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
Keating Estates are delighted to offer to market a characterful, two double bedroom top floor flat, located on an extremely popular road, running parallel to Brockwell Park. This characterful flat is securely arranged over the second floor of a handsome end-of-terrace Victorian house, nestled on a quiet residential street with a direct entrance to Brockwell Park on the road itself and is a ten-minute walk to Brixton tube station.
Beautifully presented, the home offers over 600 square feet of internal space, set to the upper floor for additional privacy and arranged in a layout which maximises the space ensuring all rooms feel airy. The large reception room is flooded with natural light creating a lovely atmosphere in which to unwind, with generous proportions for a dining table, ideal for entertaining. Keeping the dishes neatly tucked away, the separate kitchen is modern and smart, with cabinetry in stylish tones providing ample storage. Subject to the necessary permissions it may be plausible to open the space out, combining with the reception to create a larger open-plan living space, should the purchaser desire.
The two double bedrooms are peacefully nestled to the rear of the property, the larger of the two being particularly spacious and offering built-in storage. The second bedroom, still a fantastic double, could also be re-purposed to suit the needs of the purchaser. The living space and bedrooms are separated by a contemporary family-sized bathroom. The flat has convenient access to a loft, ideal for storing away all those items not used on a regular basis and the flat is decorated neutrally throughout, with original floorboards throughout the majority, making it perfect to move into where the purchaser can stamp their own mark over time.
As far as locations go, it doesn’t get much better, the property benefits from a quiet, cul-de-sac setting and a real sense of community, with the local landscaped garden and vegetable plot just next door. Brailsford Road is a quiet and desriable leafy street located a ten minute walk to Brixton tube station, and has the fantastic benefit of an entrance to Brockwell Park moments away at the top of the road. The beautiful greenery of this award winning park will not disappoint, along with its iconic 1930s Lido, excellent sports facilities, popular café and more. Brailsford Road is an easy ten minute walk to the centre of Brixton, whilst a large supermarket, and various local heroes such as Brockwell Blend, The Hootenanny, Maremma and Naughty Piglets are also right on your doorstep. The amenities in leafy Herne Hill are also a pleasant ten minute stroll through Brockwell Park, and the property will appeal to purchasers considering moving to both of these in-demand areas. Early registration of interest is strongly advised.
