Property details

A characterful one double bedroom garden flat, located on a popular residential street in the heart of the Josephine Avenue conservation area.

The spacious, open-plan reception room is a bright and airy space, with high ceilings, a striking fireplace and plenty of space for both dining and relaxing. French doors not only allow natural light into the room but also provide access onto the leafy and peaceful private garden – this pretty space is sure to be used frequently throughout the warmer months and feels worlds away from the hustle and bustle of city life. The modern kitchen is complete with all the mod cons you may need, whilst the bathroom is contemporary. The double bedroom at the front of the property is fantastic size and boasts a lovely feature fireplace. The room is flooded with natural light through the wide bay window. The property is accessed on the ground floor and unlike many similar conversions, the majority of the total square footage is usable living space, as opposed to being distributed within large hallways. This is a lovely flat with an abundance of characterful features, and is sure to appeal to a wide range of potential purchasers.

The property has supermarkets within reach and is a couple of minutes’ walk from what many local people claim as the best park in London, Brockwell Park. The pubs, bars and restaurants of Brixton Hill and Effra Road are a short stroll. The property benefits from all that Brixton offers, from the celebrated cuisine in Brixton Village to the music venues and nightlife the area is famous for and first stop on the Victoria Line at Brixton tube station, a ten to twelve minute walk away. There are few properties in the area that have as many positive attributes, from the style, characterful features, outside space and the proximity to all the action the area has to offer - we really like it.

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.
