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 proud to present to market an enticing two double bedroom flat with a private garden, within an end of terrace Victorian house in one of the most popular residential pockets between Brixton and Clapham. Kingswood Road is a neighbourly street, with an annual street party, positioned close to the action of both Brixton and Clapham, yet far enough away to retain a sense of calm - enhanced by the recent Low Traffic Neighbourhood - with a community-run pub and shops at the top of the road.
An attractive reception room is nestled in the heart of the property offering ample proportions in which to unwind and dine, with cosy carpets adding an inviting warmth, this tranquil room is sure to be used on a regular basis whether hosting or enjoying an evening in. An archway leads through to a hallway with a door to the garden, and on into the separate kitchen to the rear. Enjoy cooking up a tasty treat in this neutral kitchen which a wraps around in an ergonomic L shape, to take in the views of the garden.
A delightful spot the garden is currently shrouded by bamboo, the private wrap-around garden is primarily laid to paving providing ease of maintenance and benefits from additional light due to the position on the end of the terrace. Enjoy al-fresco dining and hosting in the warmer months of the year, or roll up your sleeves and convert the garden to lawn, vegetable patches and planted boarders if preferred. Precedent has also been set on the road should the new purchaser wish to seek the necessary permissions to extend into the side return.
Set to the front of the property, the principal bedroom is set behind a large bay window and boasts a unique fireplace. Still a generous double, the second bedroom sits adjacent, and both bedrooms offer the sizeable proportions to accommodate a desk in addition to the traditional bedroom furnishings. Neutrally presented, the bathroom is equipped with both a bathtub and a separate shower. Not to be underestimated, there is also a cellar ideal for storing away those lesser used yet essential belongings.
Overall, an appealing flat with a garden and generous square footage, ready to move into straight away with the potential to add your own stamp over time, on a sought-after street, close to the action but far enough away to retain a real sense of calm.
Kingswood Road is a popular street forming part of the Low Traffic Neighbourhood and prides itself on its real sense of community, with residents enjoying annual street parties and a welcoming, neighbourly atmosphere, with Richard Atkins School at the top of the road. On the doorstep there are two large-brand supermarkets, off-licences and a gym. The property is a twenty-minute walk or swift bus ride to both Brixton and Clapham and all that these two in-demand areas have to offer. Situated a similar distance from both locations, potential purchasers will take advantage of some of the best transport links for a speedy route into central London, with the options of first stop on the Victoria Line, the Northern Line, the Overground, trains and multiples buses that run up and down both Kings Avenue and Brixton Hill. Potential purchasers will benefit from fantastic local amenities, a few examples include the green open spaces of Brockwell Park with its 1930s Lido and Clapham Common, and all that Brixton Village, POP Brixton, Clapham High Street and Clapham Old Town have to offer in terms of food and festivities. Abbeville Village is a short stroll through the quiet residential streets, just the other side of Kings Avenue, and the Venn Street Market by Clapham Common tube is the perfect place to whittle down a few hours on a Saturday afternoon.
