Property details

This secure top floor Victorian one double bedroom split-level flat on Leander Road will appeal to a wide range of purchasers. The property is situated in the heart of the ever-popular Josephine Avenue Conservation area, a quiet and leafy network of similarly attractive, Victorian terraced roads. The centre of Brixton, South London's new culinary mecca, is a thirteen-minute walk, with all it has to offer in terms of restaurants, nightlife and transport links, first stop on the Victoria tube line. Arguably London’s finest open space, Brockwell Park, with its iconic 1930s Lido, is on the doorstep. Herne Hill is a pleasant fifteen-minute walk through the park, with its village charm and eclectic array of shops and pubs. With Brixton Village, Brockwell Park, and Herne Hill’s pubs and restaurants all within easy walking distance, there is something to cater for all purchasers.

This bright property has an entrance on the first floor with stairs that lead to the second-floor landing and comprises an open plan ‘L-shaped’ reception room with a contemporary kitchen and multiple skylights, a modern bathroom and a double bedroom tucked away quietly at the back of the building with vaulted ceilings.

With over 500 square feet of internal living space, the apartment offers comfortable dimensions throughout and the split-level aspect adds to the airy atmosphere within the property. In short, a wonderful apartment with great proportions, on a desirable street – close to the action but far enough away to retain a real sense of calm.
