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 example of a two double bedroom garden flat, arranged over the ground floor of an attractive Victorian terraced house. Located on Leander Road, the property will appeal to a wide range of purchasers due to its proximity to the heart of Brixton, Herne Hill and Brockwell Park.
Almost 880 square feet of internal living space has been delightfully arranged to provide two ample double bedrooms, one particularly spacious and flooded with light through the large bay window at the front of the property. The second bedroom is peacefully positioned towards the rear of the flat, with access onto one of the two private outside spaces. French doors allow fresh air to breeze through the room, creating a lovely atmosphere throughout. Adjacent, a family sized bathroom is conveniently located.
The reception room is appealing, offering great dimensions and a seamless flow from the living space out to the low-maintenance, private garden. The kitchen is well-equipped with great storage options and surface space, and further outside access. The property is completed by a handy basement, ideal for storing away clutter.
The property is situated in the heart of the ever-popular Josephine Avenue Conservation area, a quiet and leafy network of similarly attractive, Victorian terraced roads. The centre of Brixton, South London's new culinary mecca, is a thirteen-minute walk, with all it has to offer in terms of restaurants, nightlife and transport links, whilst two of Brixton’s most sought-after primary schools are also within a short stroll. 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.
