Property details

Keating Estates are proud to present to market a generously sized two double bedroom flat with off-street parking, perfectly located on a leafy residential road, close to the centre of Herne Hill. This lovely apartment occupies the first floor of a converted grand Victorian townhouse, with views of St Paul’s Church.

Lovingly cared for by the current vendor the property has been significantly enhanced primarily between 2021-2022, including a full re-decoration, new kitchen and bathroom, new double glazed sash windows to the rear and new carpets in the bedrooms. With over 850 square feet of internal living space on offer, the property boasts high ceilings in every room which adds to appealing light and airy atmosphere throughout.

The reception room is the heart of the home with ample space to relax and dine, flooded with natural light through a South-facing square bay window, creating a real feature with stunning views of the characterful church opposite. Recently fitted, the kitchen is a great size, neatly integrated including dishwasher and washer dryer. Worktops wrap around to maximise countertop space, finished with a sink set below the large window, a lovely environment in which to cook.

Both bedrooms are generous doubles, beautifully presented with cosy carpets and set to opposing sides of the property for a desirable level of privacy from one another. The principal bedroom is particularly spacious, with built-in wardrobes running the length of the room and space for a desk or dressing table if required. With a sumptuous spa-like quality the bathroom features marbled tones, ideal for a relaxing soak in the bathtub with shower overhead, plus a luxurious vanity unit and heated towel rail. Convenient for sharers and guests alike, the WC sits separately across the hall.

The icing on the cake, there is the rarity of an off-street parking space within the driveway.

This attractive home will appeal to a wide range of prospective purchasers, including those looking for the potential to grow into the home in the future and those wishing to rent out a room.

The amenities of Herne Hill like Brockwell Park, the famous weekly farmers market and award-winning pubs and restaurants are all within minutes by foot. Dulwich Village is also just a fifteen-minute walk away, so there is something to cater for all potential purchasers. The property is just six minutes’ walk from Herne Hill station, with trains to London Victoria in just nine minutes, Blackfriars in twelve minutes and on to Farringdon and St Pancras.
