Property details
Keating Estates are delighted to present to market this charming three double bedroom, three bathroom Edwardian house with a South-West facing garden, set on the sought-after Porden Road, a prime location just moments from the vibrant centre of Brixton.
Boasting a fantastic combination of character and contemporary design, this stunning home has been meticulously extended and designed to a high standard, offering an expansive living space with a thoughtfully designed layout and high-end finishes throughout.
The property spans over 1,850 square feet and is arranged over three floors. From the moment you step inside, it’s clear that this is a home which has been maintained and upgraded with great care and attention to detail. The ground floor begins with a welcoming tiled hallway which sets the tone for the rest of the house—bright, airy, and beautifully proportioned. To the front, a spacious double reception room features a stunning bay window which floods the space with natural light. The room is currently cleverly configured to allow for both a comfortable living area and a workspace with built-in bookshelves, original wooden flooring underfoot and tasteful bold décor. A sliding door separates the front and rear sections of the room, offering flexibility for those who may want to create a more private lounge or a playroom.
Towards the rear of the ground floor, you’ll find a beautifully extended kitchen and breakfast room, an impressive heart of the home. This stylish and functional space has been fitted with sleek matt finish cabinetry, brass hardware, integrated appliances, wooden worktops, and ample storage. A kitchen island sits beneath a large skylight, with a generous dining area adjacent. There is further full height storage in a modern utility matching the kitchen units, just off the kitchen as well as a downstairs WC.
Bi-folding doors off the kitchen/diner open seamlessly onto a private, South-West facing garden. This outdoor suntrap offers a peaceful retreat and is ideal for entertaining during the warmer months. With low-maintenance paving and mature planting, the garden is both practical and appealing, framed by attractive sleepers creating raised beds and adding greenery to this wonderful outdoor retreat.
Upstairs, the property continues to impress, with three large double bedrooms and three bathrooms. The principal bedroom suite is a peaceful retreat, occupying the entire top floor, boasting South-Westerly views, capturing the sunset over the rooftops. A luxurious en-suite features a huge walk-in shower, with an attractive vanity unit set below contemporary feature lighting. Eaves storage is also on offer for lesser used and seasonal items, keeping this expansive space neat and tidy.
On the first floor are two further well-proportioned double bedrooms, each offering generous proportions, soft carpeting, and large windows. The second bedroom, located at the front of the house, benefits from an en-suite shower room complete with modern tiling, a walk-in shower, and contemporary fittings. The third bedroom at the rear of the property has in-built modern wardrobes, offering full- height floor to ceiling storage. Conveniently located, the family bathroom sits adjacent to the third bedroom, equipped with a bathtub and overhead shower, finished in a neutral palette which complements the rest of the home.
Nestled within a peaceful residential street, the property is just a short walk from the energy and amenities of central Brixton, with the restaurants, supermarkets and bars of Acre Lane a stone’s throw away. This thriving area is renowned for its creative spirit, diversity, and exciting food scene.
Within a two-minute stroll is everything that Brixton has to offer, from music venues and the extremely popular Brixton Village to large brand shops and cracking transport links, including first stop on the Victoria tube line. Vibrant and diverse Clapham High Street is just a fifteen-minute stroll in the other direction, offering great restaurants, shops and nightlife. The cafes and boutique shops within Abbeville Village, Venn Street and Clapham Old Town are also all close by. Potential purchasers will benefit from both the Northern Line (Clapham North and Clapham Common tube stations) and the Victoria Line (Brixton tube station). This property has the advantage of two wonderful green open spaces within walking distance; Clapham Common and Brockwell Park with its iconic 1930s Lido.
Families will also appreciate the range of reputable local schools and nurseries within easy reach, including Sudbourne Primary, Corpus Christi Catholic School, and several Ofsted-rated outstanding secondary options. This blend of lifestyle, location, and community makes Porden Road especially appealing to those looking to settle long-term in one of London’s most vibrant boroughs.
