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.

Property details
Keating Estates are delighted to present to market a beautifully appealing one bedroom flat, arranged over the ground floor of an attractive Victorian conversion on Strathleven Road. This charming property benefits from its own private patio at the front of the building and a private entrance, in a highly desirable location within easy reach of both Brixton and Clapham High Streets.
A sympathetic layout combined with high ceilings and characterful sash windows provides an elegant, light and airy feel throughout this lovely home. The bedroom is a fantastic size with built-in wardrobes and sits adjacent to a comfortable living room, ideal for entertaining, relaxing and unwinding. The separate kitchen maximises the space on offer and has all you need in terms of mod cons. The contemporary bathroom completes the property and is finished with tasteful fixtures and fittings. The flat benefits from a wrap-around patio at the front of the property which is ideal for green-fingered purchasers who can look to add some foliage to create some separation from the hustle and bustle of London living. The property is situated in a popular location and unlike a lot of similar conversions, the majority of the total square footage is useable living space, as opposed to being distributed within larger hallways.
Strathleven Road is a quiet and peaceful residential street, located equidistant to amenities in both Brixton and Clapham, appealing to purchasers looking to buy in both of these sought-after neighbourhoods. The cafes, bars and restaurants of Acre Lane are at the end of the road, with local heroes such as Cayena Coffee Roasters and Insta-famous Aries Bakehouse on the doorstep, along with large-brand supermarkets. Within a further few minutes’ walk down the road, purchasers will find themselves in the heart of Brixton, with Brixton Village, POP Brixton, The Ritzy cinema and the legendary music venues, Brixton Academy and Brixton Electric, all at their fingertips, as well as The Upstairs private members club. In the other direction, is vibrant and bustling Clapham High Street offering cracking nightlife, culinary delights and the green open spaces of Clapham Common. A short ten-minute stroll brings you to Abbeville Village with an abundance of local shops including The Ginger Pig butchers, MacFarlane’s Deli and the charming pub, The Abbeville. Potential purchasers will benefit from the Northern Line (Clapham North and Clapham Common tube stations) and the Victoria Line (Brixton tube station).
Chain-free.
