Property details
This spacious split-level one-bedroom apartment with generous outside space and off-street parking is securely nestled on the first and second floors of a grand double-fronted property, set back from the street and perfectly positioned just a two-minute stroll from Brockwell Park. The flat has been lovingly cared for by the current owner, including a new roof in 2021, and would make an ideal first home.
Enjoying a sunny aspect, the bright reception room is set to the rear of the property, enjoying leafy views over the garden below. Contemporary sash windows bathe this sizeable room with natural light, with generous proportions on offer to accommodate a substantial lounge area and space for a large dining table, this neutrally decorated reception is the room ideal for the new purchaser to decorate as they wish, making it perfect for entertaining or creating a calming oasis in which to unwind.
Ideal for hiding away those essential items not used on a daily basis, hallway storage quietly separates the social reception room from the bedroom opposite. The double bedroom enjoys a peaceful setting, tucked back from the street, offering built-in storage and completing the upper floor of this fantastic split-level home.
On the first floor, a separate modern kitchen provides everything you need in terms of practicality, with partially integrated appliances and ample storage. Chic gloss cabinetry in a combination of slate grey and bright white bounce the light around the room whilst tastefully practical flooring finishes the space creating an ideal, low maintenance space for any budding chef. Adjacent sits the bathroom, complete with storage and equipped with both shower and bath for those moments only a soak in the tub will do.
A sprawling South-facing garden benefits from sun throughout the day, maintained by a gardener so all you have to do is enjoy, this marvelous space is ideal for whiling away the summer months with friends or the occasional neighbour with whom this leafy spot is shared. Garden sheds provide storage for bikes and garden items.
Off-street parking is also on offer on a first come first served basis, directly outside within the front grounds of this handsome building.
Trinity Rise has the huge benefit of being situated close to the rolling greenery of Brockwell Park, located just a two-minute stroll away. The fantastic amenities and transport links in both Herne Hill and Tulse Hill are also within easy reach in under thirteen minutes, with trains to London Bridge, Elephant and Castle and central London via Southern Rail and the Thames Link.
