Full Description

Keating Estates are proud to present to market this beautifully presented two double-bedroom, end-of-terrace, Victorian conversion apartment, benefiting from an off-street parking space and a private roof terrace.

Set back from the road, this charming home enjoys a wonderfully peaceful feel from the moment you arrive, offering a real sense of privacy that is rarely found so close to the heart of Brixton. The apartment is arranged over the first floor and has been thoughtfully improved by the current owners, blending period character with modern comforts to create a stylish yet welcoming living space.

The heart of the home is the impressive reception room positioned at the front of the apartment. Bathed in beautiful south-easterly light, the bay window with elegant sash windows creates a bright and uplifting atmosphere throughout the day. This area forms the perfect nook for a dining table, ideal for leisurely breakfasts or hosting friends while enjoying leafy views across the tree-lined street. Mature trees provide a natural screen from the road, enhancing both privacy and tranquillity. Exposed floorboards add a wealth of character and are complemented by calming neutral tones, giving the room a warm and inviting feel. Cleverly arranged with clearly defined areas for dining and lounging, this is a versatile space, equally suited to entertaining or relaxing during quiet evenings at home.

Adjoining the reception is the new, fully re-fitted semi-open-plan kitchen, which has been thoughtfully designed. Cream cabinetry is paired with quartz worktops to create a timeless and elegant look, while quality appliances have been installed, including an integrated dishwasher. A classic tiled splashback adds to the enduring appeal, and a window overlooking greenery ensures the space is both light-filled and pleasant to cook in, making it as practical as it is attractive.

The first bedroom is located off the main hallway and continues the theme of character and comfort found throughout the apartment. Exposed floorboards, a built-in wardrobe, and a new double-glazed timber sash window combine to create a serene and cosy retreat, with leafy views enhancing the sense of calm.

A short flight of stairs leads down to the rear of the apartment. Here, you will find the bathroom and the second bedroom. The bathroom features a traditional white suite, complete with a rainfall shower over the bath and a heated towel rail. White subway tiling lines the walls, complemented by striking geometric tiled flooring, resulting in a clean, classic look with a contemporary edge.

Positioned quietly at the rear, the second, generously sized bedroom benefits from bespoke built-in cabinetry, offering ample storage with drawers, cupboards, and display shelving. It benefits from a new double-glazed timber sash window, alongside a new double-glazed timber door that opens directly onto the roof terrace, flooding the room with natural light and creating a seamless connection to the outdoors.

The private outdoor space itself is a genuine sanctuary and is surrounded by leafy views. Finished with decking and offering ample room for an outdoor table, seating, and potted plants, it is the perfect spot for entertaining during warmer months or simply unwinding with a book and a glass of wine.

Josephine Avenue is one of Brixton’s most desirable streets, offering a rare combination of tranquillity and urban convenience. Independent coffee spots such as Stir and F Mondays are just around the corner, along with the popular bakery Maya's Bakehouse and fabulous restaurants including the Naughty Piglet and Maremma. The property benefits from close proximity to vibrant central Brixton, yet remains quietly tucked away, ideal for those who want to enjoy the buzz without sacrificing peace and quiet.

Brockwell Park is a five-minute walk away and offers open green space, scenic walks, jogging routes, and the much-loved Lido. From here, you can wander into Herne Hill to enjoy the popular Sunday market, while in the opposite direction, Abbeville Village, Clapham High Street, Old Town, and the Common are all within easy reach.

Excellent transport links further enhance the appeal, with Brixton tube station providing the first stop on the Victoria Line just a ten-minute walk away, alongside regular day and night bus services.
