Flat for sale in London SE5, 2 Bedroom

Splendid split-level Victorian conversion flat with private garden on a residential street that’s close to all things Peckham, East Dulwich and Camberwell. East Dulwich Station is a five minute walk, Peckham Rye an 11 minute one, and Denmark Hill is yours in 12. Bellenden Road and Lordship Lane are each a short stroll away for independent shopping and people-watching. The flat boast high ceilings and modern decor and fittings, as well as two pretty bay windows to front and rear. Leasehold.

You share a hall with the flat upstairs. Once in, swing a right into your own front door and you land in the hall for the flat itself. To the front of the house is the second bedroom in an attractive pink hue with pale carpet. Adjacent is the bathroom with smart white contemporary suite, built-in cupboards and travertine tiling. The master bedroom is next door and this has a double-glazed window to leafy and sky views, plus pale walls and carpet again.

Take a few stairs down from the hall (nice touch) and you’ll land in the generous, solid-wood floored reception room with gorgeous bay at the foot. It stretches nearly 18 feet. The kitchen feels part open-plan with clever window allowing you you to keep in contact with guests etc. Two skylight windows feature in the kitchen as well as modern fitted units and integrated appliances. Open the part-glazed back door to the private 22 foot garden that gets great light and sun owing to its easterly orientation. It’s a really private setting with leafy railway land beyond. The garden has shingled and hard areas as well as large box planters to exercise green fingers.

You’ll want for very little in this locale. Nip down to Bellenden Road for posh coffee and fresh loaves at Anderson’s or The General Store. Impress friends and family with the Keralan cuisine at Ganapati or the fine Italian fayre at Artusi. There’s a big handy Sainsbury’s locally on Dog Kennel Hill, or grab some market life on Rye Lane or North Cross Road. Other eating and drinking establishments worthy of note locally include The George Canning, The Phoenix, The Victoria Inn, The Hermits Cave and The Camberwell Arms. Local parks include the ‘secret’ Lettsom Gardens, Warwick Gardens, Ruskin Park, Peckham Rye Park and Common and Goose Green.
