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
An elegant example of a four double bedroom Victorian terraced house, perfectly located in this popular residential road between Clapham and Brixton. This stylish house has been finished to a high standard, resulting in a stunning family home with a tasteful blend of contemporary design and charming period features, whilst also keeping energy efficiency in mind – the house has the fantastic benefit of multiple solar panels, solar-heated water and Tesla battery storage. With over 1800 square feet of living space on offer, four double bedrooms, and a secluded garden to match, it is hard to remind yourself that you are, indeed, around a fifteen-minute walk away from both the Northern and Victoria lines, with easy access into Central London and beyond.
To the front of the property is a wonderfully bright and airy, dual-aspect reception room, complete with a charming bay window, feature fireplace and exposed wooden floorboards. High ceilings really amplify the sense of space, which has been completely opened up to create a stunning area in which to relax, dine and entertain guests, whilst also providing a convenient home office area. The space flows seamlessly from the reception room and into a sleek, grey gloss, eat-in kitchen – which has been fully extended to make use of all available space. This has created the ideal hub of the home, boasting underfloor heating and providing all you may need in terms of storage, worktop space and appliances, as well as plenty of room for a large dining area. Double glass doors allow light to flood the space, leading onto the large rear garden. This lovely, well-maintained garden provides the ideal spot in which to unwind with a book or host BBQs throughout the warmer months, and feels worlds away from the hustle and bustle of city life.
On the first floor sit three bedrooms and a modern bathroom. The master bedroom is a fantastic size, running the width of the property with a large bay window that helps to create an airy feel. To the rear are two further double bedrooms, each benefitting from pleasant views of the garden. There is a stylish family bathroom which serves the bedrooms on this floor, complete with a separate walk-in shower. Stairs lead up to the fourth double bedroom and a further bathroom, quietly tucked away and ideal for use as a guest room. Last but not least there is a substantial loft which could be converted, subject to the necessary permissions, to increase the overall square footage of this already spacious home.
Kingswood Road is a popular street that prides itself on its real sense of community, with residents enjoying annual street parties and a welcoming, neighbourly atmosphere. The property is a fifteen to seventeen-minute walk to both Brixton and Clapham Common and all that these two 'in-demand' areas have to offer. Situated a similar distance from both locations, potential purchasers will take advantage of some of the best transport links for a speedy route into central London, with the options of first stop on the Victoria Line, the Northern Line, the Overground, trains and multiples buses that run up and down both Kings Avenue and Brixton Hill. Door to door, Victoria is accessible in twenty-six minutes, Oxford Circus in twenty-nine minutes, Southbank in thirty minutes and London Bridge in thirty-two minutes. Potential purchasers will benefit from fantastic local amenities, a few examples include the green open spaces of Brockwell Park and Clapham Common, and all that Brixton Village, POP Brixton, Clapham High Street and Clapham Old Town have to offer in terms of food and festivities. Abbeville Village is a short stroll through the quiet residential streets, just the other side of Kings Avenue, and the Venn Street Market by Clapham Common tube is the perfect place to whittle down a few hours on a Saturday afternoon.
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. Freehold.
