Full Description

Keating Estates are proud to present to market this spacious two double bedroom apartment with access to a large shared roof terrace, set within an attractive period building on Brixton Road, in the very heart of central Brixton.

Benefitting from a predominantly Southerly aspect, the apartment enjoys an abundance of natural light, creating a bright and airy atmosphere throughout.

The heart of the home is the generous open-plan kitchen and reception room, beautifully presented in neutral décor with a striking feature wall that accentuates the stunning Crittall-style windows. Secondary glazing promotes a peaceful environment, while multiple lighting options enhance the inviting ambience of the space. With ample room to lounge, dine, and entertain, this sociable area is perfect for both relaxing and hosting. The contemporary kitchen is neatly arranged to one end, featuring sleek white cabinetry and a contrasting black gloss worktop that wraps around in an ergonomic L-shape, maximising the generous proportions. A useful pantry cupboard provides additional storage and completes this well-designed space.

Both bedrooms are comfortable doubles with attractive floorboards and fitted wardrobes, thoughtfully positioned at opposite ends of the apartment for maximum privacy. The principal bedroom, set to the front, enjoys two elegant feature windows, also with secondary glazing to promote a tranquil night’s sleep. The second bedroom is peacefully positioned to the rear, tucked beneath a charming skylight that fills the room with natural light. The bathroom is beautifully presented with crisp white tiling contrasting with black fixtures equipped with a luxurious walk-in rain shower with a shower screen that echoes the style of the feature windows in other parts of the home. A heated towel rail, feature floor and under sink storage add to the appeal.

The cherry on the cake is the large South-facing roof terrace, a low maintenance and sunny spot with storage shed and a 10 x 10m decked seating area ideal for soaking up the suns rays, dining al fresco, or catching up with a friendly neighbour with whom this terrace is shared. With only 5 flats in the building the terrace is large enough for all, although the current owner has rarely needed to share the space. A metal staircase leads down from the terrace to a rear entrance with bike storage. The roof terrace was completely re-roofed and beautifully decked in 2023, creating a stylish space with sweeping views across to the O2 Arena. The location offers the unique perk of occasional live music from the O2, though gigs are rare and the curfew is 11pm for most regular events, ensuring peace and quiet for residents. Security around the venue is excellent, and the terrace provides excellent people-watching opportunities, as well as highly convenient access via the rear exit for those attending events. The current owner notes that sound from the O2 has never been audible inside the flat.

The property benefits from air conditioning in every room – a rare and valuable feature as London summers grow warmer. The system can also be used for heating, providing an energy-efficient alternative to the central heating, and has been recently serviced. In addition, the home is equipped with a Hive smart heating system, allowing you to control the temperature from your phone or via the thermostat for ultimate comfort and convenience.

The building itself is well managed by a responsive Managing Agent, who works closely with the owners to ensure the development remains well maintained and appealing. The building also currently holds a healthy reserve fund of approximately £8,000.

Ideal for sharers, those wishing to grow into a property or purchasers desiring a large home office, this versatile and bright central home will appeal to a wide range of purchasers. It is rental ready with all certificates, currently achieving 8% yields.

This flat is perfect for anyone who wants to be close to the action, situated in the heart of Brixton –with local shops, coffee houses and amenities just downstairs purchasers will have everything on the doorstep, whilst being tucked away in this beautifully designed building. The upmarket Canova Hall, Bellefields restaurant and Upstairs private members club are a two minute stroll away, Brixton Village is a six-minute walk where purchasers will be able to sample the culinary delights of a different nation’s cuisine every day. Brixton tube station and Brixton Overground station are a four-minute walk, with direct trains into Victoria and the first stop on the Victoria line. The green open spaces of Max Roach Park are a two-minute stroll, with Slade Gardens, the Duck Pond and the award-winning Brockwell Park along with its iconic Lido also within walking distance. When a change of scenery takes your fancy, the property is also within a twenty-minute walk to Clapham High Street, Clapham North tube station and all that Clapham has to offer. Stockwell is also fourteen-minutes away with the interchange for the Northern and Victoria tube lines.
