Well-presented two double bedroom apartment with contemporary rear extension, on the ground floor of a smart Victorian terrace. A large and lawned private garden of over 40 feet completes the package.

Please note that the sellers are in the process of extending the current lease.

Find your new pad on a favoured tree-lined residential street near Bellenden Road and Peckham Rye Station (walk five and eight minutes). You can also walk to East Dulwich Station in 14 minutes. Warwick Gardens, The Belham School and The Villa Nursery are also close.

From the shared hall (there is just one flat above you), your own front door is on your left. Straight ahead is the door to the larger of your two bedrooms. It’s over 14 feet by 12 feet, with a big bay window with bespoke shutters, stripped floors, custom-made alcove wardrobes, and an attractive fireplace (with stone hearth and exposed brick detail).

Adjacent is bedroom two, of over 11 feet by over 19 feet, with a pale carpet and built-in wardrobes - which pleasingly reach the ceiling again.

Moving through the apartment, on your right you have good storage. To your left is the beautifully-renovated (windowed) bathroom - with such highlights as a marble sink, under-basin storage, herringbone-pattern ceramic tiles, concealed plumbing, and an over-bath shower including separate spray attachment.

At the foot of the hall, open into your large and light open-plan reception room/dining room/kitchen. Folding doors open onto the paved area of the garden.

Your modern kitchen rests in the former side-return space, with three skylight windows, wooden worktops, on-trend open shelves and metro-style wall tiles. The lounge area of the room has a designer-papered feature wall and custom-made entertainment storage.

Peckham Rye is all of a sizzle, with newcomers heading in, and current Peckhamites up or downsizing in the town they know and love.

Peckham has lots of independent shops, restaurants and cafes. Within a matter of minutes you have Artusi, Ganapati, The Sourcing Table, The Begging Bowl, Levan, Petitou, The General Store, Flock & Herd butchery, Il Giardino and Review.

Rye Lane is also close for trendy destinations such as Peckham Levels, The Bussey and Market buildings, and handy high street shops, banks, and fruit and veg stalls. Peckham Plex Cinema is great as well, with films for a fiver.

Central Camberwell is an easy walk down ravishing Camberwell Grove, for South London Gallery and more restaurants and wine bars etc. The Camberwell Arms and Theo's come recommended.

East Dulwich’s Lordship Lane has lovely shops, bars and cafes, as well as an M&S Food Hall and a Picturehouse cinema. And North Cross Road’s regular Saturday market is delightful.

Green space? Warwick Gardens and Lettsom Gardens are just a short walk. Bigger open spaces include Peckham Rye Park and Common, Ruskin and Dulwich Parks.
