Property details

This hugely characterful two/three double bedroom apartment is 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 home 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 fourth and top floor of one of the road’s iconic Victorian mansion blocks. The apartment boasts a considerable square footage, with 921 square feet of internal living space: purchasers will be hard-pressed to find many flats in this location that compare in overall size. The separate reception room at the front of the property is a considerable size, with large sash windows, a feature fireplace, and high ceilings adding to the sense of character. The two well-proportioned, generous double bedrooms are both quietly tucked away to the rear of the property. The eat-in kitchen offers an abundance of storage options, surface space and is completed with integrated appliances and attractive tiling, plus ample space for a large dining table - making this apartment an ideal choice for anyone who enjoys entertaining on a regular basis. This gorgeous flat is completed by a well-appointed bathroom, with luxury fittings and an attractive stained glass window. The space is incredibly versatile and the layout could be altered depending on the purchaser's requirements - there is the option to configure the property as a three-bedroom flat, should an additional bedroom be required. Potential purchasers will also have access to the spacious, well-maintained communal terrace below - perfect for hosting summer BBQs or relaxing with a drink throughout the warmer months of the year.

This superb apartment 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.
