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
A one double bedroom apartment securely nestled on the first floor of one of the converted Victorian townhouses, ideally located for easy access to both Brixton and Clapham centres. The bright reception room at the front of the property is perfectly formed with high ceilings, bespoke shelving and a feature fireplace all contributing to the characterful feel throughout the flat. Sitting adjacent, the modern galley kitchen has all you need in terms of storage and space for a small dining table. The double bedroom is bright and tucked away quietly at the back of the building with a large window that overlooks the peaceful neighbouring gardens at the rear. Last but not least there is a contemporary bathroom separating the living space and the bedroom. The property is situated in a popular location and unlike a lot of similar conversions, the majority of the total square footage is useable living space with good room dimensions, as opposed to being distributed within larger hallways. A fantastic blank canvas, ready for a purchaser to move in hassle-free and add their own touch over time.
As far as locations go, it doesn’t get much better: equidistant from two sought-after areas, attracting purchasers contemplating moving to both Brixton and Clapham. The bars and restaurants of Acre Lane are at the end of the road and within a short stroll, the new purchaser will have everything that Brixton has to offer, from music venues and the extremely popular Brixton Village to Brockwell Park with the iconic Lido and super-fast links to Central London. Within an eight-minute walk in the other direction, the vibrant and diverse Clapham High Street offers great nightlife, culinary delights and the green open spaces of Clapham Common. Potential purchasers will benefit from both the Northern Line (Clapham North and Clapham Common tube stations) and the Victoria Line (Brixton tube station). The property will appeal to a wide range of purchasers from first-time buyers to buy-to-let investors and anyone looking for an extremely well-located pied à terre.
