Property details

This charming one double bedroom garden flat benefits from generous proportions and a brilliant location. There is a bright and characterful reception room occupying the front of the property, with a large bay window that floods the room with natural light. A feature fireplace and built-in bespoke shelving add to the tasteful style of the room, in which there is plenty of space to relax comfortably and unwind, or to entertain guests. Adjacent and residing peacefully towards the rear is the bedroom. A floor to ceiling glass door opens out onto the side return of the garden and serves the room with plenty of natural light and fresh air, creating a lovely atmosphere within.

Further down the hallway, a modern yet traditional integrated eat-in kitchen, with plenty of space to cook and dine plus French doors that open out onto the low-maintenance, attractive private garden. Benefitting from a south-west facing direction, this garden soaks up sun into the later hours and is ideal to host barbeques and relax in the warmer months, hosting guests on the decked area with attractive bordering flower beds. The flat is completed by a contemporary bathroom.

The apartment is perfectly positioned on a quiet residential street which is highly sought after for its character, feel and equidistance between Clapham and Brixton. Abbeville Village is a short walk away, the bars and restaurants of Acre Lane are also a short walk and within a ten-minute stroll down the road, you will have everything that Brixton has to offer, from Brockwell Park and the extremely popular Brixton Village, to large brand-shops and excellent transport links. With easy access to the first stop on the Victoria line and ten-minute’s walk in the other direction, you will be in the vibrant heart of Clapham offering great dining and nightlife, the Northern line and the green open spaces of Clapham Common.

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.
