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.

Property details
Keating Estates are proud to present this four-bedroom, two-bathroom split-level apartment, set within an attractive end-of-terrace Victorian property. This exceptional home is located on the leafy and community-focused Leander Road, within easy walking distance of central Brixton and Herne Hill, and just moments from Brockwell Park.
The handsome Victorian façade immediately establishes a welcoming tone, showcasing classic brickwork and period detailing. The apartment is accessed via a private entrance at ground-floor level, where an internal staircase leads to the first floor and the main living areas.
The heart of the home is the reception room at the front of the first floor, offering generous proportions and a warm, inviting atmosphere. A characterful bay window, complemented by an additional sash window, floods the space with natural light throughout the day. Thoughtfully designed alcove shelving provides an ideal display area, while a calming neutral palette and sleek flooring create a contemporary yet tranquil setting. There is ample space for both living and dining, making this room well suited to everyday life and entertaining.
To the rear of the first floor, the kitchen enjoys a desirable double-aspect outlook over both Leander Road and Helix Road. The bay window features a charming window seat, creating a perfect nook for casual dining. Finished with elegant cream cabinetry and solid worktops, the kitchen combines timeless style with excellent functionality.
Also on this level is the family bathroom, fitted with a shower over the bath and benefiting from a window for natural ventilation. The third bedroom is also located on this floor and is neutrally presented, featuring a decorative fireplace and bespoke shelving within the alcoves.
The upper floor houses three further bedrooms, offering excellent separation between living and sleeping areas. The principal bedroom is located at the front of the property and benefits from an en-suite bathroom with a shower cubicle.
The second bedroom is a well-proportioned double at the rear, enjoying leafy views. The fourth bedroom is versatile and could be used as a children’s room, walk-in wardrobe, or home office.
Leander Road is a peaceful residential street within a Low Traffic Neighbourhood, providing minimal through-traffic and a notably quiet environment. The road benefits from a strong sense of community, with residents organising events such as an annual summer street party, Christmas carols and other social gatherings. An active residents’ WhatsApp group further supports neighbourly connections, upcycling initiatives, and community support, contributing to the area’s welcoming reputation.
The location is highly sought after, just a short walk from the heart of Brixton with its renowned food scene at Brixton Village, vibrant cultural offerings, and direct access to the Victoria line. A large supermarket and a wide selection of cafés, pubs and restaurants, including Naughty Piglets, Stir Coffee and the Elm Park Tavern, are close by. Brockwell Park is moments away, offering expansive green space, the iconic 1930s Lido and excellent sports facilities, while Herne Hill’s amenities and transport links are also within easy reach via a pleasant walk through the park.
