Guide price £350,000 - £375,000.

One double bedroom first floor Victorian conversion flat with double-glazing and a cute private balcony (off the kitchen). Parking on-street is currently unrestricted.

Find your new home in a pretty tree-lined residential setting. It is a quiet side-street which is pleasingly close to Queens Road Peckham Station (under five minutes by foot) for regular and Overground rail services.

You’re also but a 15 minute walk from Nunhead Station and Peckham Rye Station (Fare Zone 2), Nunhead’s high street area, and Rye Lane.

There is just one flat below yours and you share a hall. Your own front door is directly ahead and opens to stairs up. From here, the property’s windowed bathroom rests to your right. This has a white suite (including Japanese bath) and an over-bath shower.

At the back of the flat you have a modern fitted kitchen, with brick-style wall tiles, recessed lighting, and a double-glazed door to a cute balcony.

From the main landing area (built-in cupboard here), on your left is your double bedroom - it is a good size, at over 11 feet by over 9 feet, with a pale carpet.

The main event is your big south-facing front room of over 14 feet by over 11 feet, with two windows to street vistas. Stripped and varnished boards lie underfoot, flowing in from the hallway.

Though not demised to the flat (it is currently owned by the Freeholder: Southwark Council), you can access the building's loft from the landing - very useful for storage.

What’s about? The Blackbird Bakery - in one of the arches by the station - is a popular spot for coffee, cake and pizza nights. Mamma Dough, two Kudu restaurants, Peckham Cellars, Well & Fed and Beer Rebellion are also popular (all are but a few minutes away on foot). There’s a useful Sainsbury’s on this stretch too.

Bellenden Road and Rye Lane offer up more fab and varied options (we like Ganapati, Forza Wine, Artusi, The Sourcing Table and The Begging Bowl), and Peckham Bazaar is nearby on Consort Road.

You are a short walk from Peckham Library and leisure centre, plus canal path through Burgess Park. And you are also close to New Cross - for Goldsmiths University, a cool contemporary art gallery (Goldsmiths CCA), and Telegraph Hill’s pretty Victorian parks.

Nunhead, Dulwich, Camberwell, Deptford, Greenwich, Bermondsey, Brockley and Brixton are also close for markets, parks, and more places to eat, drink and be merry.
