Property details

Keating Estates are proud to present to market this charming one double bedroom garden flat with a walk-in wardrobe, occupying the ground floors of an attractive Victorian conversion. Set on the desirable Atherfold Road in Clapham, forming part of the Low Traffic Neighbourhood, and with ease of access to Brixton and Stockwell too.

Offering generous proportions, period character and exciting future potential, this delightful home is suited to first-time buyers, downsizers and investors alike.

The elegant reception room is positioned to the front of the property, boasting a beautiful bay window which floods the space with natural light and enhances the wonderful sense of grandeur. Ornate cornicing adorns the high ceilings, whilst a characterful wood-burning stove creates a cosy focal point, making this an inviting room in which to relax or entertain. A separate kitchen provides practical preparation space whilst keeping the living and cooking areas distinct, ideal for modern day-to-day living. Sleek cabinetry topped with marbled worktops runs down both sides of the room, with checker- board floor tiling leading to French doors to the garden, complete with characterful stained glass detailing.

The private rear garden is wonderfully easy to maintain, landscaped with a sun-trap raised deck and artificial lawn. Enclosed by attractive walls and framed by mature greenery beyond, this sheltered outdoor space is perfect for al fresco dining, summer gatherings or simply unwinding in peaceful surroundings. A handy outdoor storage space adds to the appeal whilst lighting extends the usage into the evening.

To the rear of the home, the well-proportioned double bedroom enjoys a peaceful outlook over the private garden. Nestled away from the already quiet street, this tranquil retreat features dual-aspect windows and offers a calming atmosphere with neutral décor and ample space for storage. A versatile additional dressing area currently features built-in wardrobes yet has the potential to re-purpose to suit needs, such as a study or nursery space. Downstairs, the large bathroom is complete with a double-ended bathtub and a separate shower area, providing the best of both worlds.

Adding further appeal, the property offers potential to extend, subject to the necessary permissions and consents, presenting an exciting opportunity to reconfigure the layout and create a two-bedroom home in the future.

Atherfold Road is a quiet residential street ideally positioned between Clapham, Brixton and Stockwell, placing residents within easy reach of some of South London’s most vibrant neighbourhoods. Landor Road’s cafés and local amenities are moments away, while Clapham High Street is a four-minute walk offering restaurants, nightlife and an array of shops and supermarkets. Clapham High Street leads you on to the green open spaces of Clapham Common, ideal for enjoying weekend walks and sports followed by an amble around Clapham Old Town or Abbeville Village. In the opposite direction Brixton, approximately a twelve-minute walk away, provides the culinary delights of Brixton Village, the greenery of Brockwell Park.

The transport links are excellent, with the Northern Line at Clapham North just a six-minute walk and Clapham Overground just one-minute further. The Victoria Line is also on offer at Brixton and Stockwell, reachable within ten-minutes by foot. Clapham’s Super Cycle Highway is also close by, as well as the extensive bus network offering plenty of day and night services into the wider area and on into the city.

Right to manage.
