Property details

Keating Estates are proud to present to market a beautiful two double bedroom Victorian conversion with a private garden, set within the ever-desirable Nightingale Triangle on Temperley Road, a quiet residential street, just a stone’s throw from Clapham Common and the amenities of Balham.

This charming home offers approximately 600 square feet of well-appointed accommodation, thoughtfully laid out to maximise space and light. The generous reception room is tastefully decorated in soft blush tones and features a characterful decorative mantlepiece, plush neutral carpet and bespoke alcove shelving. A delightful built-in bench seat provides a cosy reading nook, while a French door open directly onto the private garden, creating an effortless flow for indoor-outdoor living and entertaining.

Flowing seamlessly from the reception is a stylish fitted kitchen, boasting green shaker-style cabinetry topped with generous worktops down both sides, and ample storage provided at both base and wall level. A large picture window draws in natural light and offers garden views, while warm terracotta-style tiled flooring adds rustic charm to this homely space.

The private garden is a tranquil haven with mature planting and exceptional potential. Whether left as a gardener’s paradise or redesigned as a sleek, low-maintenance retreat, the space is perfect for al fresco dining and summer gatherings. A shed provides practical storage, and permission previously granted for a garden room adds exciting scope for future enhancement.

The principal bedroom is a bright and elegant sanctuary, generously proportioned with high ceilings, a bay window, soft carpet underfoot, built-in wardrobes and a statement hanging light fixture, all contributing to a sophisticated yet serene ambience. The second bedroom, also a comfortable double, is currently arranged as a nursery and home office, complete with fitted storage and a built-in desk garden views down the side return, making it wonderfully versatile for modern living. The bathroom boasts a distinctive orange feature wall and ceiling, accentuating the rich tones of the Moroccan tiled floor. A full-sized bathtub with overhead shower caters for both quick weekday routines and relaxing evening soaks.

Completing this lovely home, the wide hallway offers generous storage options and an inviting entrance to this well-considered apartment. Notably, precedent has been set on the street for extending into the side return, presenting a promising opportunity for buyers seeking to expand the living space in the future, subject to the necessary permissions.

Temperley Road enjoys a prime location within the sought-after Nightingale Triangle, combining village-like tranquillity with vibrant connectivity. The green expanses of Clapham Common and Wandsworth Common are just a short stroll away, offering sports pitches, tennis courts, cafés, ponds and playgrounds. An abundance of shops, eateries and amenities are within walking distance, including the boutiques and restaurants of Northcote Road, Balham High Street, and Clapham South. A large Waitrose and the members’ club Little House Balham (Soho House) add further appeal.

Excellent transport links are close at hand via Clapham South (Northern Line), Balham (Northern Line and National Rail) and Wandsworth Common stations, offering direct access to Clapham Junction, Victoria, Waterloo and Gatwick Airport. Growing families are well served by a number of highly regarded schools, including Holy Ghost Primary School, Broomwood Schools, Thomas’s Clapham and Hornsby House, all within easy reach.

This beautiful home blends period character, practicality and future potential in an enviable location.

Balham area highlights

Balham is buzzing with independent boutiques, cafes, coffee shops and happening restaurants. It has a slightly more relaxed, village feel than neighbouring Clapham and Brixton, but with enough going on to satisfy everyone's interests. Transport links are excellent, with both London Underground (Northern Line) and National Rail services from Balham Station. The green, open spaces of Tooting, Clapham and Wandsworth Common are all within walking distance. Add to this a strong community spirit and some great local schools, and it's clear to see why Balham has twice been named in The Sunday Times' list of Best Places to Live!
