Property details

Abundant in endearing Victorian characteristics, this well-appointed two double bedroom garden flat is arranged over the ground floor of a handsome period terraced house, nestled on one of Brixton’s most popular residential roads.

At close to 850 square feet and boasting two private outside spaces and high ceilings throughout, the property offers an exciting opportunity to stamp your own mark, but is already plentiful in attractive features. Both bedrooms are appealing with individual charm. The initial bedroom at the front of the property is particularly spacious and boasts a stunning feature fireplace, tastefully finished built-in storage and a large bay window with wooden shutters. The hardwood flooring runs through into the adjacent reception room, displaying a second feature fireplace and French doors our onto a delightful private patio area. The space is perfect for entertaining, with good dimensions to lounge as well as space for a large dining table if desired.

Towards the rear of the building, a well-equipped contemporary kitchen, complete with integrated appliances also offers a second, more casual dining option. The second bedroom is a particularly attractive space with a large skylight above and French doors that allow a seamless transition out onto the leafy, private rear garden. The garden is a delightful outside space, low-maintenance with plenty of mature plants, ideal for hosting BBQs and savouring the warmer months. A family-sized bathroom with a free-standing roll-top bath tub completes the property.

The property is a short ten-minute stroll down Brixton Hill to the centre of Brixton, and first stop on the Victoria Line (arguably London’s favourite Underground Line, being an 11 minute journey to Oxford Circus). At the end of Bonham Road is vibrant Brixton Hill and its brilliant array of cafes, pubs and restaurants, such as The Naughty Piglets, Maremma, F Mondays, Pizza Brixton, and the White Horse pub, to name a few. The extremely popular Brixton Village and POP Brixton also offer countless options for cuisine and the lush, green open spaces of the award-winning Brockwell Park are just a short stroll away, 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. In the other direction, purchasers will also benefit from everything that Clapham has to offer within a fifteen-minute walk: there are a multitude of restaurants, boutique shops and coffee shops on the High Street, Abbeville Village and Venn Street. There are excellent transport links with access to the Overground at Clapham High Street station and two Northern Line underground stations; Clapham Common and Clapham North tube stations.

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.
