Dishy three bedroom bay-fronted Victorian mid-terrace house of 1210 square feet, with a pretty garden complete with a gorgeous studio (timber-clad, with power and folding doors). Parking is unrestricted, on the street.

Find your new home on a tree-lined residential back street (very quiet, very little traffic here), pleasingly close to Queens Road Peckham Station; which is just four minutes by foot, for regular and Overground rail services.

You are also but a 15 minute walk from Nunhead Station and Peckham Rye Station, Nunhead’s high street area, and Rye Lane.

A neat walled front garden sets the house back from the pavement. In your front door and from the welcoming hall, your two formal reception rooms rest to your right. The front room is over 13 feet by over 11 feet, and it hosts a wood-burning stove, slimline radiator, and custom-made shutters to the big bay window.

Your second reception room is over 11 feet by over 9 feet, with built-in shelving to one alcove, and a sash window onto the side-return section of the garden. Pale carpets run through both rooms.

At the foot of the hall you have a windowed utility room/w.c. to your right, then up ahead is your double-aspect eat-in kitchen; which has smart and timeless Shaker-style wall and base cabinets teamed with wooden worktops and a ceramic Butler sink, and double-glazed double doors which open onto a paved area (fab for outside meals and drinks).

Beyond this area is a lawn space – with mature borders stocked with a variety of shrubs, flowering plants and hardy herbs – in front of the garden room/studio/home office.

Upstairs and from the half-landing you first have the bathroom to your right. This is a recently renovated contemporary affair with monochrome detailing, under-basin drawers and an over-bath shower. Ceramic tiles in a herringbone pattern further impress. Up ahead is bedroom number one – a neat double (of over 11 feet by over 8 feet) in a deep blue hue.

From the main landing, you have another double bedroom to your left (this one is over 11 feet by over 9 feet, with a deep built-in closet to the near alcove) and the traditional master bedroom, which sits across the front of the building (over 15 feet by over 11 feet), with twin sash windows and built-in wardrobes in both alcoves. All three bedrooms have soft pale carpets.

You can access useful loft space from the landing. There is scope to extend here as neighbours have done.

What’s around? The Blackbird Bakery – in one of the arches by the station – is a popular spot for coffee and cake. Mamma Dough, Peckham Cellars, Well & Fed and Beer Rebellion are also popular (all of a few minutes away on foot), as are Kudu’s classy offerings.

Bellenden Road and Rye Lane offer up more options (a handful of recommendations are Ganapati, The Coal Rooms, Forza Wine, Artusi and The Begging Bowl), and Peckham Bazaar is nearby on Consort Road, for pan-Balkan cooking and a strong wine list.

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 fab contemporary art gallery (Goldsmiths CCA), and Telegraph Hill’s pretty Victorian parks.

Nunhead, Dulwich, Camberwell, Greenwich and Brixton are also close for markets, parks, and more places to eat and drink.

Kids, or thinking of? Local nursery and primary provision includes Kender, Edmund Waller and Hatcham primaries, and Monkey Puzzle, Smart Kids and Stepping Stones nurseries.
