windows that nearly reach the apex of the vaulted ceiling.

Another vaulted roof sits over the dining room on the other side of the kitchen but this one is entirely glass. There are more exposed timber floors in here as well as painted brickwork and some practical fitted shelving. It’s a sunny spot, and along with the main reception room and kitchen, has glazed doors opening out to the secluded 45 ft courtyard garden.

Two more bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the accommodation, both positioned apart from each other, offering a feeling of privacy.

Parking is gated and found at the front of the main building.
