Brixton is a melting pot of culture, cuisine and creativity. An explosion of inventive, new restaurants, pop-ups, fashion stores and art galleries sit alongside the many great pubs, music venues and nightclubs that have been around for years. Transport links are excellent, with London Underground (Victoria Line) trains reaching central London in 12 minutes. If you’re craving green space, Brockwell Park and its famed Art Deco lido are close by. Brixton brings together all the best things about London and is one of the most vibrant and diverse places to live south of the river.

Property details
Keating Estates are proud to present to market an exceptional two double bedroom, two bathroom new build apartment, with a South-West facing private terrace. Situated on Arodene Road, a desirable Victorian residential street in the heart of the Rush Common conservation area, within walking distance of both Brixton and Herne Hill, a short stroll to Brockwell Park.
This remarkable newly built home is end of terrace, forming part of ‘The Residency’ an exclusive development of just two houses and four flats, thoughtfully designed with stunning attention to detail, seamlessly blending traditional with contemporary style to create a sense of pure luxury. Chic yet inviting sustainable homes, engineered to meet the requirements of modern living.
With over 860 square feet of internal space this sizeable first floor apartment boasts a wonderfully bright and airy open-plan reception room with modern down lighting and features reminiscent of period charm such as high ceilings, a characterful fireplace and engineered timber flooring in warming shades of bracken oak. A fantastic entertaining space sure to wow guests, there is comfortable room to lounge in style, dine around a large table or cook up a tasty treat in the superb kitchen. Contemporary with heritage nods, the bespoke kitchen integrates Smeg appliances and generous storage within sage green shaker-style cabinetry, topped with white Carrara marble composite work surfaces and finished with antique brass fittings. A sociable island enhances the ergonomics whilst providing a breakfast bar for a more casual dining option making this expansive room a true heart of the home.
Large pane glass sliding doors allow light and fresh air to breeze through the room, creating a continuous transition to the private terrace, ideal for hosting al-fresco. South-West facing this sunny haven feels worlds away from the hustle and bustle of city life. A rare and particularly private spot this low-maintenance terrace is perfect for a morning coffee with the paper, watching the sunset with a relaxing tipple or soaking up the stars, city lights and seasonal firework displays.
Set to the opposing side of the property, both bedrooms are comfortable doubles quietly nestled away from the social hub of the home, with a calming yet airy ambience enhanced with plush carpets. Clad in timber panelling to create a warm and luxurious feel, the principal bedroom has fitted wardrobes optimising space and comfort plus an opulent en-suite with a walk-in shower. The main bathroom is equipped with both an overhead shower and services the remainder of this fantastic home. The period styling has been continued throughout both of the bathrooms, exposed period shower risers are combined with Victorian-style penny mosaic floors, and set against beautiful artisanal wall tiles. Sumptuous bathtubs and chic vanity units provide touches of luxury. Not to be underestimated, there is an abundance of storage in the hallway of this appealing apartment.
Exceptionally designed with the utmost energy efficiency in mind, the apartment benefits from excellent sound and heat insulation, state-of-the-art Air Source heat pumps and underfloor heating throughout, whilst a ten-year Build-Zone warranty provides further peace of mind. The apartments are also equipped with video entry phone systems, secure communal bike storage and PV solar panels that contribute to the running of the communal areas.
The location on Arodene Road is fantastic, with the positioning ensuring additional privacy from surrounding homes. Arodene Road is a leafy residential street with a true sense of community, a neighbourly road forming part of the low-traffic neighbourhood. This sought-after street is located a short walk to the centre of Brixton offering the culinary delights of Brixton Village and a wide array of cultural entertainment choices whilst also being the first stop on the Victoria line. Moments away is a large supermarket and various cafes, pubs and restaurants, such as Naughty Piglets, Stir Coffee and the Elm Park Tavern. The green, open spaces of Brockwell Park are also a stone’s throw away, along with its iconic 1930’s Lido and fantastic sports facilities. The independent eateries and pretty market plus the Thameslink trains in village-esq Herne Hill are a pleasant ten-minute stroll through Brockwell Park and the property will appeal to purchasers considering moving to both of these in-demand areas.
There are few properties in the area that have as many positive attributes, and this larger-than-average home could be moved into stress-free, benefiting from the immaculate finish and thoughtful consideration of design, with proximity to all the action the area has to offer – a rare find. Early registration of interest is advised in this off-plan opportunity.
Chain-free. Share of freehold (999-year leases with a share of freehold granted upon the sale of the final unit).
