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 delightful one bedroom flat, arranged securely over the top floor of an end-of-terrace Victorian townhouse, boasting a handsome façade and enviable location on one of Brixton’s most sought-after residential streets, nestled within the Josephine conservation area.
This charming property is bright with an appealing airy atmosphere and a mix of endearing characterful elements and contemporary finishes. The stunning open plan reception offers a well-equipped integrated kitchen and is flooded with natural light through multiple Velux windows. The open-plan kitchen follows on to a cosy reception area, complete with the attractive addition of a Juliet balcony that has lovely views across the neighbouring gardens at the rear. There is plenty of room for a large dining table, an ideal area to entertain guests when the new purchaser is not relaxing and unwinding in this tranquil, secure space.
The bedroom is peacefully tucked to the rear of the building and offers generous dimensions for any additional storage or a work-from-home space if required. The bedroom and the Juliet balcony in the reception both benefit from a West-facing position, making them perfect spots to watch the sun melt away into the distance in the evenings. This charming flat is completed by a modern family-sized bathroom and measures up at 540 square feet, making it a very comfortable one bedroom property.
The location is highly desirable, within a couple of minutes walk from Brockwell Park - claimed by some as the finest in London. It boasts tennis courts, a walled garden, a gorgeous lido and extraordinary views over the capital. The pubs, bars and restaurants of Brixton Hill and Effra Road are a two-minute walk. While the property benefits from all that Brixton offers, from the open-air eateries of Brixton Village to the music venues and nightlife the area is famous for. Brixton tube and overground station is a ten-minute stroll down Brixton Hill – Brixton is the first stop on the Victoria Line and your seat is guaranteed. While all that Herne Hill has to offer, including its ten-minute trains into the city, are just a tranquil thirteen-minute walk through beautiful Brockwell Park.
The road itself is very quiet, with a car being quite an unusual sight, you can literally hear a pin drop. There’s also a great sense of community alongside the adjoining roads with pedestrianised street parties and art fairs on the annual calendar.
