Property details

A wonderfully bright and airy two double bedroom, top floor apartment, nestled next to Brockwell Park. This gated development offers all the advantages of modern design and security, including an allocated parking space, and is ideally located with direct access to the park - it's easy to forget that you are indeed just minutes from central Brixton.

A smart open-plan reception is the heart of the home, comfortable dimensions to relax and unwind, dine and entertain, with a fully equipped, integrated kitchen opening out onto the space, offering an abundance of storage options and surface space. Both bedrooms are well proportioned, large enough to double up as home offices whilst still maintaining comfortable sleeping arrangements and plenty of space for storage. The property is completed by a family-sized modern bathroom. There is also the additional benefit of access to a substantial undemised loft space, providing an abundance of storage.

Having access to a green space is now more important than ever for our wellbeing – luckily, the lush, open spaces of the award-winning Brockwell Park are right next to the property, along with its iconic 1930’s Lido and unrivalled sports facilities. A pleasant walk through the park will bring you to leafy Herne Hill, and all that this village-like neighbourhood has to offer. With the park next door, and the enormous variety of night-life and restaurants on offer ten minutes away in Brixton, the location cannot be overstated. The popular establishments down Tulse Hill are also easily reached, including neighbourhood favourite haunts such as Naughty Piglets, Maremma and The Hootenanny. This elegant apartment is ideal for anyone who wants to be close to the action while maintaining a sense of calm. The new owner will have the best of both worlds, with everything on offer in the hustle and bustle of central Brixton, yet will be able to retire to this peaceful development. First stop on the Victoria Line at Brixton tube station is only a ten-minute stroll away, whisking you into central London and the City within a few minutes. In the other direction is Herne Hill, with super-quick train links into the City and Victoria - there really is something for everyone.

Brixton area highlights

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.
