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.

Property details
A stunning example of a five double bedroom Victorian terraced house, located on one of Brixton’s sought-after residential streets, Fairmount Road. This exceptional family home has been finished to an impeccable standard, with great sensitivity to the period character of the property. With nearly 2000 square feet of living space on offer, five spacious bedrooms, a high-quality finish and a beautiful garden to match, this is a real box ticker.
The ground floor comprises a wide hallway complete with beautiful Victorian tiling and access to a spacious cellar, a dual-aspect reception room complete with a bright bay window, a feature fireplace, high ceilings and ample space in which to relax or entertain guests. Double doors boast views over the un-extended side return. To the rear of the property, an eat-in kitchen provides the perfect family hub. Sleek gloss units and stylish tiling create an elegant yet practical space in which to cook and dine, with fully integrated appliances and plenty of worktop and storage space. Subject to the necessary permissions, there is the opportunity to increase the footprint by extending into the side-return. Doors open onto the quiet and serene private garden, perfect for enjoying garden parties or unwinding with a book during the spring and summer months.
On the first floor are three of the five bedrooms, all of which are extremely comfortable doubles. The master bedroom runs the entire width of the front of the house with convenient built-in storage. There is a luxurious family bathroom which serves the bedrooms on this floor, and stairs lead up to another double bedroom, an additional bathroom, and the loft conversion, which has been brilliantly executed to provide a fantastic fifth double bedroom, boasting an en-suite shower room, some great storage and a lovely Juliet balcony that offers pleasant views over the leafy gardens to the rear.
Situated on Fairmount Road, an attractive, quiet 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 two 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 on offer in central Brixton. With access to the Victoria line at Brixton tube station also within a ten-minute stroll, the location cannot be overstated. This is a stunning home that has a real mix of characterful features and contemporary design and, together with the unparalleled location, will appeal to a vast range of purchasers.
