A larger-than-average two-bedroom conversion in the heart of Brixton, this lower-ground flat offers a rare combination of period character and recent modernisation. The generous L-shaped kitchen flows into a bright reception room, creating a comfortable open-plan space ideal for first-time buyers who want room to entertain and work from home. Recent updates include a new kitchen, bathroom, boiler and double glazing.
You have the convenience of your own front door and direct access to a substantial communal garden with a patio — a valuable outside space for central-London living. At about 875 sq ft, the layout feels roomy for a two-bed and includes an extra study space that can be a home office or guest room. Transport links are excellent: Brixton tube, mainline and many buses are all within a short walk.
Practical facts to note: the property is leasehold with 104 years remaining; a share of freehold can be purchased separately for £10,500. Service charge is very low at £300 per year and ground rent is nil. The building dates from before 1900 and has solid brick walls (no added cavity insulation assumed), which may affect heating efficiency despite the new boiler and double glazing.
Be realistic about the area: this is a lively, inner-city location with excellent amenities and strong local culture, but it records high crime levels and high area deprivation statistics. For buyers seeking central convenience, a sizable garden and a renovated period home with private access, this flat represents a practical, well-updated entry into Brixton living. For those sensitive to neighbourhood safety or long-term insulation performance, factor in potential security measures and energy-improvement costs.
