Property details

Keating Estates are proud to present to market a delightful one double bedroom garden flat, set within a handsome Victorian end-of-terrace on the desirable Josephine Avenue, a sought-after and leafy no-through road. This beautiful home has local amenities on the doorstep, nearby green spaces including Brockwell Park and is a short walk to the centre of Brixton.

Lovingly cared for by the current owner, this stunning garden flat has retained period features and offers generous dimensions and an appealing layout over the raised ground floor, creating an airy, spacious and homely feel.

Set to the front of the property is the charming reception room, complete a feature fireplace, high ceilings with cornicing and picture rails plus a large bay window overlooking the tree-lined avenue and bathing the room with natural light. With sizeable proportions in which to relax and dine this room is a true heart of the home, perfect for unwinding and entertaining guests, with space for a home office should this be required. To the rear of the property sits a separate kitchen with sleek wooden cabinets offering plenty of storage, topped with wooden surfaces to create a contemporary Scandinavian style ambience, perfect for cooking with views over the gardens behind.

Relishing the same leafy garden views, the double bedroom is quietly nestled away to the rear of the property, neutrally decorated with built in storage plus ample space for wardrobes and additional storage options plus a desk or dressing table. Completing the interior of this lovely home, the family-sized bathroom separates the bedroom from the social space, equipped with both bath and shower and offering mirrored storage for a neat and tidy finish.

The private garden is a peaceful spot, surrounded by greenery, a dreamy oasis with the potential to landscape, ideal for whiling away the evenings with a glass of your favourite tipple whilst tending to plants and vegetables or relaxing and hosting BBQs throughout the warmer months of the year.

Set within the Josephine conservation area on the sought-after Josephine Avenue, the location is not to be underestimated. The local amenities on Brixton Hill including shops, restaurants and bars are just a couple of minutes’ walk away, and the property offers the benefit of being in close proximity to vibrant central Brixton whilst sufficiently distant from its busy high street activities and noise, 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 just a ten-minute stroll away, yet will be able to retire to the quieter, village-like community that has been developed around Brixton Hill. Brockwell Park is just two-minutes from the end of the road, leading you into sleepier Herne Hill for a stroll around the Sunday market. In the other direction, the popular establishments of Abbeville Village are an eighteen minute walk away, with Clapham High Street, Old Town and the Common just a few minutes further. First stop on the Victoria Line at Brixton tube station is only a ten-minute walk, whisking you into central London and the City within a few minutes, as well as the regular day and night bus options at the end of the avenue.

Early registration of interest advised.

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.
