Full Description

Keating Estates are delighted to present to market this exceptional five bedroom, three bathroom Victorian house, extending to over 2,000 square feet, with a landscaped private garden and a fantastically rare cinema. Enviably positioned on Hargwyne Street, with ease of access to Clapham and Brixton High Streets.

From the outset, this is a home that combines handsome Victorian proportions with an impressive sense of space and versatility. The double reception room is a particularly inviting introduction, with a wide bay window drawing in natural light, high corniced ceilings, original-style detailing and a feature fireplace creating a wonderfully elegant setting for both relaxed evenings and more formal entertaining. The generous proportions allow for distinct seating and dining areas, while steps lead naturally through towards the rear of the house.

The kitchen diner is a superb social heart to the home, created as part of the substantial side return extension and offering an impressive amount of space for everyday family life and entertaining. A large central island provides an excellent focal point, surrounded by extensive contemporary cabinetry, integrated appliances, twin ovens, American-style refrigeration and a built-in wine cooler. A striking bank of glazing and large rooflight flood the room with natural light, while wide glazed doors open directly onto the garden, creating a wonderful connection between the kitchen and outside space.

The landscaped garden is a lovely extension of the living accommodation, thoughtfully arranged with a paved terrace, areas of artificial lawn and a particularly attractive row of mature pleached trees providing greenery, privacy and a sense of enclosure. The garden has been designed with entertaining in mind, offering ample space for a large dining table, alongside quieter areas to sit and enjoy the leafy surroundings. The combination of paving, planting and established trees gives the garden a polished yet relaxed feel, making it equally well suited to summer gatherings or family life.

A WC completes the ground floor, while downstairs reveals one of the property's most distinctive features: A dedicated cinema room. This wonderfully versatile space provides a genuine home-entertainment setting, creating an ideal space for film nights, watching sport or simply retreating from the main living areas. A separate utility room adds valuable practical space keeping the laundry quietly tucked away, and also houses an electric water softener and water pump.

The upper floors provide five bedrooms and three bathrooms, with the principal suite occupying the full width of the first floor. This is a substantial and beautifully proportioned bedroom, complete with a wide bay window and the luxury of a walk-in wardrobe area which leads to an impressive en-suite. The en-suite features a separate bathtub positioned beneath the window, a walk-in rain shower and double vanity with waterfall taps, complemented by additional mirrored storage.

A further double bedroom sits to the rear of this floor, enjoying leafy views, with a modern shower room adjacent. The second floor provides three further bedrooms, two of which are positioned to the rear and benefit from the garden outlook, alongside a further bathroom with bathtub and overhead shower. The fifth bedroom occupies the loft room, where two Velux windows fill the space with light, complemented by fitted wardrobes and useful eaves storage. The flexibility of this upper floor allows the accommodation to adapt easily around changing needs, with the bedrooms having previously been used as a gym and home office.

Altogether, this is a wonderfully sociable and versatile Victorian family home, where generous period proportions, an impressive contemporary kitchen, landscaped garden and genuinely unique cinema combine to create a property with considerable lifestyle appeal.
