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

This attractive home has the best of both worlds, designed to imitate the period terrace houses on either side the property boasts characterful kerb appeal yet has all the advantages which modern builds bring, including good insulation and high energy efficiency.
Nestled behind two contemporary sash windows, framed by plantation shutters, the semi-open plan reception is an elegant and inviting room, featuring comfortable proportions in which to lounge and dine. Modern lighting and engineered wood flooring add to the pleasant ambience, leading into the adjacent kitchen. Fully integrated, the kitchen sweeps around on three walls to create a practical room with generous storage and worktop space. Finished with well-considered touches such as floor level and worktop lighting and a glossy splashback reflecting the sash window views, this is sure to be an enjoyable place to cook.

Ideal for sharers, the bedrooms are separated from one another, offering privacy for both.
