Delightful one double bedroom flat with direct access to a private south-facing garden. The flat works great as is; there’s also scope to extend at the back and to the side, to get yourself an extra bedroom (subject to relevant permissions).

The property takes the ground floor of a bay-fronted Victorian terrace. There’s just one flat above you (you share a hall).

The location’s something to smile about too. It’s a dishy, always-requested tree-lined Victorian in the main SE15 street, which intersects Bellenden Road (you’re situated on the upper slope here). Locally, it’s referred to as the Champs-Élysées of Peckham! Residents enjoy permit-parking (restrictions applying 9-11am, keeping those pesky commuters at bay). Walk just six minutes to Peckham Rye Station for Fare Zone 2 trains. You’re also very close to Bellenden Road, Rye Lane and Warwick Gardens.

A neat front wall is topped with box hedging. Open into the hall and your own front door is set to your right. Right again and you’re in the front room - currently a pleasing reception, with stripped floors, a central fireplace, bespoke alcove shelves and cupboards, and sash windows - with original woodwork below your lower panes.

Next door you’ll find your eat-in kitchen - with fitted gloss wall and base units, sleek counters, and a part-glazed back door out to the side-return area of the garden. The hall widens and you can access under stairs storage here. On the other side of the corridor, open into your modern bathroom - which has a contemporary white suite, an over bath shower, and concealed plumbing.

The carpeted double bedroom is at the foot of the hall, with generous built-in closets to the near wall, and with gorgeous garden vistas from double-glazed windows.

You are mere steps from independent shop, cafe, bar and restaurant life. Peckham’s rather a hot spot for socialising for all ages. On Bellenden Road, we particularly love Ganapati, Artusi, The Sourcing Table and The Begging Bowl. Rye Lane is a short stroll further for high street shops and fruit and veg markets, as well as Peckham Levels, The Bussey Building, rooftop bars and other pop-ups. East Dulwich, Camberwell, Nunhead and Herne Hill are also close for further options.

Peckham Rye Station is close for regular and Overground services, and East Dulwich Station is only a tad further (walk 11 minutes). Services to London Bridge and Victoria, Clapham Junction and Canada Water (for Canary Wharf) make the commute or evening or weekend adventures a walk in the park. And if a walk in the park’s what you’re after… local green spaces include Warwick Gardens, Lettsom Gardens, Peckham Rye Park & Common and Ruskin Park. The Peckham Coal Line will soon be added to that list.
