Palace Road, SW2

Keating Estates are proud to present to market an incredibly charming three-bedroom apartment with a large residents’ garden, within a unique locally listed Arts and Crafts building dating from the 1880s and set back from the tree-lined Palace Road.

Sure to wow guests, a large communal entrance hall is grand and impressive, featuring a winding open stairwell, panelled walls, stained glass windows and a sweeping curved ceiling.

The apartment itself is equally as impressive and packed full of character. This incredibly unique and attractive home occupies an elevated first-floor position and measures over 1,000 square feet. With windows on all four sides, the flat is a wonderfully bright and spacious home with leafy views.

At the heart of the home are a particularly impressive kitchen/diner and a generously proportioned living room. Double doors connect the two spaces, creating an exceptional sense of flow and an impressive feeling of space, while stained-glass features, high ceilings and a working fireplace add to the distinctive country-house character. Measuring over five metres in length, the spacious living room provides an elegant and comfortable principal reception space, centred around the original fireplace, ideal for entertaining or simply curling up with a good book in front of the fire.

Boasting even larger proportions, the kitchen/diner is a wonderful social space, with a country-style wooden kitchen set to one end and ample room for a dedicated dining area to the other. This is a truly beautiful space in which to cook and host, enhanced further by dual-aspect sash windows.

Three well-proportioned bedrooms provide excellent flexibility, offering scope for use as bedrooms, a study or guest accommodation. Two of the bedrooms feature charming period fireplaces, and all three have soothingly neutral décor. The bathroom is conveniently set between the bedrooms, a bright space with a corner bathtub with overhead shower, framed by white tiling with vibrant touches of blues and aquas adding character.

If all this weren’t enough, the cherry on the cake is the large front garden, with a well-maintained lawn offering ample space for children to play or to lay out a blanket and catch up with a friendly neighbour with whom this spot is shared.

Palace Road is a leafy residential street, and this home is just around the corner from Hillside Gardens, a lovely green space and playground, with an entrance to Brockwell Park also just a fifteen-minute stroll away. The park is lauded as London’s best outdoor space by locals, with its iconic 1930s Lido among its myriad attractions. For those with children, the Ofsted Outstanding Streatham Wells Primary School is just a stone’s throw away, as is Hitherfield Primary School.

The amenities of Tulse Hill are just an eight-minute walk away with cafes, yoga, pottery and pubs all on offer as well as Tulse Hill train station with direct trains to London Bridge and central London via Southern and Thameslink. Streatham’s vibrant high street with an array of restaurants, cafes, bars, popular schools and shopping facilities is within easy reach, whilst Herne Hill and West Norwood are also within walking distance and offer a village feel and a wide range of amenities.
