Flat for sale in London SE5, 2 Bedroom

Two double bed, top (third) floor flat with splendid views, set within a grand Regency style terrace. Denmark Hill Station is gloriously close (walk 8 minutes) for Zone 2 Overground and regular services. Central Camberwell, East Dulwich and Peckham are all within easy walking distance. Share of Freehold.

You’re sitting at the top bit of Camberwell Grove; one of south London’s finest architectural offerings, within Camberwell Grove conservation area. The street is well-known for its handsome, aspirational homes – Georgian in the main – and follows the line of a grove of mature plane trees which once led from a Tudor manor house south to the top of the hill, which afforded an excellent view of the City of London. In 2016, Camberwell Grove was dedicated a charming episode in the bbc series ‘The Secret History of Our Streets’.

The property benefits from a parking space to the front of the terrace, on the generous and shingled drive. Take a few steps up to the front door in gloss black with handsome brass door furniture, and open into a neat communal hall. Take the stairs to the third floor. On entry, the two bedrooms are to your left and right (front and rear). Both are beautifully-proportioned, at over 14 feet by over 12, and over 12 feet by nearly 12, and serve up brilliant views from their respective windows. The reception room is set to the front of the building - beyond the largest of the bedrooms, and has a handsome feature fireplace. Next door is a neat internal bathroom with traditional-style white suite with over bath shower. Last but not least is the kitchen/diner of nearly 12 feet by over 10. White gloss wall and base units are fitted in here, paired with brick-style ceramic tiling.

Lettsom Gardens (birds-eye view available from your flat) is a top local secret space with woodland and allotments. Get your key for a nominal yearly fee. Local larger parks include Ruskin Park, Warwick Gardens and Peckham Rye Park and Common's 113 acres.

You’re on lovely high ground here and London Bridge, London Victoria, Clapham Junction, Kings Cross St Pancras and Canary Wharf, via Canada Water, are all quickly reached with multiple transport options close by. Denmark Hill is your closest station. A pretty stroll from your door. East Dulwich and Peckham Rye stations are also close. You’re also well-served by buses into central London.

Local social hubs include Bellenden Road and Rye Lane (we like Artusi, Ganapati, Anderson’s, Mr Bao, Taco Queen, Peckham Levels and The Bussey Building to name a handful), Camberwell Church Street (in central Camberwell check out Theo's, The Camberwell Arms, The Tiger and The Hermits Cave) and Lordship Lane (for The Palmerston, The Cheese Block, smbs Foods and Franklin's, among other delights).

A large Sainsbury’s store is local on Dog Kennel Hill, or nip down to popular new M&S Food Hall by East Dulwich Station. Pick up fresh loaves from The Hill Bakery on nearby Grove Lane, where you'll also find The Crooked Well – both pub and classy restaurant. The South London Gallery is a short stroll away and Camberwell leisure centre at the foot of Camberwell Grove on Artichoke Place has a good range of classes plus gym and swim facilities. Also at the foot of the hill is Butterfly Tennis Club and Zen Yoga studio next door. Next door to that (by Munday’s hq!), The Grove House pub has recently reopened following a full refurb.
