Property details

Keating Estates are proud to present this beautifully presented one bedroom split-level flat, arranged over the upper floors of an attractive Victorian conversion on the highly sought-after Byrne Road, moments from the heart of Balham. Benefitting from an impressive open-plan reception and generous storage, this stylish and spacious home in a tranquil yet well-connected location is sure to appeal.

Accessed via a private entrance on the second floor, a wide hallway leads to a spacious double bedroom at the rear of the property, offering excellent separation from the main living spaces above—ideal for a peaceful night’s sleep. The bedroom is a generously sized and beautifully presented space, quietly tucked away to create a calming retreat from the buzz of Balham. Bright and inviting, the room is bathed in natural light from a large sash window, with leafy views of neighbouring gardens enhancing the tranquil atmosphere. Soft neutral tones complement the plush carpet underfoot. There is ample room for standard bedroom furnishings, as well as additional freestanding furniture. The space also benefits from built-in wardrobes and currently accommodates built-in bedside shelving and clever storage solutions without compromising on comfort.

Adjacent is the bathroom, a modern space finished in neutral tones, featuring a full-sized bathtub with an overhead shower and offering a clean, contemporary feel.

Stairs lead up to the top floor, where the flat truly comes into its own. The heart of the home is the fantastic open-plan reception, dining, and living area—a large, light-filled space. With clearly defined areas for relaxing and entertaining, it’s a layout that suits modern day-to-day living and hosting alike.

Just off the reception sits the semi-open kitchen, neatly tucked away and finished in a timeless, stylish design. With elegant cabinetry, plentiful storage, and generous worktop space, the kitchen allows for efficient meal preparation, with thoughtful zoning that keeps it separate yet connected to the main living area.

One of the standout features of this property is the abundance of storage—far more than typically found in one-bedroom flats. Large, easily accessible eaves cupboards run off the main reception area, providing extensive concealed storage, ideal for suitcases, seasonal items, and more, keeping the living areas beautifully clutter-free.

The current owner has undertaken a number of thoughtful upgrades, including replacing all the laminate wooden flooring and adding soundproofing insulation beneath, significantly improving both comfort and acoustics. The stairs have also been recently refurbished, with the risers completely replaced and decorated, giving the space a refreshed and polished finish overall.

A beautifully finished flat with a welcoming feel, large footprint, tonnes of storage and a brilliant location to match.

Byrne Road is a warm and welcoming community where neighbours enjoy a friendly, inclusive atmosphere, coming together annually for street gatherings. Residents benefit from the peaceful charm of the street while being just a short stroll from the vibrant heart of Balham. Located a short walk from the green open spaces of Tooting Common and just seven minutes on foot to Balham Station (Northern Line and National Rail), the property offers easy access to both Central London and the wide-ranging amenities of Balham High Road. These include an array of popular cafés, restaurants, supermarkets, and boutique shops. Hildreth Street and Balham High Road offer everything from brunch spots to artisan bakeries, gyms, wine bars, and more, making this one of South West London’s most desirable neighbourhoods for professionals and couples alike.

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!
