Description
Full Description - Keating Estates are proud to present this charming two double bedroom split-level Victorian conversion apartment with a private South-east facing garden, set within an elegant period property on Helix Road, a highly sought-after residential street, a fifteen-minute walk from the amenities and transport links of central Brixton.
Split across the ground and first floors of a handsome Victorian house on a quiet, residential street in Brixton, this beautifully presented home offers an appealing balance of period character, thoughtful updates, and versatile living space.
The reception room forms the heart of the home and is positioned at the front of the property, where bay sash windows with classic shutters allow natural light to flood the space throughout the day. The proportions are generous, comfortably accommodating a relaxing seating area while also offering the perfect nook for a dining table. A decorative fireplace provides a striking focal point, with bespoke cabinetry and shelving set neatly within the alcoves, ideal for displaying books, artwork, and personal touches, adding warmth and character to the room.
A small set of stairs leads down into the kitchen, creating a subtle yet effective transition from the main living area. The kitchen is fitted with crisp white cabinetry and sleek worktops, complemented by pale blue subway tiled splashbacks and tiled flooring for a clean, contemporary finish. Integrated white goods ensure a streamlined look, while the space is generous enough to accommodate a dining table, should you wish. French doors open onto the side return of the garden, drawing in light and creating an easy flow between indoor and outdoor living.
The principal bedroom is located at the rear of the ground floor and is an impressive and tranquil space. Extended to create a dedicated work-from-home nook, this area could also be used as a dressing area, offering flexibility to suit individual needs. A skylight and French doors allow natural light to pour in, enhancing the calm, neutral décor. Built-in wardrobes provide excellent storage, while a decorative fireplace mount adds character. The French doors lead directly out to the private South-east facing garden, reinforcing the sense of retreat.
The garden is a real highlight of the property. Designed to be low maintenance, it is predominantly paved and framed by established planting beds that soften the space and provide year-round interest. Ideal for entertaining, the garden also features a built-in barbecue, an outside tap, and sink. To the rear sits a fantastic home office outbuilding with power and heating, offering an excellent solution for remote working, creative use, or additional storage.
Also on the ground floor is a useful downstairs toilet, which serves both the principal bedroom and visiting guests. This space has been cleverly designed to double as a utility room and houses the boiler, ensuring practicality without compromising on style or flow.
Upstairs, the second double bedroom offers excellent separation from the main living areas, creating a peaceful and private space. Positioned at the rear, it enjoys leafy views through two sash windows and benefits from soft carpet underfoot, adding comfort and warmth. Adjacent is the family bathroom, finished in a neutral palette and fitted with a shower over the bath, ideal for both quick morning routines and relaxing evening soaks. A sash window provides natural light and ventilation. The landing area is notably spacious, allowing room for an additional storage unit.
Further benefits include a cellar, offering valuable additional storage, perfect for bikes, tools, or items used less frequently. The property also enjoys a wonderful sense of community, with friendly owner-occupied neighbours upstairs and long-term neighbours on either side.
The property is located in a quiet and leafy part of vibrant Brixton, on tree-lined Helix Road. Situated a fifteen-minute stroll from all that central Brixton has to offer, purchasers also have 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 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 services on Brixton Hill. The location is ideal, with the green, open spaces of Brockwell Park within a seven-minute walk. A pleasant fifteen-minute walk across the park brings you to Herne Hill station, with access to the Thameslink into the City and the many pubs, cafés, restaurants, and Sunday market of leafy Herne Hill. The village feel continues with easy access to Dulwich Village, East Dulwich, and trendy Peckham, catering to the wants and needs of most potential purchasers. In the other direction, the popular establishments of Acre Lane are a fifteen-minute walk, leading on into vibrant Clapham.
