A lovely Victorian maisonette in Herne Hill Road, with views over Ruskin Park, renovated slowly over several years including, new gas central heating and combo boiler, a new Ikea kitchen, stripped pine floorboards, replaced very nasty 60s tile fireplace with a black iron one. Replaced all the polystyrene coving with stripped pine. Dipped and stripped all the solid pine doors back to wood.
