Property details

Keating Estates are proud to present to market a beautifully presented one-bedroom flat, arranged over the upper floors of an attractive Victorian conversion on the highly sought-after Holmewood Gardens, a quiet residential street which surrounds a pretty garden square, bringing the community together.

Upon entering the home from the first floor, a private internal staircase leads to a welcoming and well-appointed top floor, which benefits from a bright and private ambience throughout.

Forming the heart of the home, the open-plan reception room and kitchen spans the full width of the front of the building and is flooded with natural light through multiple Velux windows. This generous and versatile space lends itself equally well to relaxing, entertaining or working from home. The kitchen is neatly positioned along the back wall and finished to a contemporary standard with a stylish subway-tile splashback, integrated white goods and ample storage. The design ensures a practical and enjoyable cooking experience while maintaining the room’s seamless, uncluttered aesthetic.

Down a small flight of stairs lies the spacious double bedroom, tucked peacefully at the rear of the property and offering a tranquil retreat away from the main living space. An elegant sash window frames leafy views and allows natural light to pour in, creating a calm and restful environment. With generous proportions, the room provides more than enough space for storage and furnishings while still feeling light and uncluttered.

Adjacent is the well-appointed bathroom, finished in a fresh, neutral style. A window ensures natural ventilation and light, and the suite includes a shower over the bath, making it equally suited to quick morning showers or long evening soaks. A particularly useful feature is the access from the bathroom to the eaves storage, providing a discreet and practical solution for stowing away lesser-used items. This hidden space is ideal for keeping suitcases, seasonal clothing or household essentials neatly out of sight, ensuring the main living areas remain clear and clutter-free.

In short, this is an enticing home ready to move into on a sought-after street with upmarket amenities in every direction.

Situated on a friendly and neighbourly road, the home overlooks the green open spaces of Holmewood Gardens. This pretty garden square is essentially a large garden you do not have to tend, with a designated area for dog exercise, a children’s playground and open grass for communal events, a leafy spot that brings local residents together. The Neighbourhood Association has planted an orchard and is actively involved in caring for the area, as well as organising many social events including summer parties, winter festivals and Halloween activities. The gardens have also played host to free concerts from the Brixton Chamber Orchestra and the 606 Jazz Club.

Nearby, there are both chain and independent shops, bakeries, cafés, chemists, doctors and a gem of a pub, the Elm Park Tavern, just a five-minute walk away. Everything that Brixton has to offer is a fifteen-minute walk from the property, from music venues and the culinary delights of Brixton Village to large-brand shops and excellent transport links, including the first stop on the Victoria Line. Regular day and night buses run up and down Brixton Hill, with nine routes whisking you to the tube within ten minutes and on into the city. In the other direction, you have Streatham High Street just a nine-minute walk away, with its multitude of restaurants and bars. Brockwell Park is a ten-minute stroll, with Tooting and Balham Common and Clapham Common also within walking distance. Having the South Circular on your doorstep and the option for on-street permit parking the location is perfect for those with a vehicle.
