Property details

Keating Estates are proud to present to market this characterful one bedroom flat for sale on Spenser Road, set within an attractive semi-detached Victorian conversion within the sought-after Poet’s Corner, moments from Brockwell Park in Herne Hill with ease of access to the amenities of Brixton.

With an abundance of windows in addition to an elevated position over the third floor, this apartment is particularly bright and airy, with an enhanced level of privacy.

Measuring over six meters in length, a sizeable open-plan reception room spans the width of the property, bursting with character from multiple large sash windows, clever shelving solutions and high corniced ceilings, plus original wooden floorboards which run through the entirety of the apartment. This stunning heart of the home is the ideal space to unwind or entertain, with the dimensions to lounge, dine and cook. The kitchen is neatly set to one end, styled in a contemporary fashion with downlights illuminating grey work surfaces spanning white gloss cabinets which provide generous storage space and a flush integration of appliances.

To the rear, a sizeable double bedroom with a built-in cupboard enjoys leafy views, a quietly peaceful space in which to relax to the sound of the birds in the gardens beyond. The bathroom is neutral with a bath plus overhead shower, heated towel rail and a striking feature sink pedestal.

For those lesser used belongings, a huge standing-height loft sits above.

The location is fantastic, with the award winning Brockwell Park at the end of the road, along with its iconic 1930’s Lido and sports facilities, it’s easy to see what makes Poets’ Corner such a desirable pocket: Herne Hill station is an eight-minute walk and Central Brixton a nine-minute stroll.
