Property details

Keating Estates are proud to present to market a spacious two double bedroom, two bathroom Victorian maisonette on the desirable Railton Road. This appealing property is positioned within close proximity to the rolling greenery of Brockwell Park, sandwiched between Brixton and Herne Hill, whilst also being within the Low Traffic Neighbourhood.

Measuring up at 850 square feet of internal space this delightful flat has its own private entrance and feels like an inviting home from the moment you step inside, split over the upper floors creating a bright and private ambience. The home is neutrally presented, ready to move into straight away with the potential to add your own decorative mark over time.

The reception room offers generous proportions in which to lounge and dine, with two characterful sash windows bathing the space in natural light, this sizeable room is a versatile space, perfect for unwinding or entertaining guests over dinner at the table. A pretty arched doorway leads into the kitchen, boasting ample storage within white cabinetry, wrapping around to maximise surface space and create an ergonomic environment in which to cook.

Both bedrooms are comfortable doubles with neutral décor, set to differing floors for a desirable level of privacy, suited to those looking for the potential to rent out a room. Peacefully arranged over the top floor, the principal bedroom enjoys the proportions for generous storage options and a desk or dressing table if required, plus a handy storage cupboard next to the en-suite shower room. Nestled to the rear of the floor below, the second bedroom enjoys views over the neighbouring gardens, a soothing room with space for the traditional bedroom furnishings including a wardrobe. Conveniently set in the centre of the apartment, next to the second bedroom, the main bathroom is spacious, equipped with both bath and overhead shower, finished with a heated towel rail.

All in all, this gem of an apartment has tasteful yet neutral finishes throughout, ideal for a stress- free move. New Velux windows were installed last year, and the electrical outlets and fuseboard replaced this year. With a homely layout, own front door, well-proportioned rooms and fantastic location this property will appeal to a wide range of purchasers.

Railton Road has the huge benefit of Brixton at one end of the street and Herne Hill at the other, whilst also being part of the LTN.

In terms of transport links, you will be spoiled for choice, being half way between Herne Hill and Brixton stations provides the best of both worlds as you have the choice of both over-ground stations plus the start of the speedy Victoria Line, with an interchange to the Northern Line just one stop in.
