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 delightfully arranged, split level, two double bedroom garden flat, set within a handsome Victorian end-of-terrace on ever-popular Ballater Road.
Offering over 750 square feet of internal living space, an attractive, low-maintenance and sunny private garden plus a fantastic location between Brixton and Clapham, this flat ticks all the boxes.
The internal space is split over two floors which adds to an airy and spacious feel throughout. At the front of the property is the charming reception room, complete with new wooden shutters, a feature fireplace and a pretty bay window that floods the room with light. With ample room in which to relax, this room will be used on a regular basis. Adjacent, the main bedroom is quietly tucked away and benefits from some fantastic built-in wardrobes. To the rear of the property is the contemporary eat-in kitchen, with plenty of storage and space for a dining table. Double glazed French doors allow access onto the peaceful private garden, a low-maintenance space ideal for relaxing with a drink throughout the warmer months of the year. Upstairs on the first floor is the second bedroom – ideal for use as a guest room, study or nursery. A well-appointed bathroom completes the rooms within this lovely flat. The property benefits from an end-of-terrace position, meaning there is side-access into the garden, ideal for bikes, muddy dogs and gardening. There is also access to a cellar as well as a garden shed, adding generous storage options.
Within a ten-minute stroll down the road, the vibrant and diverse Clapham High Street offers cracking nightlife and a plethora of eateries. In the other direction is everything that Brixton has to offer, from music venues and the extremely popular Brixton Village, to large brand-shops and convenient transport links. Potential purchasers will benefit from the Northern Line (Clapham North and Clapham Common tube stations), the Victoria Line (Brixton tube station) and the Overground at Clapham High Street Station. The bars and restaurants of up-and-coming Acre Lane are also on the doorstep.
