Keating Estates are proud to present this wonderful two double bedroom maisonette with a private garden, ideally located just a short walk from Herne Hill station, providing swift and convenient access to Central London. Brixton is also within walking distance, offering a dynamic mix of restaurants, bars, and local amenities, including the Victoria Line at Brixton Tube station.

At the heart of the property is the expansive open-plan reception and kitchen/dining area. This bright and inviting space has been thoughtfully designed to accommodate both everyday living and entertaining, with distinct zones for lounging, dining, and cooking. The kitchen features white gloss handleless cabinetry, a bold orange splashback, sleek worktops, and integrated appliances including a Neff oven. The sink is perfectly positioned to overlook the window, creating a light and welcoming workspace. Two sets of bi-fold doors open onto the private garden, allowing for a seamless indoor-outdoor flow.

The reception area is flooded with natural light, thanks to the numerous windows and the bi-fold doors, and features continuous flooring throughout, enhancing the sense of space and cohesion. The generous proportions allow for versatile furniture arrangements, catering to a variety of lifestyles and entertaining needs.

Directly accessed via both the reception and the bedrooms, the patio-walled private garden blends charm and functionality in perfect harmony. Framed by characterful brick walls and mature climbing greenery, this outdoor haven offers a rare sense of seclusion. The generous paved terrace provides the ideal space for al fresco dining or entertaining, with room for outdoor furniture and potted plants. An electric-powered awning extends from outside the living area, providing invaluable shade during hot weather. This outdoor space feels like a natural extension of the living area and significantly enhances the lifestyle appeal of the property.

Both bedrooms are well-sized doubles, offering comfortable and flexible accommodation. The principal bedroom is a true highlight, featuring a wall of built-in storage and patio doors leading directly to the garden, creating a private retreat with convenient outdoor access. The second bedroom is a generous double with its own doors opening to the garden, making it an ideal guest room, home office, or child’s bedroom.

The bathroom combines style and practicality, featuring a contemporary walk-in shower, a separate bath, and storage beneath the basin. Neutral tiling and sleek fixtures create a bright, welcoming atmosphere, while high-set windows provide excellent ventilation and allow natural light to flood the space without compromising privacy.

The location further elevates the property’s appeal. The pubs, cafés and amenities within the Village-esque Herne Hill are moments away, with Herne Hill station within a two-minute stroll offering trains to Victoria, Blackfriars, and Wimbledon via Southern Rail and the Thames Link. Brockwell Park, one of South London’s most beloved green spaces, is nearby, offering acres of parkland, a historic lido, and panoramic city views.
