Margate Road, SW2

Keating Estates are proud to present to market a remarkable four double-bedroom, two-bathroom period house, located on a quiet and peaceful street between the amenities of Clapham and Brixton. This charming home sits within a popular residential pocket of pretty Victorian terraces, equidistant from both sought-after locations, and will appeal to purchasers considering a move to either area.

Lovingly modernised and extended by its current owners in recent years, the property has been enhanced with great sensitivity to its period character. From the moment you arrive, the handsome Victorian façade sets a welcoming tone. The classic brickwork and detailing create instant kerb appeal, while the pretty pink front door provides a cheerful and distinctive touch that sets the scene for the warmth and creativity found throughout this home.

Upon entering, the attractive tiled entrance hall leads into a stunning open-plan double reception and dining room that flows beautifully from front to back. This impressive through-space showcases a perfect balance between contemporary living and period elegance, featuring two decorative fireplaces, elegant ceiling roses, and bespoke cabinetry built neatly into the alcoves. A wide bay window fitted with traditional sash windows bathes the room in natural light, creating an inviting atmosphere ideal for both entertaining and relaxation. The thoughtful layout and neutral tones enhance the sense of space and flow, while subtle design details retain the building’s Victorian soul.

Beyond the reception, the heart of the home lies in the beautifully extended kitchen, a striking yet harmonious blend of modern design and classic charm. Painted in a soft pink, the walls provide a warm backdrop to the bold blue geometric floor tiles, which add depth and character. Sleek wooden cabinetry offers ample storage, complemented by a contemporary blue-tiled splashback and integrated appliances, including a Miele oven and gas hob. A traditional butler sink enjoys lovely views over the rear garden, and overhead clerestory windows flood the space with sunlight while maintaining privacy. There’s also room for a breakfast table, creating the perfect spot for informal dining. Glazed French doors open directly onto the garden, ensuring a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living.

South-facing, the garden is a delightful suntrap and the ideal setting for morning coffees, evening drinks, or summer barbecues. Thoughtfully landscaped with planted borders and easy-to-maintain paving, it offers a low-maintenance oasis that feels a world away from the hustle and bustle of city life. This outdoor space perfectly complements the calm and inviting atmosphere of the interior.

Ascending to the first floor, the principal bedroom spans the full width of the property, offering an elegant and tranquil retreat. Painted in a bold and sophisticated blue, this luxurious bedroom combines period charm with modern comfort. A decorative fireplace acts as a focal point, while bespoke wardrobes have been fitted neatly into the alcoves to maximise storage without compromising style. Multiple sash windows flood the space with natural light, highlighting the soft carpeting underfoot and creating a serene, airy feel.

A second double bedroom overlooks the peaceful garden to the rear of the property. This charming room benefits from its own en-suite W/C and basin, providing convenience and privacy for guests or family members. Adjacent to this room is the well-appointed family bathroom, neutrally decorated and designed with both practicality and relaxation in mind.

A cleverly designed loft extension completes the accommodation, transforming the upper level into a bright and versatile space. Here, two further double bedrooms have been created, the front bedroom featuring multiple skylights, and the rear benefiting from striking city views. These rooms could easily serve as children’s bedrooms, guest rooms, or even a home office or studio, offering flexibility to suit a variety of lifestyles. The second bathroom on this floor is beautifully finished, featuring a sleek walk-in shower and high-quality fittings. Eaves storage provides an excellent solution for housing lesser-used items while keeping the main spaces tidy and uncluttered.

With over 1,450 square feet of internal living space, this family home is beautifully light and airy, boasting a stylish finish throughout. It’s ideal for buyers seeking a turnkey property that combines the charm of a period home with the comfort and efficiency of modern design.

The location is equally impressive. This peaceful and highly sought-after road is prized for its community feel and proximity to both Brixton and Clapham. The lively bars, restaurants, and cafés of Acre Lane are just a short walk away, while within an eleven-minute stroll lies everything Brixton has to offer, from the iconic music venues and ever-popular Brixton Village to large retailers and excellent transport links. In the other direction, Clapham High Street provides a vibrant mix of nightlife, shops, and eateries, as well as quick access to the Northern Line via Clapham North, Clapham Common, and Clapham South stations. The Victoria Line at Brixton offers fast connections across the city.

For those who enjoy green open spaces, both Brockwell Park and Clapham Common are within easy reach, offering scenic walking routes, tennis courts, and cafés. The charming Abbeville Village, with its independent boutiques and eateries, is also nearby.
