It’s crowning glory is Brockwell Park, one of the most beautiful parks in London, and its Art Deco lido and café, which are popular all year round.

Property details
Keating Estates are proud to present to marker this appealingly bright two double bedroom apartment with a Juliet balcony, nestled quietly over the top floor of a period property, moments from Brockwell Park.
To the front of the flat, the reception room is spacious and neutrally presented with alcove shelving adding a homely charm, a large West-facing window captures the afternoon sun leading to sunset skies, with generous proportions in which to unwind, entertain or dine with space for a table. The separate kitchen sits adjacent, flooded with natural light from above with two further South-facing windows creating an inviting atmosphere throughout the day. Cook up a tasty treat in this contemporary kitchen which offers ample storage and a sleek finish. If open-plan living is preferred, given the positioning of these rooms, there is the potential to combine into one large reception, subject to the necessary permissions.
A rarity for period conversions, both bedrooms are good sized doubles set to the rear of the property away from the street. The principle bedroom has built in wardrobes and a Juliette balcony with double doors that can be flung open to creating a dreamy setting for enjoying peaceful nightcaps or lazy mornings with leafy views. Offering each bedroom an increased level of privacy ideal for sharers, the bedrooms are separated by a modern bathroom, neutrally well-presented, complete with a bath with overhead shower, ideal for a soak in the tub after a stroll around the Park.
Not to be underestimated, there is a generous amount of storage on offer, both in the loft space above the flat and a shared external storage to the front of the building.
