Property details

Keating Estates are proud to present to market this beautifully bright and spacious one bedroom apartment with a communal garden and off-street parking, set back within an attractive Victorian property. Nestled on the unique Raleigh Gardens, a desirable and leafy residential road tucked away off Brixton Hill, the property benefits from a quiet setting as the entrance is a no-through road which only allows access to these particular properties.

This charming top-floor apartment is a wonderful example of a thoughtfully maintained period home, benefiting from an abundance of natural light and stylish interiors.

The separate reception room is a striking space, boasting generous proportions and tasteful décor. With ample space for both a lounge and a dining area, this inviting room is perfect for relaxing or entertaining, enhanced by charming ceilings framing the space, vibrant design details and fitted shelving. The modern kitchen is neatly tucked away in its own space, featuring sleek white cabinetry, wooden worktops, and trendy blue flooring that adds a pop of character. Fully equipped and boasting excellent storage options, the space is both stylish and practical, bathed in cascading light from a skylight above.

The bedroom is a spacious double, benefiting from bespoke built-in wardrobes down two walls, ensuring plenty of storage. Tasteful yet neutral presentation and soft carpeting adds a cosy touch, creating a serene and restful atmosphere. The contemporary bathroom is finished to a high standard, complete with a bathtub with an overhead rainfall shower, modern vanity, and integrated storage, finished with soothing pastel blue tiling.

Just outside the front door is a communal lawned garden, surrounded by trees and shrubbery, ideal for whiling away the summer months and great for those who would like the opportunity to exercise their green fingers. There is also off-street parking, operated on a first come first served basis, however over time the residents generally tend to establish their own unofficial spots. If all this weren’t enough, payment has already been made to refresh the communal areas of the property.

Raleigh Gardens is highly sought-after for its proximity to all that the area is known for, situated a ten-minute stroll to the heart of Brixton and a similar distance to the green open spaces of Brockwell Park. A pleasant fifteen-minute walk across the park brings you to Herne Hill station and the many pubs, cafes and restaurants of Herne Hill. The popular establishments on Brixton Hill are within touching distance, including F Mondays, Stir Coffee, Pizza Brixton and The White Horse Pub. This beautifully presented, top floor flat is perfect for anyone who wants to be close to the action but would prefer to retain a sense of calm. The first stop on the Victoria Line at Brixton tube station is just a fifteen-minute walk away. There are few properties in the area that have as many positive attributes, from the finish to the quiet, neighbourhood feel and the proximity to all the action the area has to offer.

Chain-free.
