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 a bright and versatile two double-bedroom split-level flat for sale within a handsome Victorian terraced property situated on the well-located Solon Road. This residential location is almost equidistant between Clapham and Brixton High Streets, plus the Northern and Victoria lines, with a brilliant choice of amenities in every direction.
This appealing and well-presented home measures over 700 square feet of internal space, set to the upper floors with the best of both worlds, benefitting from an abundance of natural light and privacy.
An expansive reception room spans the width of the house, bathed with natural light from multiple sash windows, creating a pleasant atmosphere. This versatile space enjoys characterful features inclusive of a feature fireplace surrounded by an attractive mantle and high ceilings, an inviting room to be savoured from a relaxing spot on the sofa with generous proportions for a dining area. Downstairs, the separate kitchen is well-equipped with the majority of the white goods having been recently replaced. This bright room provides a pleasant place in which to cook with all you need in terms of worktop and storage space.
A rarity for period conversions, both bedrooms are generously proportioned doubles with each being nestled to the rear of the property tucked away from the already quiet street. Ideal for sharers the bedrooms are positioned away from one another, on slightly differing floors to allow a desirable level of privacy. Although both bedrooms are spacious doubles, the principal is particularly sizeable, a wonderfully tranquil room with a feature fireplace and dual aspect windows providing views over the nearby gardens. The neutral bathroom is fitted with both a bath and overhead shower, ideal for a soak in the bubbles.
Not to be underestimated, copious storage is on offer within the large demised loft, with precedent having been set on the street should the purchaser wish to seek permission to extend into this space, adding an additional bedroom and bathroom, growing into the property over time.
If all this wasn’t enough, the boiler was replaced in 2024 and the parapet walls on the roof rendered and flashings were all renewed the same year. The current vendor also extended the lease to 165 years, also removing ground rent, in 2014.
This quiet and neighbourly street is tucked away in a sought-after pocket with the restaurants, supermarkets and bars of Acre Lane a short walk away. Within a ten-minute stroll is everything that Brixton has to offer, from music venues and the extremely popular Brixton Village to large brand shops and cracking transport links, first stop on the Victoria tube line. Vibrant and diverse Clapham High Street is a similar distance in the other direction, offering great nightlife with the cafes and boutique shops within Abbeville Village, Venn Street and Clapham Old Town all close by. Potential purchasers will benefit from both the Northern Line (Clapham North, Clapham Common and Clapham South tube stations) and the Victoria Line (Brixton tube station). This property has the advantage of two wonderful green open spaces within walking distance; Clapham Common and Brockwell Park with its iconic 1930s Lido.
Chain-free.
