Property details

Keating Estates are proud to present to market an immaculate two double bedroom Victorian maisonette with a private South-West facing garden and its own front door in one of the most popular residential pockets between Brixton and Clapham. Kingswood Road is a neighbourly street, with an annual street party, positioned close to the action of both Brixton and Clapham, yet far enough away to retain a sense of calm, with a local pub and shops at the top of the road.

An outstanding example, this home has been cosmetically renovated by the current vendor including, yet not limited to, a new bathroom, kitchen and garden patio, full lighting rewire and three brand new cast iron radiators installed, plus a full redecoration, transforming the property into a beautifully presented and luxuriously finished haven which truly feels like a home from the moment you walk through the private front door.

A bright reception room at the front of the property offers opulent space in which to unwind, complete with a feature fireplace, bespoke shelving and high ceilings, amplifying the sense of space, with Divine Savages wallpaper, a modern cast iron radiator and original sash windows with stained glass tops, framed with plantation shutters- this divine room is sure to be used on a regular basis. Toward the rear of the property with two large sash windows is the recently fitted dine-in kitchen, boasting stylish blue cabinetry finished with brass fittings, thoughtfully designed with worktops wrapping around to a breakfast bar to create a sociable yet ergonomic space in which to cook and feast.

Both bedrooms are peacefully nestled in the centre of the home. The principal boasting original floorboards and characterful fireplace with plentiful storage within large fitted wardrobes, relishing views out onto the unextended side return. The second bedroom is also a double, ideal for use as a guest room, study or indeed to rent out if preferred. Recently refurbished the bathroom is luxurious and spacious, with both a bathtub and overhead shower, large mirror and ample storage, complete with underfloor heating for toasty toes all year round.

The icing on the cake is the private wrap-around garden a delightful South-West facing secluded spot, enjoy entertaining on the patio or unwinding on the graveled, low-maintenance seating area with a good book. In short, a superb flat with a light and airy mix of original features and contemporary design on a sought-after street, close to the action but far enough away to retain a real sense of calm. Early registration of interest advised.

Kingswood Road is a popular street that prides itself on its real sense of community, with residents enjoying annual street parties and a welcoming, neighbourly atmosphere. The property is a twenty-minute walk or swift bus ride to both Brixton and Clapham and all that these two in-demand areas have to offer. Situated a similar distance from both locations, potential purchasers will take advantage of some of the best transport links for a speedy route into central London, with the options of first stop on the Victoria Line, the Northern Line, the Overground, trains and multiples buses that run up and down both Kings Avenue and Brixton Hill. Door to door, Victoria is accessible in twenty-six minutes, Oxford Circus in twenty-nine minutes, Southbank in thirty minutes and London Bridge in thirty-two minutes. Potential purchasers will benefit from fantastic local amenities, a few examples include the green open spaces of Brockwell Park and Clapham Common, and all that Brixton Village, POP Brixton, Clapham High Street and Clapham Old Town have to offer in terms of food and festivities. Abbeville Village is a short stroll through the quiet residential streets, just the other side of Kings Avenue, and the Venn Street Market by Clapham Common tube is the perfect place to whittle down a few hours on a Saturday afternoon.
