Property details
Keating Estates are proud to present to market this charming two double bedroom flat with a Juliette balcony, allocated off-street parking and access to a gated residents’ garden. Arranged over the raised ground floor of a grand detached Victorian property, the home is set back from the street on Christchurch Road, in a popular pocket with easy access to Tulse Hill, Herne Hill, Brixton and Streatham.
The impressive period façade and leafy frontage create an attractive first impression, whilst inside, the flat offers a bright and spacious feel throughout, enhanced by high ceilings, generous proportions and large windows allowing natural light to flood the interiors.
The semi open-plan reception room provides a wonderful social space, with ample room for both lounge and dining areas, positioned behind two large sash windows that rise to the full height of the room. The adjoining kitchen is thoughtfully arranged in a practical horseshoe layout, offering excellent storage and workspace, with double doors allowing the space to be separated when desired.
Both bedrooms are genuine doubles of similar size, positioned to the rear of the property overlooking the peaceful South-facing garden. One bedroom benefits from three large sash windows, while the second bedroom, currently used as a spacious home office, features a French door opening onto a Juliette balcony with leafy garden views. A centrally located bathroom is fitted with a bathtub, overhead shower and useful storage.
Externally, residents enjoy access to a beautifully maintained South-facing garden, fully gated and offering a wonderful green retreat for relaxing or entertaining. The property further benefits from allocated off-street parking, a rare and valuable addition in this desirable South London location.
The location cannot be overstated, set within easy walking distance are the amenities on offer in Tulse Hill, Herne Hill, Brixton and Streatham Hill. There are local shops, pubs, restaurants and even a pottery studio close by, with Tulse Hill train station around an eight-minute walk away with trains to London Bridge and central London via Southern Rail and the Thames Link.
