Property details

Keating Estates are proud to present to market a wonderfully bright and spacious two double bedroom, two bathroom apartment with two generous reception rooms, arranged over the upper floors of an attractive Victorian property on Saltoun Road. Perfectly positioned between the vibrant heart of central Brixton and the leafy tranquillity of Brockwell Park, this appealing home offers over 1,050 square feet of versatile living space.

Natural light is a running theme throughout this beautifully maintained home, enhanced by its split-level layout which provides both a superb sense of space and a considered separation of rooms. The current vendor has lovingly upgraded the property, including opening up the kitchen to create a sociable kitchen-diner, extending the principal bedroom, and investing in high-quality soundproofing and plush, extra-thick carpeting for a truly luxurious feel in this bedroom.

Upon entry, a short flight of stairs leads to a welcoming landing, immediately offering a homely sense of space. Positioned at the front of the home is the expansive kitchen-diner, spanning the width of the property and flooded with natural light from three sash windows. The stylish kitchen sits neatly to one end, featuring sleek white cabinetry, wooden worktops, wrapping around to maximise storage whilst maintaining a sociable, open atmosphere. Modern flooring underfoot mimics the warming wooden tones of the worktops and sweeps through the room into the dining area, creating a cohesive flow. This versatile room is ideal for entertaining or enjoying everyday meals and could equally be arranged as an open-plan reception if desired.

A further flight of stairs leads to the top floor, where a magnificent second reception room awaits. Skylights bathe the room in sunshine, making it a delightful space in which to relax, host friends, or add a dedicated work-from-home area. This room is generous enough to be used as a third bedroom if required, and also offers potential for further extension, subject to the necessary permissions.

Both bedrooms are spacious doubles, each nestled to the rear of the home and thoughtfully arranged on separate levels to provide privacy. The principal bedroom is particularly impressive, benefitting from the recently enhanced dimensions, top-of-the-range soundproofing, and indulgent carpeting. The second bedroom is a self-contained suite, arranged over the bottom level of the home, boasting leafy garden views and the luxury of an en-suite shower room. The main bathroom, with a bathtub and overhead rain shower, also sits between the two bedrooms and is neutrally yet tastefully finished.

Saltoun Road itself is a popular residential street with a friendly community feel. The building enjoys lovely neighbours, adding to the welcoming appeal of the home. The location of this quiet, tree-lined street is second to none: a mere two-minute walk brings you to the vibrant centre of Brixton with its array of cultural attractions, the renowned Brixton Village and Market Row, The Ritzy Cinema and a fantastic choice of independent cafes, bars, restaurants, gyms and shops. A short stroll in the other direction lies the green open space of Brockwell Park, with its iconic Lido, unrivalled sports facilities and stunning walled gardens, providing a perfect escape from city life. The amenities of Herne Hill with its village charm, farmers market, eclectic array of shops and pubs are just a short walk beyond the park. Clapham, Stockwell and Loughborough Junction are all also within walking distance.

For transport, Brixton National Rail and the start of the Victoria Line at Brixton tube station are both just a five-minute walk away, making commuting a breeze with the added benefit of tube services operating 24hours at the weekend, and an interchange to the Northern Line just one stop in. Herne Hill station is also within easy reach, offering quick links into the City, whilst regular day and night buses are on hand just moments from your front door, whisking you into other areas of the city.

With two spacious bedrooms, two bathrooms, two flexible reception rooms and beautiful presentation, as well as a bright and private outlook, split-level appeal and great location, this fantastic home will appeal to a wide range of buyers looking to balance vibrant city living with peaceful home comforts.
