Flat for sale in London SE4, 1 Bedroom

Roomy, charming, high-ceilinged one bed conversion flat (or use it as a two bed - the current owners enjoy two reception rooms at the moment) of 720 square feet, plus generous rear garden space, accessed via stairs from the kitchen. Find it on the first floor of a Victorian house, within a 5 minute walk of Brockley Station: Zone 2, for Overground and regular services. You’re also just a 10 minute walk from Nunhead Station, for Thameslink services. Leasehold.

In the shared hall and your own front door straight ahead. Up the stairs and the bathroom’s on your right with over bath shower and white suite. The hall is open to a reception room with window to the side of the building (double-glazed, as throughout). Currently a home office and gym. On through and you arrive at the fitted kitchen in neutral style, with white tiling. A south-facing bay window is the perfect spot for casual dining, and open a back door from here and take a few stairs down to access the garden space that's decked and lawned and ideal for hosting barbies or catching rays. At the front of the flat (up a few stairs from the entrance landing area) is a huge, bayed reception room of over 16 feet by over 13. There's plenty of square feet for zoning dining, seating and study areas. It's painted in an attractive blue hue with on-trend plantation shutters on the lower window panes, and will make an equally impressive master bedroom. Adjacent is a smart double bedroom with pale walls, of 11 feet by over 10. A large landing cupboard completes the tour.

Brockley Station is your closest and from here you're at London Bridge in 10 minutes. Overground trains connect you easily with Canary Wharf via Canada Water, plus plenty of trendy East London destinations.

Brockley has loads of lovely independent offerings including Browns of Brockley for coffee, Parlez, The Gantry and The Orchard restaurants (steak and cocktails highly recommended at the latter). The Rivoli Ballroom is also wonderful for theme and cinema nights. You may have spotted it on 'Strictly Come Dancing', as they regularly use it for filming.
