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 attractive two double bedroom Victorian maisonette with a private South-West facing garden and its own front door 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.
This apartment has been updated by the current vendors during their time of ownership including, double glazed sash windows, upgraded front and rear doors, new flooring throughout and a combi-boiler fitted, together improving the energy efficiency of this beautifully presented property, which feels like a home from the moment you walk through the private front door.
An inviting reception room is nestled toward the rear of the property offering ample proportions in which to unwind, complete with two large sash windows, amplifying the sense of space and light, this tranquil room is sure to be used on a regular basis. A glass panelled door leads to the contemporary kitchen, with generous storage and a dishwasher integrated within white gloss cabinetry, finished with wooden worktops wrapping around in an ergonomic layout, complimented by the warming tones of the flooring and paintwork creating a relaxing place to cook, overlooking the pretty garden. Subject to the necessary permissions, the positioning of the reception and kitchen adjacent to one another provides the opportunity to combine into one open plan space should the new purchaser prefer.
A delightful South-West facing secluded and sunny spot, the private wrap-around garden is primarily laid to deck with plantation borders providing easily maintained greenery. Enjoy al-fresco dining at the patio table or unwinding on the seating area with a good book.
Both bedrooms are spacious doubles of similar proportions, a rarity for period properties and a huge benefit for those seeking the potential to rent out a room. The principal bedroom is packed with character, boasting high, corniced ceilings, sash windows decorated with plantation shutters, and an attractive period fireplace framed with original brick. If all this weren’t enough there is also plentiful storage within large fitted wardrobes. Luxurious and spacious, the bathroom is equipped with both a bathtub and overhead shower, plus ample storage and finished with an attractive traditional sink vanity, in tasteful contrast with the otherwise contemporary styling.
In short, an appealing flat measuring over 675 square feet of internal space, with a light and airy mix of original features and contemporary design on a sought-after street, close to the action but far enough away to retain a real sense of calm. Early registration of interest advised.
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.
