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 exceptional example of a two bedroom, two bathroom garden flat, occupying the entire ground floor of this handsome Victorian terraced house. Stansfield Road benefits from an unrivalled central location, perfectly sandwiched between the amenities in Brixton, Clapham and Stockwell. This stylish property will appeal to purchasers who are contemplating moving to all three of these sought-after locations – with a varied array of nightlife, restaurants, shops and transport links on the doorstep, purchasers will be spoiled for choice.
The two bedrooms are both genuine doubles – a rare find within similar Victorian conversions. The master bedroom sits at the front of the property, benefitting from a bright bay window, complete with original shutters, whilst high ceilings promote a wonderfully airy atmosphere. The second bedroom is a similarly sized room with double doors that open up onto a private courtyard, and the bedrooms are separated by a luxurious family bathroom, complete with trendy geometric tiling and a high standard of fittings. Down the hallway, there is a further wet room, which, in keeping with the rest of the property, is recently fitted. The hallway also provides access to a good-sized cellar – ideal for hiding away all the clutter purchasers will accumulate over time - plus a convenient utility cupboard, providing some additional storage.
Tucked away to the rear of the flat, the open-plan reception room is a real show-stopper. This incredible living area has been fully extended, whilst the pitched ceiling really amplifies the sense of space. The sleek kitchen is contemporary with contrasting units and worktops, providing plenty of storage and surface space, integrated appliances and a stylish central island. The room enjoys an abundance of natural light thanks to multiple skylights and full-width, bi-fold doors. These allow a seamless transition into the lovely private patio, a peaceful suntrap that feels worlds away from the hustle and bustle of city life, with smart Cornish granite paving and Gabion cage bench to the rear. With over 850 square feet of internal living space, this is an elegant home with an ideal layout for modern tastes, and could be moved into stress-free, benefiting from the hard work that has been completed to renovate and extend. Further benefits include a Nest smart thermostat, and cosy underfloor heating within the open-plan reception room.
With impressive living space, two well-proportioned double bedrooms, two bathrooms and a delightful garden to boot, it is hard to remind yourself that you are indeed in the heart of Brixton, located on this sought-after residential street, a few doors down from the birthplace of the legendary David Bowie. The flat is situated a short stroll from The Ritzy and the excellent array of shops and restaurants in Brixton Village. The location will be perfect for anyone who wants to be close to the action, yet retain a sense of calm: this quiet street feels worlds away from the hustle and bustle of central Brixton. As far as locations go, it doesn’t get much better. Brixton station is just a five-minute walk, first stop on the Victoria Line, arguably the best line on the London Underground for fast links into central London and beyond. The restaurants, nightlife and shopping that have made Brixton so popular are all on the doorstep, making this property an ideal purchase for anyone looking to be as close as possible to the amenities on offer. Clapham High Street and Stockwell are both within a ten-minute stroll with access to the Northern Line and the Overground, meaning there really is something for everyone.
