Property details

A handsome example of a four double bedroom Victorian home, this mid-terraced property on Fairmount Road will tick boxes for a wide range of purchasers. Situated on Fairmount Road, an attractive residential road just off Brixton Hill, this popular street benefits from a quiet setting as the road wraps around onto Beechdale Road, which results in no through traffic, only allowing access to these particular houses on these two desirable roads. The property is only a short walk away from some of Brixton’s most popular primary schools, the local amenities of vibrant Brixton Hill, the ever-popular Brockwell Park and the fantastic variety of nightlife and restaurants on offer in central Brixton. With access to the Victoria line at Brixton tube station also within a ten-minute stroll and Herne Hill a pleasant fifteen-minute walk through the park, the location cannot be overstated.

The property is packed full of period features, such as high ceilings, original doors, bay windows and coving. Boasting acres of room, four large bedrooms and a peaceful garden to match, the house is truly an impressive proposition. The ground floor comprises a large double-aspect reception room with doors onto the un-extended side return, a spacious kitchen diner with a charming bay window, and a modern shower room. The tranquil rear garden is the perfect spot in which to relax or partake in some light gardening. On the first floor sit two double bedrooms and a spacious, contemporary bathroom, which could be reconfigured to a fifth bedroom should purchasers require it. The master bedroom is a fantastic size, running the width of the property with multiple windows that allows natural light to flood into the room. Upstairs is a well-designed loft conversion, complete with some convenient built-in storage and skylights, plus a further comfortable double bedroom, sharing a contemporary bathroom.

In short, a beautiful terrace on a sought-after street, close to the action but far enough away to retain a real sense of calm. Early registration is highly recommended.

Brixton area highlights

Brixton is a melting pot of culture, cuisine and creativity. 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.
