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 beautiful example of a three double bedroom period house, this property on Elm Park has an attractive façade and is nestled on a desirable road set quietly off Brixton Hill, perfectly situated for anyone wanting to be close to the action yet far enough away to retain a sense of calm. Brixton town centre and Brixton Village are a short stroll down Brixton Hill or a three-minute bus ride. Brockwell Park is a seven-minute walk, which many local residents champion as one of London's best parks, across which is Herne Hill station within a fifteen-minute walk. Elm Park conveniently has a range of amenities further down the road with a recently renovated neighbourhood pub serving great food with a diverse range of beers. At the end of the road is vibrant Brixton Hill and its brilliant array of cafes, pubs and restaurants, such as F Mondays, Pizza Brixton, and the White Horse pub, to name a few.
The property has over 1200 square feet of internal living space and comprises a double reception and dining room with parquet flooring, high ceilings, a feature fireplace and a large sash window with wooden shutters. The dining room flows seamlessly through to a stunning extended contemporary kitchen diner which is flooded with natural light through three large skylights and concertina doors which allow an easy transition from inside to the private secluded garden at the rear. A convenient WC completes the ground floor. Stairs lead to three comfortable double bedrooms with feature fireplaces and a spacious modern family bathroom with walk-in shower and separate roll-top bath.
All in all, a tastefully decorated home in a friendly street, which is crying out for someone to move in hassle-free and stamp their own mark over time. The new purchasers will benefit from all that both Brixton and Herne Hill have to offer. Early registration is recommended. Freehold.
