Property details

Keating Estates are proud to present to market this bright and airy one double-bedroom flat, nestled on the top floor of one of the handsome Victorian terraces on Helix Road, a highly sought-after residential road, perfectly located in the heart of the Josephine conservation area, a ten-twelve minute walk from the amenities and transport links in central Brixton.

A complete blank canvas, the apartment is ready to move into straight away yet with the potential to add your own decorative touches over time, enhancing the lovely features and brining the home to life. Set to the upper floors the home benefits from a bright and private ambience throughout.

A gorgeous open plan kitchen reception is spacious with plenty of character and room for a dining area and living area without feeling confined or cramped. The kitchen neatly wraps around, maximising storage and worktop space. Skylights allow plenty of natural light to flood in whilst the lofty ceilings add to the charm.

Down a small flight of stairs you find the spacious double bedroom, peacefully set to the rear of the home with carpeted floors and leafy views over the nearby gardens. Adjacent, the neutral bathroom is equipped with a shower over the bath, ideal for a soak in the bubbles after a stroll around nearby Brockwell Park.

In short, an enticing home packed full of potential on a sought-after street with amenities in every direction.

The property is located in a quiet and leafy part of vibrant and thriving Brixton, on tree-lined Helix Road. Situated a ten-twelve minute stroll to all that central Brixton has to offer, purchasers also have the popular establishments on Brixton Hill within touching distance, including F Mondays, Stir Coffee, Pizza Brixton and the White Horse Pub. This exquisite flat is ideal for anyone who wants to be close to the action while maintaining a sense of calm. The new owner will have the best of both worlds with everything on offer in the hustle and bustle of central Brixton, yet able to retire to the quieter village-like community that has been developed around Brixton Hill. First stop on the Victoria Line, Brixton tube station is a stroll down the hill, whisking you into central London and the City within a few minutes. The buses also offer a great alternative to the tube and train stations, with regular day and night buses on Brixton Hill. The location is ideal with the green, open spaces of Brockwell Park within a five-minute walk. A pleasant fifteen-minute saunter across the park brings you to Herne Hill station with access to the Thameslink into the city and the many pubs, cafes, restaurants and Sunday market of leafy Herne Hill. The village-feel continues with easy access to Dulwich Village, East Dulwich and trendy Peckham, catering for the wants and needs of the majority of potential purchasers. In the other direction, the popular establishments of Acre Lane are a fifteen-minute walk, leading on into vibrant Clapham.

Chain-free. A share of the freehold will be granted upon the sale of the final flat in the building.
