Beautiful 3 bedroom apartment in central Brixton

The flat is a late Victorian split-level three-bedroom apartment (~1,250 sq ft) on Brixton Road. It has three full-sized bedrooms that can comfortably accommodate double beds, furniture and storage space. It has high ceilings throughout – especially on the lower level – and there are four ornamental wrought iron fireplaces.

All the bedrooms, living room and corridor have wooden floors. The windows are all wooden, and were all fully replaced with double-glazed units in 2021.

The flat has a large living room facing the street, one full bathroom, a separate additional toilet, and a fully equipped kitchen, separate from the living area. There is a terrace and a rooftop but these technically belong to the freeholder. The flat faces southeast, so the living room and the bedroom/office at the front of the building get plenty of light in the morning. The kitchen and bedrooms are very bright in the afternoons.

The kitchen is fully equipped, with an integrated dishwasher, microwave, fridge-freezer, and plenty of storage space. There is also an integrated oven and induction hob, installed last year. The flat has full fibre internet, which is fast, reliable and costs around £30/month. Electricity and gas are both on smart meters. Part of the roof is fully insulated, helping the top floor retain heat in winter. There is gas central heating with radiators in every room.

The entrance hallway is cleaned almost every day and the street-level door is very secure, with both a door lock and entry code in place. Smoke alarms, carbon monoxide alarms, and fire extinguishers are all installed in common areas and the flat itself.

Street parking is available around the corner on Brighton Terrace. Annual permits can be purchased from the council at a reasonable cost. In terms of amenities, the flat is extremely central and less than ten minutes from Victoria by tube. Kings Cross is about twenty minutes away. Brixton is also very well-connected to other parts of London by bus.

A range of supermarkets are a short walk away (Tesco, Sainsbury’s, M&S, Iceland, Lidl) and the flat is right on the high street with easy access to a range of shops and services. Brixton Village is just across the road. The markets on Electric Avenue are also very close by, and Brockwell Park is 10-15 minutes’ walk away.
