Champion Hill Estate, Camberwell

£495,000

Rarely available three double bedroom ex-LA second floor flat of 802 square feet, with a private south-west facing balcony (directly accessed from your reception room) plus extensive communal greenery. The flat is double-glazed throughout, with real European engineered natural oak wood flooring in all three bedrooms, lounge/diner and hallway.

You’re pleasingly close to St. Francis Park and Dulwich Hamlet football ground, and to both East Dulwich and Denmark Hill stations (walk six and eight minutes by foot respectively), and excellent bus routes (185, 176, 40, 484 - to name a few) on Dog Kennel Hill, and there’s permit parking available for residents.

Your flat - accessed at second floor level via the block stairs or lift - is set apart from others on the floor (access via gated entranceway), with windows on all sides of the flat - allowing for plenty of natural light throughout the rooms.

From the hall, you have your separate and recently renovated w.c to your left. Next to this is a cloak cupboard storage room, then the recently renovated windowed bathroom, with over-bath shower, under-basin storage and towel ladder radiator. Both separate w.c. and bathroom have new floor tiling. Shelving storage space feature in the hallway.

Your large reception room is set to your right - it’s large at over 14 feet by over 11 feet; zone separate seating and dining areas very easily here and includes a large storage cupboard. Open a double-glazed door to your own balcony, which delivers a leafy outlook and has a sunny orientation.

Moving through the flat, next on your left is the independent kitchen. Timeless modern wall and base units feature here.

Finally, you have your three double bedrooms (two doors are to your right, and the third is straight ahead): the first is over 11 feet by over 8 feet, and the other two are both 11 feet by over 10 feet. Freshly painted white walls, ceilings, woodwork and doors throughout the flat are the order of the day. You also have a new electrical unit system installed, together with a recent gas safety check.

A great flat and a fab spot as well! You are close to many community-managed green open spaces which include Dog Kennel Hill Wood and Green Dale Fields. You’re also but a short walk from Ruskin Park and Lettsom Gardens (a gated community garden you can get a key for). Goose Green and Peckham Rye Park & Common are also nearby.

Set between Camberwell, East Dulwich and Peckham centres, you can enjoy what all have to offer, all the time! Herne Hill, Brixton, Nunhead and Dulwich Village are also easily reached.

A handful of cool local SE5 pubs and eateries most local to you include Grove House Tavern, The Phoenix, Forza Win, The Camberwell Arms and Theo’s.

In SE15 you’ve got treats which include Ganapati, The Sourcing Table, The Begging Bowl and Artusi. Rye Lane’s just a touch further for be-seen-at destinations such as Peckham Levels and The Bussey Building.

For groceries, you’re close to the big Sainsbury’s Superstore and Starbucks on Dog Kennel Hill, and the M&S Food Hall by ED Station.

There are lots of strong independent foodie options on local Lordship Lane as well; we like SMBS, The Cheese Block and William Rose a lot! And while you’re on Lordship Lane, do check out the Picturehouse cinema and North Cross Road Saturday Market.

Local leisure centres are found on East Dulwich Road and in central Camberwell, and you have Zen Yoga studio at the bottom of Camberwell Grove, with a community tennis club (Butterfly) next door.
