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 handsome and well-presented one double bedroom end of terrace Victorian garden flat nestled on a popular residential street, ideally located within a ten-minute stroll to both Brixton and Clapham centres.
The bright reception room at the front of the property is a good size, with high ceilings, a bay window and a feature fireplace, which all contribute to the light and airy atmosphere throughout this characterful apartment. The dual-aspect open plan reception room feeds into the spacious and modern kitchen with plenty of room to dine and direct access through the wide, un-extended side return and through to the large private garden at the rear. The kitchen is beautifully designed with plenty of worktop space and multiple storage cupboards.
Tucked away quietly at the back of the property, the double bedroom is bright with windows that look out over the private garden at the rear, whilst the bathroom is contemporary. The flat is a blank canvas, tastefully finished and ready for a purchaser to move in and add their own touch over time.
The majority of the total square footage is useable living space with great room dimensions, as opposed to being distributed within larger hallways. There is the added benefit of development opportunities in the future, as the property could be extended, subject to the necessary permissions.
Clapham and Brixton town centres are equal in distance and both within a ten-minute walk. The property will appeal to a wide range of purchasers from first-time buyers to buy-to-let investors and anyone looking for an extremely well-located pied a terre. Potential purchasers will benefit from all the amenities that both areas have to offer, the Northern and Victoria lines within easy reach and the green open spaces of Clapham Common and Brockwell Park. Abbeville Village is also a short stroll, so this property covers the wants and needs for most purchasers.
