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 fantastic opportunity to stamp your own mark on a spacious two double bedroom flat, occupying the top floor of an attractive double-fronted Victorian terraced house. The location of this property will appeal to a wide range of purchasers as it offers the best of both worlds. Set just on the edge of the Josephine conservation area, minutes from Brockwell Park and with easy access to all that Brixton has to offer in terms of restaurants, nightlife and transport links. 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.
With over 620 square feet of well distributed living space, the property offers decent proportions throughout without wasting square footage on unnecessary hallway space. The flat has the potential to feel even more spacious by creating an open-plan living space through combining the reception and kitchen, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
As the flat currently stands, there is a bright and airy reception room at the front of the building, overlooking the handsome Victorian terraced street, with plenty of room to relax and unwind or entertain guests. A well-appointed kitchen occupies the room adjacent, overlooking the rear gardens and with enough space to dine. Integrated appliances and plenty of storage options make the most of the space on offer. Two genuine double bedrooms occupy the other side of the flat, the first mirroring the size of the reception and the second peacefully residing at the back of the property. The flat is completed by a three-piece contemporary bathroom.
In short, a wonderful apartment with great proportions, ready for a buyer who does not wish to pay a higher premium for someone else’s taste, preferring to make a property truly their own. On a desirable street – close to the action but far enough away to retain a real sense of calm.
Chain-Free.
