Keating Estates are proud to present to market a beautifully versatile two double bedroom, split-level Victorian maisonette with its own entrance and a large landscaped garden, located in a desirable residential pocket between Clapham and Brixton.
Lovingly cared for this wonderful home spans almost 775 square feet of internal space, retaining period features whilst incorporating contemporary finishes to create a beautiful apartment which feels like home from the moment you walk through the private entrance.
Boasting a versatile layout this two bedroom home is currently lived in as a large one bedroom apartment, with well-proportioned rooms throughout. Currently a dining room, the reception is a bright space with charming features including high ceilings and floorboards which have been stripped back to their original patina. A large glass door leads out to the spectacular private garden.
A true labour of love the garden has been landscaped by a gardener working at RHS Garden Wisley, creating a stunning outdoor haven which is easy to maintain. This sprawling outside space comprises of a paved patio, a composite raised deck seating area and an Astroturf lawn adding year-round greenery. This beautiful space is bordered by bark, with three large Red Robin Pleaching and a multi-stemmed Prunus Taihaku, a lovely spot ready to be enjoyed the moment the weather permits.
Ideal for al-fresco dining, the separate kitchen also boasts access out to the garden. The kitchen features shaker style cabinetry topped with wooden worktops, wrapping around in an ergonomic layout to make this an enjoyable place to cook up a tasty treat, enhanced by leafy views and worktop lighting features.

Peacefully nestled downstairs, the principal bedroom is soothingly presented with plentiful storage within bespoke fitted wardrobes. Upstairs, the second bedroom is currently utilised as the second reception room. With ornately corniced ceilings and original floorboards creating a lavishly homely space, this lovely room is easily repurposed back into a double bedroom if desired. Wonderfully opulent, the bathroom is traditionally styled with a free-standing claw foot bath with overhead shower.
Practical yet beautifully formed the lower landing space has been transformed into a utility cloakroom, keeping the laundry tucked away from the social spaces and providing generous storage space. If all this weren’t enough, there is additional storage in a vast store running under the reception room, accessed from the stairway and ideal for hiding away those lesser used yet essential items.
