Property details
Keating Estates are delighted to present a fantastic one double bedroom apartment with a private entrance and access to a large, leafy shared garden. Nestled peacefully within a particularly attractive detached Victorian townhouse on the highly sought-after Herne Hill, the property is moments from the vibrant heart of the area, whilst benefitting from a quiet, tucked-away setting.
The home offers wonderful kerb appeal, set back from the street with a pretty front yard leading to steps to your own private entrance.
A spacious open-plan reception forms the heart of the home, with a contemporary, well-appointed kitchen occupying one side. This stylish space boasts plentiful storage, including a pantry, generous wooden worktops and integrated appliances, finished with a chic tiled splashback and atmospheric worktop lighting. There is ample room for a dining table, creating a welcoming setting for entertaining. Engineered wooden flooring in warm tones flows seamlessly into the lounge area, where three sash windows bathe the room with natural light. Comfortable dimensions and high ceilings enhance the sense of airiness, ensuring an inviting space to relax and unwind.
The bedroom is equally generous, continuing the theme of high ceilings and a calming, neutral finish. With three fitted wardrobes in tasteful tones and still plenty of space for a desk or additional storage, this peaceful retreat combines practicality with charm. A bathroom with bathtub and overhead shower, plus a separate WC, completes the interior. Conveniently positioned side by side, there is scope to combine the two rooms into one larger bathroom, should the purchaser wish, subject to the necessary permissions.
Directly opposite the private entrance, a demised storage space belonging solely to the flat has been fully tanked, making it ideal for storing items not needed day to day.
To the rear of the property lies the large, shared garden. Two seating areas are divided by a generous lawn, framed by mature borders and leafy hedging. The positioning of the surrounding buildings ensures an unusual level of privacy and additional sunlight, a rare find for London gardens. Perfect for al-fresco dining, socialising or relaxing with a book, this idyllic outdoor haven also offers plenty of opportunity for keen gardeners to get involved.
The apartment benefits from a lot on its doorstep including the amenities of Herne Hill such as Brockwell Park, the famous weekly farmers market and award-winning pubs and restaurants. Dulwich Village is also just a fifteen-minute walk away, so there is something to cater for all potential purchasers. The transport links are excellent, and this lovely home is just six minutes’ walk from Herne Hill station, with trains to London Victoria in just nine minutes, Blackfriars in twelve minutes and City Thameslink in fourteen. North Dulwich station is eight minutes’ walk away, with trains to London Bridge in fifteen minutes. Denmark Hill station is also fifteen minutes’ walk for the over ground to East London, and Brixton station is a ten-minute bus or six-minute Uber for the Victoria Line, operating 24hrs at the weekend. Regular day and night buses operate in the area, whisking you to other parts of London such as East Dulwich and Peckham.
