Full Description - Keating Estates are proud to present to market this immaculate and impressive five double bedroom, three bathroom Victorian family home. Nestled peacefully on an attractive residential road within the desirable Ruskin community, one of the area's most sought-after pockets offering a village-esq, neighbourly feel. Spanning over 2,500 square feet of internal space plus the rarity of a 90 foot South-facing garden this extensive property will appeal to many purchasers, early registration of interest is advised.

Lovingly maintained by the current owners this beautiful home has been fully extended and strikes the ideal balance of period features combined with modern fixtures and high quality finishes throughout to create an appealing ambience from the moment you enter. The ground floor comprises a dual-aspect reception, a convenient WC and a stunning rear open-plan dine-in kitchen. The double reception room displays charming Victorian character with high, corniced ceilings and original floorboards, a grand and impressive space perfect for entertaining or relaxing. The large bay window adds further character whilst flooding the room with natural light, adding to the appeal are two attractive feature fireplaces, one being a working log burner ideal for unwinding in front of a cosy fire. French doors lead off the rear reception into a pretty terrace, potted with plants and views through the kitchen into the garden beyond.

Contemporary and stylish the dine-in kitchen is sleek, a large and airy room designed with immaculate attention to detail, providing the ideal family hub. A fully integrated kitchen is complete with high-end appliances, abundant storage options and an appealing breakfast island. There are comfortable dimensions for a large dining table and multiple skylights running the length of the room add to the appealing atmosphere. Floor to ceiling glass doors span the width of the room, bi-folding out to allow a seamless flow into to the rear private garden.

The garden is vast, a heavenly South-facing suntrap measuring over 90 feet in length, with a wealth of mature and unique flora and fauna, complete with vegetable patches and a sizeable BBQ area. Nestled to the farthest perimeter is a useful storage room adjacent to a charming garden room, perfect for hosting dinner whilst relishing nature with views through large pane glass ceilings and walls.

Arranged over the first floor are three well-proportioned double bedrooms. One being particularly impressive, spanning the entire width of the property and boasting an attractive bay window. The further two bedrooms are nestled towards the rear with garden views, one of which is currently being utilised as a home office. A tastefully decorated family-sized bathroom separates the rear bedrooms.

The second floor comprises a grand suite complete with a luxurious en-suite bathroom, equipped with a separate bathtub and walk-in rain shower, plus a contemporary double sink. The elevated position ensures a bright and private room whilst offering fantastic views across the rooftops towards Central London. Soak in the lights of the cityscape including many of the major landmarks from the comfort of your own private suite.

Set to the third floor is a further suite, a spacious bedroom with a modern en-suite shower room. Peacefully atop the house the bedroom is bathed in natural light from multiple Velux windows, two of which open out to create balconies from which further panoramic views of the city can be enjoyed.

This stunning property has been tastefully finished top-to-toe in calming neutral tones with high quality fixtures by the current owners. Having multiple rooms and well over 2,500 square feet means the purchaser will not need to compromise and spaces can be re-purposed to suit requirements. The house also has the added benefit of plenty of storage in the eaves and the cellar. And let's not forget about that impressive garden!

The house is ideally located within the desirable Ruskin community, close to Herne Hill and minutes from the increasingly popular Loughborough Junction and a stone's throw from Ruskin Park. The Ruskin community is a close-knit village like pocket of residential streets with a welcoming and homely feel where there is a WhatsApp group and regular social activities including weekly tennis and yoga lessons. All of the children know each other from the local schools and there is a supportive network of Ruskin Mums. With multiple schools, Ruskin and Brockwell Parks, Herne Hill's pubs and restaurants plus Brixton and Dulwich all on your doorstep, there is something to cater for all potential purchasers.

There are excellent transport links to the city within walking distance with access to Thameslink services (Loughborough Junction and Herne Hill), the East London Line (Denmark Hill) and the Underground (start of the Victoria Line at Brixton). An impressive home in a lovely area with local shops and the Whirled Cinema on the doorstep, close to Herne Hill and Brixton town centres but far enough away to retain a sleepy, neighbourhood feel.
