Coldharbour Lane, Camberwell

£500,000

Really cool oversized one bedroom purpose-built flat (circa 1900), within Denmark Mansions on Coldharbour Lane - which connects Camberwell to Brixton. A large communal garden completes the inviting package.

Your new home is set between the ever-popular town centres of Camberwell and Brixton, near two Fare Zone 2 stations (Loughborough Junction is seven minutes by foot, Denmark Hill Station is 10) and great bus routes.

Open the flat’s front door and you have a surprisingly spacious hall space. From here on your left is the bright kitchen with fitted wall and base units, with back door out to get you to the large and lawned communal garden.

Up a few stairs and next on your left is your double bedroom, of over 11 feet by over 10 feet, with a sash window to green views. Next door is your windowed bathroom, with traditional-style fittings and large profile wall tiles.

Adjacent is your twin-sashed reception room. This is over 12 feet by over 11 feet, with more verdant vistas onto the shared lawned outdoor space. From the landing area there is a cute windowed nook which the current owner uses as a wardrobe area. It could equally be enjoyed as a little WFH space.

A well-connected location you are looking at: excellent bus routes can be found on nearby Coldharbour Lane, including the 345 (South Kensington/Peckham), the 35 (Clapham Junction/Shoreditch, and the 45 (Streatham/Blackfriars).

Loughborough Junction is a brief walk from your door (offering a mere 10 minute journey-time to Blackfriars and Farringdon) and Denmark Hill (both regular and Overground trains) is reached in 10. Or pick up the tube at Brixton for the Victoria line (a circa 20 minute walk or fast bus journey).

Whirled Cinema is a gem, locally: a members-only cinema and bar in a railway arch on Hardess Street.

Central Camberwell and Brixton are close for markets, restaurants, cafes and bars etc., including Brixton Village for pop-ups and regular eating establishments.

A handful of local eateries we rate are Mamma Dough (pizza) and Nanban (Japanese/Brixton Market fusion) on Coldharbour Lane, and The Camberwell Arms, Little Cellars and Veraison Wines on Grove Lane - all on Camberwell Church Street.

Your nearest green space is lovely (Edwardian-era) Ruskin Park - with skyline views, bandstand and tennis courts. Also nearby is beautiful Myatt’s Fields Park: a 14 acre, Victorian-era one. It has a bandstand, tennis courts, cute cafe, and excellent bedding displays.
