Renting in Brixton

Brixton anchors the southern end of the Victoria line, putting Oxford Circus about 15 minutes away with trains every couple of minutes at peak. Around the station, the covered arcades of Brixton Village and Market Row have become one of London's best-known food quarters, while the surrounding streets mix Victorian terraces, mansion-block conversions and ex-council estates — with Windrush Square and Brockwell Park's lido as the neighbourhood's shared living room.
