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 present this fantastic three bedroom apartment with a private terrace boasting stunning views of The Shard and London skyline. Set within a handsome Victorian conversion with resident’s off-street parking, on the sought-after Josephine Avenue. Nestled peacefully within the conservation area, this charming home offers a village-esq, neighbourly feel.
Spanning over 1,000 square feet across the upper floors, this stylish home tastefully combines period features with contemporary finishes, creating a beautiful and ready-to-move-into space. Being split over the upper floors, the apartment benefits from additional privacy due to this elevated position, plus an abundance of natural light that promotes an incredibly airy atmosphere with excellent morning and evening sunlight. The comfortable square footage over various levels are sure to make this elegant flat appeal to a wide range of purchasers.
A true heart of a home, the reception room is a bright and inviting space, set to the front of the apartment with picturesque leafy views. Period charm is retained through high ceilings, original sash windows, and a striking exposed brick fireplace in a unique prism shape, enhanced by accent lighting. The generous proportions allow for a comfortable lounge area, as well as a dedicated dining space, ideal for entertaining. Separated by an elegant glass partition, the kitchen is both stylish and functional, with crisp white shaker-style cabinetry wrapping around three walls, topped with warming wooden worktops. With plentiful storage and integrated appliances, this well-appointed space is perfect for home chefs, offering lovely views through the large window.
All three bedrooms are thoughtfully set apart from one another, providing privacy ideal for sharers or families. The pièce de résistance is the spectacular principal suite, peacefully occupying the top floor of the home. This tranquil retreat enjoys an abundance of natural light, with charming wooden floorboards, fitted wardrobes, and additional eaves storage. Bifold doors open onto the private terrace, where breath-taking rooftop views extend to the London skyline, including The Shard. This principal bedroom suite also benefits from a luxurious en-suite shower room.
Still a spacious double, the second bedroom is nestled towards the rear of the property, beautifully presented in soothing tones, while the third bedroom is a versatile space, currently used as a double but offering the flexibility to re-purpose to suit individual needs. The main bathroom, conveniently located beside the second bedroom, is a delightful sanctuary, complete with a separate shower cubicle and a double-ended bathtub nestled beneath the window to create the perfect setting for a long soak in the bubbles after a stroll around nearby Brockwell Park.
The cherry on the cake is the off-street parking, shared with the friendly neighbours within the building.
The location is fantastic, set within the Josephine conservation area on the sought-after Josephine Avenue. The local amenities on Brixton Hill including shops, restaurants and bars are just a couple of minute's walk away, and the property offers the benefit of being in close proximity to vibrant central Brixton whilst sufficiently distant from its busy high street activities and noise, ideal for anyone who wants to be close to the action while maintaining a sense of calm. The new owner will have the best of both worlds, with everything on offer in the hustle and bustle of central Brixton just a ten-minute stroll away, yet will be able to retire to the quieter, village-like community that has been developed around Brixton Hill. Brockwell Park is just two minutes from the end of the road, leading you into sleepier Herne Hill for a stroll around the Sunday market. In the other direction, the popular establishments of Abbeville Village are an eighteen-minute walk away, with Clapham High Street, Old Town and the Common just a few minutes further.
First stop on the Victoria Line at Brixton tube station is only a ten-minute walk, whisking you into central London and the City within a few minutes, as well as the regular day and night bus options at the end of the avenue.
A truly stunning home in a prime location, this exceptional apartment is not to be missed.
