Property details

Keating Estates are proud to present an attractive two bedroom garden flat for sale on the well-located Strathleven Road, equidistant to Clapham and Brixton with an abundance of local amenities in every direction.

The spacious reception is bathed in sunlight from a large square bay window, dressed with plantation shutters that offer privacy whilst still permitting the light to flow. A truly welcoming room which features high ceilings decorated with cornicing and fitted storage flanking the chimney breast to create the ideal room in which to unwind. A separate dine-in kitchen is well-laid out and equipped with generous storage options within sleek and contemporary cabinetry, neatly integrating appliances such as the recently fitted washer dryer. With worktop lighting to set the mood and plenty of space for a dining table this is sure to be a cherished place to cook and entertain. Feeding off the kitchen, a bespoke fitted cupboard in the hallway provides additional kitchen storage and a place to hide away footwear, just one of the handy details which elevate the appeal of this fantastic home.

The garden is a generously proportioned afternoon sun-trap, accessed from both kitchen and bedroom with the configuration of the surrounding buildings ensuring a particularly private outside space, ideal for soaking up the sun’s rays and relishing in the warmer months of the year.

The principal bedroom is a spacious double with a handy wardrobe nook, original wooden door and a lovely peaceful atmosphere enhanced by good insulation and soundproofing, plus a modern sash window overlooking the side return of the garden. Ideal for sharers, the second bedroom sits separately at the rear of the property, a versatile space which is currently a guest room and tranquil home office with French doors to the garden, allowing the fresh air to breeze in. The stylish bathroom is set in a central position for best serving all rooms, equipped with a luxurious double-ended bathtub with rain shower overhead.

This attractive home has been loving cared for by the current vendors and upgraded throughout their time of ownership with thoughtful touches such as re-decorations and thermostats added to the radiators for more efficient temperature control. A lovely property which must be viewed to be fully appreciated.

Of further appeal, precedent has been set on the street should the purchaser wish to seek the necessary permissions to extend, adding extra space and value to this stunning apartment.

The location is excellent. Strathleven Road is sandwiched between Brixton and Clapham on a residential street with large supermarkets just around the corner including Tesco, Lidl and Sainsbury’s. Acre Lane is just at the end of the street, and has gained huge popularity in recent years. Purchasers will enjoy having neighbourhood favourites such as Blank Coffee, Knife and the Hope & Anchor close by, as well as the Instagram favourite bakery - Aries Bakehouse - just moments away.

All that fun and vibrant central Brixton has to offer is a ten-minute stroll down the road, from music venues and the ever-popular Brixton Village, to POP Brixton, The Ritzy Cinema, The Upstairs Private Members Club and more. First stop on the Victoria Line at Brixton station makes travelling into central London and beyond a breeze, with the additional option of trains. Equidistant in the other direction is Clapham High Street with its fantastic shopping, eateries and nightlife, as well as the Northern Line and Overground transport links. The upmarket establishments of Abbeville Village and Clapham Old Town are also a short stroll away, as are the green open spaces of Clapham Common and Brockwell Park. Strathleven Road also forms part of the low traffic neighbourhood.

Transport links are excellent, with London Underground (Victoria Line) trains reaching central London in 12 minutes. If you’re craving green space, Brockwell Park and its famed Art Deco lido are close by. Brixton brings together all the best things about London and is one of the most vibrant and diverse places to live south of the river.
