Full Description
Keating Estates are proud to present to market a lovely two-bedroom apartment with a South-East facing landscaped garden, private entrance and the rarity of allocated off-street parking. This delightful home is arranged over the ground floor of one of the prettiest Victorian houses in the highly sought-after Poets’ Corner, with Brockwell Park at the top of the street.
This charming apartment feels like home from the moment you step through the private entrance. The heart of the home is a stunning open-plan reception room, boasting characterful exposed wooden floorboards and flooded with natural light through large double-glazed windows enjoying leafy garden views whilst ensuring a private setting. High ceilings amplify the sense of space, while cleverly designed storage nooks ensure practicality without compromising the generous footprint of this sociable room, ideal for both relaxing and entertaining. A striking modern fireplace forms a central feature, perfect for cosy evenings or enjoying a meal in atmospheric surrounds.
Tucked to the rear, the stylish kitchen is sleek and well-appointed, featuring gloss white cabinetry and integrated appliances, all beautifully finished with wooden worktops. This contemporary space is designed to optimise both light and storage, with everything in easy reach for those who love to cook or entertain.
The beautifully South-East facing garden is a true gem, bathed in sunlight from morning until late afternoon. Landscaped for ease of maintenance this sunny spot is complete with mature planting and raised beds framing a charming bench. Ideal for al-fresco dining or morning coffee, this private outdoor retreat offers a fantastic space to enjoy the warmer months.
The principal bedroom is an inviting double room positioned at the front of the property. There is ample space for a large wardrobe along with additional storage, all complemented by soft neutral décor. Currently a home office and guest room, the smaller second bedroom is a versatile space, tucked away quietly in the centre of the home with built-in storage and a skylight cascading lovely natural light for a soothing ambience. The bathroom is modern and inviting, neutrally presented with a luxurious double-ended bathtub and overhead rain shower.
The cherry on the cake is the rarity of an allocated off-street parking space just outside your front door. Additional highlights include a newly installed flat roof (October 2024) with a 50-year guarantee, and double-glazed windows fitted in January 2021. The property benefits from a warm and friendly community with lovely neighbours in the building.
Poets’ Corner is a highly desirable enclave of Herne Hill, known for its peaceful streets and picturesque period homes, where the residents gather together for an annual street party with each road taking turns to organise this wholesome event. Shakespeare Road itself sits right in the heart of this neighbourly pocket with the green open spaces of Brockwell Park just a short stroll away at the top of the street, perfect for weekend picnics, scenic walks or a dip in the lido.
The village-esque Herne Hill centre is just a five-minute stroll away, home to an array of independent cafes, restaurants, artisan shops and a farmers market adding to its welcoming feel. Herne Hill station offers speedy access to London Victoria in 10 minutes and the Thameslink service to London Blackfriars in 12 minutes, whilst Brixton tube is also within easy walking distance for the start of the Victoria Line, running 24hrs at the weekend. Just a ten-minute walk from your front door, central Brixton offers a vast array of entertainment options from the famous Brixton Village serving culinary delights to the Ritzy Cinema and Upstairs private members club just to name a few of the spots on offer. With Brockwell Park, Herne Hill’s pubs and restaurants and Brixton all on your doorstep, there really is something to cater for all tastes. There is also a swift network of buses, running day and night to whisk you from the end of the street to other areas of London, through Dulwich into Peckham, or over to Clapham and even into the city.
A truly charming and unique home, this beautifully presented apartment offers the rare blend of character, outside space, private entrance and off-street parking – a real gem in a prime location.
