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.

Property details
Keating Estates are proud to present to market this spacious two double bedroom apartment with a private South-East facing garden, occupying the upper floor of an imposing detached Victorian residence on Fiveways Road.

Set back from the street behind a low brick wall and gated entrance, the handsome detached building boasts undeniable kerb appeal. Stone steps lead up to an elegant arched entrance porch, creating a wonderful first impression before you even step inside.
Occupying the upper floor, the apartment enjoys an elevated position that enhances both privacy and natural light. High ceilings, large sash windows and neutral décor create a wonderfully bright, airy atmosphere, offering an excellent blank canvas ready for a purchaser to make their own.

Sleek white cabinetry wraps around the room to maximise storage and worktop space, framing the dining area, while open shelving and striking black tiled splashbacks add personality. Leafy rear views create a calming backdrop while cooking or dining.
Both bedrooms are comfortable doubles, positioned away from the reception spaces for added privacy. Each benefits from fitted wardrobes and charming sash windows with traditional timber panelling beneath. The bathroom continues the generous proportions found throughout the apartment. A classic roll-top bath sits beneath the window, complemented by a separate walk-in rainfall shower. Panelled walls and traditional-style contemporary fittings combine to create a timeless, elegant finish. Further benefits include access to a loft, providing valuable additional storage.
The true highlight is the substantial private South-East facing garden.
