Camberwell Grove, Camberwell

£799,950

Oversized two double bedroom Georgian lateral conversion apartment of 1144 square feet, on one of the finest and most lauded and well-connected streets south of the river. Bonus features are an independent utility room and a sizeable walk-in wardrobe. Permit-parking is on-street. Chain free.

Camberwell Grove is the headline act of CG Conservation Area. You are right in its heartland here: very close to central Camberwell and to Denmark Hill Station (Fare Zone 2). Central Peckham and East Dulwich are an easy walk as well: 15 minutes.

A deep front lawn fronts the building. You have your own front door at ground floor level and you open into a cute lobby. Through here and to your right is your first bedroom, of 12 feet by 11 feet.

Another lobby provides access to your reception room, of over 15 feet by 12 feet, with built-in alcove storage.

An independent windowed utility room is up next, and next to this you have your independent kitchen with French doors.

Finally, another lobby delivers access to your windowed bathroom with white suite, and your principal bedroom of 20 feet by 12 feet. A sizeable walk-in wardrobe completes matters.

Boasting impressive architecture (Georgian in the main), Camberwell Grove – the worthy star of a charming episode of the BBC series ‘The Secret History of Our Streets’ (2016) – follows the line of a grove of mature plane trees which once led from a Tudor manor house which afforded an excellent view of the City of London, just three miles to the north.

For local public green spaces, you are really close to St. Giles Churchyard and Lucas Gardens, with Lettsom Gardens, Myatt’s Fields, and Brunswick and Ruskin Parks but a short walk away, too. Brockwell Park, Peckham Rye Park & Common, Burgess Park and even Dulwich and Greenwich Parks are also all easily reached.

Central Camberwell has a strong (and getting ever stronger!) foodie/drinks scene. Some of our favourite places are The Camberwell Arms, The Kerfield Arms (with Michelin star!), Silk Road, Nandine, Theo’s, Gladwell’s, Little Cellars, TOAD (bakery) and Veraison Wines.

Ace local pubs include Grove House Tavern, Hermits Cave, Stormbird, The Phoenix (up by the station) and The Tiger.

Zen Yoga Studio is close, as is Butterfly Tennis Club. Camberwell’s leisure centre is nearby too – with two pools and gym facilities in a pretty Victorian setting.

Peckham’s close as we’ve mentioned – Peckham’s night and high life includes rooftop bars atop Peckham Levels and The Bussey Building. Peckham Plex Cinema is great (and there is a Picturehouse cinema on East Dulwich's Lordship Lane).

Bellenden Road’s best spots include Ganapati, The General Store, The Sourcing Table, Pizza Nerds, The Begging Bowl and Artusi.

For more options, Dulwich, Herne Hill and Brixton are all close.
