An explosion of inventive, new restaurants, pop-ups, fashion stores and art galleries sit alongside the many great pubs, music venues and nightclubs that have been around for years. Transport links are excellent, with London Underground (Victoria Line) trains reaching central London in 12 minutes. If you’re craving green space, Brockwell Park and its famed Art Deco lido are close by. Brixton brings together all the best things about London and is one of the most vibrant and diverse places to live south of the river.

Property details
A rare example of a four bedroom Edwardian house that has been lovingly extended and cared for by its current owners, to an exceptional standard. This property, nestled on sleepy Blenheim Gardens, boasts 200 square metres of living space, making it a cut above the other period houses on offer within the area in terms of space and finish. Blenheim Gardens is a quiet and peaceful residential street, located just off vibrant and trendy Brixton Hill, a ten-minute walk to the centre of Brixton and all that the area has to offer. The 200-year-old, Grade II listed, iconic tourist attraction, Brixton Windmill is also situated further down the road on Blenheim Gardens. The ground floor comprises a bright, attractive reception room at the front of the property, a downstairs WC, and a large, open plan kitchen/reception room: this fantastic space has been completely opened up and extended to its full potential, to create the perfect family hub for dining, relaxing, and entertaining. Double skylights and glass concertina doors allow natural sunlight to flood into the entire room whilst the beautifully finished kitchen provides all you need in terms of appliances and storage. The living space flows seamlessly onto the lovely garden. This outdoor area is perfect for the warmer months and split with a paved and turfed section. Upstairs on the first floor, sit three of the four double bedrooms: the master bedroom runs the width of the house and benefits from a luxurious ensuite bathroom, whilst the further two bedrooms on this floor share a spacious and inviting family bathroom. Up a further flight of stairs is the well-configured loft conversion, providing a further generous double bedroom complete with its own ensuite, plus a superb Juliet balcony, offering views over the handsome neighbouring gardens and beyond. The property is around a 10-minute walk from what many local people claim as the best park in London, Brockwell Park. The cafés, restaurants and local pubs of Brixton Hill are on your doorstep, whilst two of Brixton’s most sought-after primary schools are also within a stone’s throw. The property benefits from all that Brixton offers, from the celebrated cuisine in Brixton Village to the music venues and nightlife the area is famous for and the first stop on the Victoria Line at Brixton tube station, a ten minute walk away. There are few properties in the area that have as many positive attributes, from the style, secluded road, size, outside space, and the proximity to all the action the area has to offer – this house will tick a lot of boxes for a wide range of purchasers. Early registration is recommended.
