Property details

Keating Estates are proud to present to market an appealing and versatile two double bedroom apartment, arranged over the first floor of a charming Victorian property on Croxted Road, one of the most popular and friendly residential streets sandwiched between Herne Hill and Dulwich Village. As you approach, the handsome Victorian façade sets a welcoming tone, offering instant kerb appeal with its classic brickwork and decorative detailing, featuring a pretty blue door.

With almost 800 square feet of internal space, you can feel the potential from the moment you step inside the apartment. With the entrance on the ground floor leading up to the living spaces on the first floor, offering a bright and versatile layout.

This spacious apartment has a been a cherished home, having been owned by the current vendor for over twenty years. At the rear of the home sits a cosy reception room, featuring a sash window and the proportions to accommodate a comfortable chaise sofa. Adjacent to the reception, the separate kitchen is well-appointed with countertops and cabinetry down both sides, offering plenty of storage and worktop space whilst framing the dining area. There is also space for an additional sofa area, enhancing the sociability.

Subject to permissions, the position of the kitchen next to the reception means there is the potential for the purchaser to open out into one expansive space if open plan living is preferred. There is also the potential to simply re-purpose the principal bedroom into the main reception room, freeing up the current reception as a home office, or smaller bedroom.

Currently, two well-proportioned double bedrooms are set to the opposing side of the property, each neutrally decorated. The principal is particularly impressive, spanning the width of the home with a flurry of windows, and a bright ambience. Still a sizeable double, the second bedroom features fitted wardrobes and a desk in addition to the traditional bedroom furnishings. A neutral bathroom serves the home, complete with a bathtub with overhead shower, sitting adjacent to a separate WC, ideal for busy morning routines, or with the option to combine into one larger bathroom if desired.
