Property details

Keating Estates are proud to present to market a versatile four bedroom maisonette set over the first floor of a charming period property on Lyham Road. This generously proportioned home boasts its own private entrance, an abundance of natural light, endearing features and is ideally nestled between the ever-popular hubs of Clapham and Brixton, offering the best of both vibrant neighbourhoods within easy walking distance.

The property is accessed via its own private front door, a sought-after benefit that adds to the sense of privacy and independence. Upon entering, you are welcomed into a charming hallway that sets the tone for the rest of this appealing residence. At the rear of the home sits a delightful reception room, bathed in natural light through dual sash windows and adorned with characterful detailing. With ample room to lounge and dine, this inviting space also features a charming built-in cabinet, creating a homely yet stylish setting ideal for both relaxing and entertaining.

Adjacent to the reception, the separate kitchen is well-appointed with countertops and white cabinetry down both sides, offering plenty of storage and worktop space. A convenient serving hatch connects the two rooms, enhancing the flow of light and sociability, while maintaining the distinction between living and cooking areas. Subject to permissions, the position of the kitchen next to the reception means there is the potential for the purchaser to open out into one expansive space if open plan living is preferred.

Three well-proportioned bedrooms are set to the opposing side of the property, each neutrally decorated and offering flexibility for families, sharers, or those seeking additional workspace. The fourth bedroom is currently arranged as a home office, ideal for remote working or easily repurposed as a nursery, dressing room or hobby space.

A modern family bathroom serves the flat, complete with a luxurious roll-top bath with overhead shower. Completing this lovely home is access to a sizable loft, providing excellent storage options and further scope for conversion, subject to the usual permissions—ideal for purchasers looking to grow into the space over time.

This versatile home is located in a sought-after pocket of SW2, in a vibrant and well-connected part of town, equidistant to Clapham High Street and Brixton with the best of both within walking distance. Just a four-minute stroll away are an array of local amenities on New Park Road, including a community-run pub, shops and café. The bars and restaurants of Acre Lane, which has gained huge popularity in recent years, are a leisurely stroll away where purchasers will enjoy having neighbourhood favourites such as Blank Coffee, Knife and the Hope & Anchor close by, as well as the Instagram favourite bakery - Aries Bakehouse and large supermarkets including Tesco, Lidl and Sainsbury’s.

Around a twenty-minute stroll, or short bus cycle or bus ride, is everything that central Brixton has to offer, from music venues and the extremely popular Brixton Village to large brand shops and cracking transport links. Abbeville Village with its boutique-like shops and cafes is easily reached, around a fifteen-minute walk in the other direction and the vibrant and diverse Clapham High Street sits just beyond, offering great nightlife and culinary delights.

Potential purchasers will benefit from the Northern Line (Clapham North and Clapham Common tube stations); the Victoria Line (Brixton tube station); and London Overground (Clapham High Street station)- alongside multiple day and night bus routes providing swift access across the city. The rolling green spaces of Clapham Common and Brockwell Park with its iconic 1930s Lido are also within easy reach.

Chain free.
