Property details
Keating Estates are proud to present to market this charming two bedroom Victorian maisonette with a private wrap-around garden, set on the sought-after Brading Road in Brixton. Benefitting from its own front door, this characterful home offers an appealing blend of period charm and modern convenience, with bright and airy interiors.
An outstanding example, the home has been cosmetically renovated by the current vendor transforming the property into a beautifully presented and haven which truly feels like a home from the moment you step through the private entrance. This uplift included, yet is not limited to, kitchen, garden and floor upgrades, a new bathroom, redecoration, and new windows and boiler which each have time remaining on their warranties.
The heart of the home is the spacious reception room which boasts beautifully preserved original floorboards, high corniced ceilings, and two large sash windows that flood the space with natural light. A restored Victorian fireplace adds to the period charm, with the potential to be fully operational subject to repairs to the chimney lining. Set to the rear of the home, the separate dine-in kitchen has been thoughtfully designed with integrated appliances, including a dishwasher, and high-quality work surfaces. Ample storage frames the dining area, ensuring practicality without compromising on style – enjoy dining to pretty garden views.
A large pane French door leads seamlessly to the private garden, creating a wonderful indoor-outdoor flow, ideal for hosting BBQs or simply unwinding. The garden itself is a tranquil haven, featuring a paved seating area with planters at the rear and high-quality astroturf, providing a lush green outlook all year round.
Both bedrooms are quietly tucked away from the street, offering a peaceful retreat, yet remain well-separated for privacy. The principal bedroom enjoys original wooden flooring, a charming dressing table set within the chimney nook, and views over the astro lawn. The second bedroom is a versatile space, currently used as a nursery but equally suited as a home office or guest room. The bathroom is a luxurious sanctuary, complete with a bathtub, an overhead rain shower, and finished with stylish yet neutral tiling. A reeded glass window allows for natural light whilst maintaining privacy.
Brading Road enjoys a lovely community feel, with an active WhatsApp group should you wish to join, where the neighbours come together to help one another. Purchasers have the popular establishments on Brixton Hill within touching distance, including F Mondays, Stir Coffee, Pizza Brixton and the ever-popular White Horse Pub, as well as neighbourhood favourite, the Elm Park Tavern, just up the road and incredible chocolate-almond croissants served at Le Dailycorner Café at the top of the street. This location is great for anyone who wants to be close to the action yet wants to retain a sense of calm. Situated a twenty-minute stroll to the culinary and nightlife mecca of Brixton, and ten minutes to the green open spaces of Brockwell Park with its iconic 1930’s Lido and unrivalled sports facilities. A fifteen-minute walk across the park brings you to Herne Hill station and the many pubs, cafes and restaurants of Herne Hill.
The first stop on the Victoria Line at Brixton tube station is a short stroll down the hill and multiple day and night buses run up and down Brixton Hill, whisking you down to the tube within a few minutes and through into central London.
