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 attractive blank canvas, three double bedroom flat, arranged over the top floors of a charming Victorian terraced house on the centrally located Solon Road. The house itself boasts an attractive façade and benefits from just shy of 800 square feet of internal space.
The first floor of the flat comprises a contemporary kitchen that provides everything you would need in terms of storage options and surface space. The room tucked away behind the kitchen is currently occupied as one of the three bedrooms however it would be easy to swap this over with the larger reception upstairs if so desired, combining the living areas and providing a handsome principal bedroom on the upper floor.
On the top floors of the property, two very well proportioned double bedrooms, one adjacent to the reception and the other next to a comfortable family bathroom. Both bedrooms offer built-in storage and pleasant views over the neighbouring gardens. The bathroom is ideally located and provides a level of privacy between the rooms, which will appeal to anyone looking for a buy-to-let or sharers. This charming flat is completed by a particularly handsome space at the front of the building, spanning the entire width of the house with multiple sash windows and a feature fireplace. Currently a fantastic reception room, the flat boasts plenty of space meaning purchasers can alter the layout or repurpose rooms to suit their needs. Furthermore there is access to a large boarded loft space, ideal for storing away all the clutter accumulated over time.
