Property details

Keating Estates are delighted to offer to market a stunning one bedroom garden flat, arranged over the ground floor of a characterful and handsome Victorian terrace on the highly sought-after Holmewood Road. The property is situated within a quiet residential pocket of Brixton Hill, on a no-through road, overlooking a beautiful garden square and has easy access to central Brixton, a fifteen-minute walk away, or a few moments on one of the many buses that whisk you down Brixton Hill. The property has planning permission granted to extend it into a two bed, further details available on request.

At 715 square feet, this one bed is the size of many two beds in the area. Beautifully presented throughout, this fantastic property offers a rich and appealing mix of charming period character and contemporary design, including original Victorian mosaic flooring in the hallway. The front room, currently occupied as an impressive reception, boasts high and intricately corniced ceilings, a large bay window adorned with recently fitted, wooden bespoke shutters, a working fireplace and restored wooden floorboards. The space has been stylishly finished by the current owners and is flooded with light, creating an attractive atmosphere and making this the ideal room in which to relax and unwind or entertain guests.

A comfortable double bedroom follows on, peacefully tucked away from the already quiet road and providing direct access out to the private garden, allowing fresh air to breeze through the space. There is a further feature fireplace on offer, a built-in wardrobe and plenty of room for additional storage. A contemporary family-sized bathroom separates the bedroom from the kitchen, which is arranged at the rear of the home. The ample-sized eat-in kitchen boasts an abundance of storage and surface space, plus a small utility room tucked away discreetly, as well as further access out onto the South-facing, landscaped, 33ft garden. The garden cannot be over-stated, a low-maintenance and aesthetically pleasing sun-trap with mature plants and a lovely patio – perfect for hosting summer parties and dining al-fresco, the space is sure to be enjoyed. The flat further benefits from a demised 22ft cellar, perfect for storing away any clutter unused on a regular basis.

On one hand you have everything that Brixton has to offer, from music venues and the culinary delights of Brixton Village to large brand-shops and cracking transport links, first stop on the Victoria Line. Multiple buses run up and down Brixton Hill, whisking you down to the tube within a few minutes and fortunately, this flat is a stone's throw from a local bus stop with buses coming and going every other minute. On the other hand, you have Clapham High Street and its multitude of restaurants and bars. There are excellent transport links with two Northern Line underground stations, Clapham High Street Station on the Overground and numerous bus routes to other areas of London. Brockwell Park and Clapham Common are both within walking distance and having the South Circular on your doorstep is perfect for anyone with a vehicle.
