Keating Estates are proud to present to market this appealing two double bedroom Victorian apartment, boasting a larger-than-average footprint and set on the sought-after Brailsford Road cul-de-sac with the leafy expanse of Brockwell Park quite literally on the doorstep.
Keating Estates are proud to present to market this appealing two double bedroom apartment, boasting a larger-than-average footprint and an elegant open-plan living space, set within a charming Victorian house on the peaceful and sought-after Brailsford Road. Located on the top floor and nestled within a friendly cul-de-sac, this beautifully refurbished home benefits from a quiet residential setting with the leafy expanse of Brockwell Park quite literally on the doorstep.
Occupying over 640 square feet of internal space, the property enjoys a well-considered layout designed to maximise both light and functionality. With stylish contemporary finishes throughout, a 2020 refurbishment has enhanced the home, including a new kitchen, levelled floors, new windows to the front and new flooring throughout.
The open-plan reception room is a particularly impressive space, bathed in natural light and offering generous dimensions in which to relax or entertain. Modern grey flooring sweeps elegantly through the room, complemented by chic contemporary radiators and thoughtfully selected lighting features. There is ample room to dine, making the space as practical as it is attractive.
The sleek kitchen is set in soft grey tones, contrasting beautifully with crisp white cabinetry and worktops. A charming brass sink and tap are positioned beneath a classic sash window, adding a touch of character and warmth. This thoughtfully designed space, has been cleverly extended over the stairwell, creating a slightly larger footprint than comparable top-floor flats on the road and offering additional practicality without compromising the aesthetics. It is a truly pleasant and functional area for cooking and hosting alike.
Both double bedrooms are peacefully located to the rear of the property, offering a quiet retreat from the social spaces at the front. The principal bedroom is especially spacious, while the second bedroom, still a comfortable double, would also lend itself well to use as a generous home office or guest room, depending on the buyer’s requirements. Centrally located within the flat is the contemporary bathroom, stylishly finished with striking blue tiling framing a luxurious walk-in shower – a relaxing haven to return to after a weekend stroll through nearby Brockwell Park.
The entire property is tastefully decorated in neutral tones, with modern floorboards and carpeting adding to the cohesive and ready-to-move-into appeal. Should the purchaser wish to add further enhancements, planning permission was granted in 2018 to alter the roof profile by extending the existing front dormer.
Brailsford Road is a quiet, tree-lined cul-de-sac that enjoys a warm sense of community. As far as locations go, it doesn’t get much better. Brockwell Park is moments from the home with the fantastic benefit of an entrance moments from your front door. The beautiful greenery of this award-winning park will not disappoint, along with its iconic 1930s Lido, excellent sports facilities, popular café and more.
Desirable has a large supermarket, and various local heroes such as Maya’s Bakehouse, The Hootenanny, Maremma and Naughty Piglets right on your doorstep. This lovely home is just a ten-minute walk to central Brixton with the excellent transport links on offer at the tube and overground station, in addition to the wide variety of hotspots and eateries which vibrant Brixton is famous for. The amenities in leafy and village-esq Herne Hill are also a pleasant ten-minute stroll through Brockwell Park, including the Thameslink train connections, and the property will appeal to purchasers considering moving to both of these in-demand areas.
Residents benefit from council-run bike lockups on the street, making this a practical choice for cyclists.
