Description
Full Description - Keating Estates are proud to present this bright and spacious three-bedroom purpose-built flat, with a private South-facing terrace, arranged over the second floor and set within a quiet cul-de-sac surrounded by communal gardens. Spanning approximately 772 square feet, the property is cleverly configured to maximise its dual-aspect positioning, allowing natural light to flood the space throughout the day. Its elevated setting and leafy surroundings offer a wonderful sense of privacy and calm, while the generous proportions, airy interiors, and excellent access to green spaces and transport links make this an outstanding opportunity for comfortable, well-connected living.
Forming the heart of the home is a generously sized living room—a wonderfully bright and inviting space thanks to its large windows and access to a private terrace, perfect for morning coffee or evening relaxation. There’s ample space for both lounge and dining furniture, making this room ideal for entertaining or unwinding at the end of the day.
The separate kitchen is smartly designed and highly functional, featuring shaker-style navy cabinetry with gold fittings, integrated appliances, and sleek wooden worktops. The layout is both stylish and practical, offering generous countertop space and ample cupboard storage. From the kitchen, you also have access to the private terrace, and a large window overlooking the communal gardens provides excellent natural light and ventilation. There’s plenty of room to prepare meals, with space for a small breakfast table or additional storage.
The property boasts three well-proportioned bedrooms—a rare and valuable feature. Two of the bedrooms are brilliant-sized doubles of very similar dimensions, each with space for large beds, wardrobes, and additional furnishings. The third bedroom, currently configured as a flexible work-from-home space, is a versatile room that would also serve well as a guest room or child’s bedroom, depending on the occupants’ needs.
The stylish and contemporary family bathroom has been thoughtfully designed with a blend of modern and traditional elements. The walk-in shower features a striking black-framed screen and matte black fittings, complemented by herringbone-patterned white tiles that add a touch of elegance and texture.
Residents enjoy access to a communal garden—a perfect spot for quiet reflection or weekend picnics. Mature trees and lawned areas enhance the sense of community and calm.
Thornton Gardens is a peaceful no-through road, yet moments from a host of amenities and transport options. The flat is within walking distance of three key train stations including: Streatham Hill, Balham, and Clapham South, with frequent bus connections offering swift access to Brixton for Victoria line services. The Northern Line from Balham or Clapham South provides fast and reliable links to the City and West End, while Streatham Hill offers excellent Overground connections to Clapham Junction and beyond.
For outdoor enthusiasts, Tooting Bec Common is just a short stroll away. One of South London’s largest open spaces, it offers wide open fields, tennis courts, a café, woodlands, and the famous lido. Whether you’re a keen runner, dog-walker, or someone who simply enjoys time outdoors, this flat is perfectly placed to take full advantage of it.
The property is also conveniently close to a wide array of shops, restaurants, bars, and cafés. Balham High Road, Clapham South, and Streatham all offer vibrant high streets filled with amenities—from boutique coffee shops to major supermarkets and independent eateries.
