Property details

This is an impressive three bedroom property situated in the heart of Brixton, on Rushcroft Road – overlooking Windrush Square, and a stone’s throw from The Ritzy, Brixton Village and POP Brixton. This unique, split-level apartment is perfect for anyone who wants to be close to all that Brixton has to offer, from nightlife to eateries to suit all tastes, to fantastic shopping. With Brixton tube station, first stop on the Victoria Line, also just a three minute stroll away, the location cannot be overstated.

The property is quietly tucked away off Windrush Square and is situated on the top floor of one of the road’s iconic Victorian mansion blocks. The apartment boasts a considerable square footage, with 1250 square feet of internal living space: purchasers will be hard-pressed to find many flats in the area that compare in size. On entering the property, you are met by two well-proportioned, generous double bedrooms, both offering ample storage and views over the attractive row opposite. On the other side is an impressive reception area. Considerably large windows, multiple skylights and a double-height ceiling create a wonderfully bright and impactful atmosphere on entering this cosy entertaining space, complete with wood floors and a feature fireplace. The space flows seamlessly through to a spacious open-plan kitchen. The entire room is an incredibly sociable space, with a trendy breakfast bar and ample room for a large dining table – perfect for those who dream of entertaining on a regular basis. Just above is a versatile mezzanine level, with a multitude of possible uses such as home office, dressing area, snug or guest room. The cosy third bedroom is tucked away just off the mezzanine, benefitting from views over the neighbouring roof tops.

This characterful property enjoys an unrivalled location, situated in the heart of buzzing Brixton. The wonders of trendy Brixton Village are just a couple of minutes down the road, and purchasers will be able to sample the culinary offerings of local favourites every day, from the likes of Fish Wings n Tings, Eat of Eden, Champagne et Fromage, and Honest Burger, to name just a few. Purchasers will have all the local amenities on the doorstep, but enjoy peace and quiet, tucked away in this handsome mansion block. Having access to a green space is now more important than ever for our wellbeing – fortunately, the lush, open spaces of the award-winning Brockwell Park are a five-minute walk away, along with its popular 1930’s Lido and superb sports facilities. A pleasant walk past the park will bring you to leafy Herne Hill, and all that this village-like neighbourhood has to offer. All in all, this is a fantastic flat in a highly sought-after location.
