Full Description
Keating Estates are proud to present this charming and generously proportioned two double bedroom split-level flat, set on a quiet, tree-lined residential street in the heart of Brixton. Occupying the upper floors of a handsome Victorian terrace and offering over 875 square feet of internal living space, this flat seamlessly combines spacious proportions, natural light, and characterful details to create a sophisticated home that’s perfect for modern urban living.
Upon entering the flat via a private ground floor entrance, a staircase leads to the rear of the property, where a spacious, stylishly appointed kitchen enjoys a pleasant leafy outlook through beautiful sash windows. Featuring sleek white gloss cabinetry, ample storage, a large breakfast bar, and generous worktop space, the kitchen is both functional and inviting—ideal for preparing meals or entertaining guests.
Leading off the first-floor landing is a conveniently positioned separate WC, perfect for visiting guests.
A half-flight of stairs leads to the heart of the home—a bright and airy reception room at the front of the property. This impressive space benefits from a charming bay window and an additional sash window, which flood the room with natural light and enhance the sense of openness. Character features include an original fireplace, attractive cornicing, and high ceilings complemented by a picture rail. The room comfortably accommodates a large sofa suite, dining area, and even a workspace, making it perfect for relaxing and entertaining alike.
Both bedrooms are generous doubles, featuring original fireplaces and built-in wardrobes. The bedroom adjacent to the reception is set at the rear, offering a peaceful outlook over neighbouring gardens and benefiting from excellent natural light. This well-proportioned room is a versatile space, perfect as a guest room, nursery, or home office.
Ascending to the second floor reveals the principal bedroom—a true sanctuary, set apart from the main living spaces for added privacy and tranquillity. Also located at the rear, this calming retreat enjoys leafy views and offers ample space for a desk or dressing table if desired.
Adjacent is a smart, neutrally tiled family bathroom, complete with a full-size bathtub, overhead shower, vanity unit with basin, WC, and towel rail. The room is well-ventilated and finished with modern fixtures and fittings.
The property was refurbished in 2018 and has been recently redecorated, offering a fresh, modern feel throughout. It benefits from a demised loft—many neighbouring properties on the road have already added additional rooms, so there's exciting potential for expansion (subject to necessary permissions). The boiler was newly installed 18 months ago and is still under warranty, with approximately five years remaining, offering peace of mind on the maintenance front. This well-balanced flat combines period charm with practical living, making it an excellent choice for families, professional sharers, or anyone seeking a long-term home with scope to personalise.
Situated within easy reach of green spaces and local amenities, the home offers an enviable blend of period elegance and modern convenience. It is located adjacent to the sought-after Josephine Avenue Conservation Area and close to the popular Brockwell Park—perfect for weekend walks and outdoor activities.
Helix Road is a quiet, leafy, no-through street in vibrant and thriving Brixton, ensuring minimal traffic and a peaceful setting. Just a 10–12 minute stroll to central Brixton, residents are also moments from popular local spots along Brixton Hill, including F Mondays, Stir Coffee, Pizza Brixton, and The White Horse Pub. This exquisite flat is ideal for those who want to be close to the action while enjoying a sense of calm. The new owner will benefit from the best of both worlds: the lively energy of central Brixton and the quieter, village-like atmosphere around Brixton Hill and Elm Park, complete with local pubs, bakeries, and cafés.
