Property details

Keating Estates are proud to present to market this beautifully presented two double bedroom apartment with a Juliette balcony, offering an exceptional combination of space, light and contemporary design. Set on the corner of Brixton Water Lane and Crownstone Road this lovely home is nestled between the amenities of Herne Hill and Brixton, with an entrance to Brockwell Park just along the street.

Offered to market chain-free and situated on the third floor of a modern building, the property extends to over 800 square foot and enjoys a wonderfully bright and airy feel throughout, with excellent sound insulation and a sense of calm despite being well-connected.

The heart of the home is the impressive reception room, measuring almost five metres in length and thoughtfully designed with bespoke shelving, cosy carpets and ample space for a dedicated study area if required. A large glazed door and adjoining windows open onto a Juliette balcony, allowing natural light to flood the room and creating a lovely sense of openness. Adjacent, the separate kitchen diner is both stylish and practical, with elegant gloss cabinetry running the length of one wall and plenty of room for a dining table. Currently arranged beneath feature lighting, the space provides a welcoming setting for both relaxed evenings and entertaining.

Both bedrooms are genuine doubles, with the principal bedroom being particularly generous in proportion. Set away from the main living areas, it benefits from dual-aspect windows, a peaceful outlook and a bright, soothing ambience. The second bedroom is currently arranged as a spacious home office but offers excellent flexibility and can easily be adapted to suit a variety of needs. The bathroom continues the home’s tasteful aesthetic, finished in neutral tones with a bathtub, overhead rainfall shower and stylish black fittings.

This particular apartment also enjoys a position within the building which boasts private views from the windows compared to others in building. The soundproofing promotes a peaceful living environment, with minimal noise from both neighbouring apartments and the main road when windows are closed. Residents benefit from secure ground-floor bike storage with access from Crownstone Road, high energy efficiency and a strong sense of community.

The location is extremely convenient, Brixton Water Lane is nestled between the amenities of Brixton and Herne Hill with the fantastic benefit of an entrance to Brockwell Park moments away on the same road. The beautiful greenery of this award-winning park will not disappoint, along with its iconic 1930s Lido, excellent sports facilities, popular café and more. There is a large supermarket, and various local heroes such as Rap Char, The Hootenanny, Maremma and Naughty Piglets right on your doorstep. It is also located a ten-minute walk to central Brixton with the excellent transport links on offer at the tube and overground station, in addition to the wide variety of hotspots and eateries which vibrant Brixton is famous for. The amenities in leafy and village-esque Herne Hill are also a pleasant ten-minute stroll through Brockwell Park, including the Thameslink train connections, and the property will appeal to purchasers considering moving to both of these in-demand areas.

Chain-free.
