Property details

A handsome example of a two double bedroom, Victorian purpose-built garden flat with private entrance, perfectly located on this popular residential road between Clapham and Brixton.

The spacious bedroom at the front of the property is flooded with natural light thanks to large double sash windows. Built-in wardrobes help to maximise the available storage space in this comfortable double room and a touch of charming character will endear any buyer through classic Victorian embellished ceilings and wood flooring. Tucked away at the rear and overlooking the un-extended side return through to the garden, the second double room has similar characteristics to the former, with built-in storage, bespoke shelving, and a characterful feature fireplace that all complement this tranquil, quiet space.

A modern and tastefully decorated bathroom separates the bedrooms from the open-plan reception at the back of the property. Slate tiles are offset by a gorgeous roll-top bath, providing a satisfactory balance between classic charm and a modern, sleek style.

As you reach the back of the property, you are met by a large open kitchen with built-in appliances and plenty of storage options. There is ample space to dine, without having to be separated from the living area which is nestled towards the bi-folding doors, opening out onto a low-maintenance, pretty garden. An ideal space to unwind or socialise.

This flat is a fantastic all-rounder for anyone seeking their own private haven away from the buzz of Brixton, but close enough to both Brixton and Clapham to reap all the benefits this area has to offer.

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. 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.

Brixton area highlights

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.
