Gautrey Road, Nunhead

£499,950

Bright first floor leasehold ex-LA apartment of 663 square feet, with its own front door, off-street parking for residents, access to attic storage, a neutral decorative scheme, and a strong and flexible layout. It is set within a low-rise and red-brick block, on a leafy and quiet yet well-connected Nunhead street.

In current setup you have two large double bedrooms, a home office, and an open-plan kitchen/reception room. If you preferred you could give over a bedroom to further lounge space, and the office could be a single bedroom instead. There is an independent plumbed utility cupboard, too.

Find your new pad on a residential Nunhead street within really easy reach of both Queen's Road Peckham (walk eight minutes) and Nunhead (six minutes) stations.

Your front door is at first floor level. Attractive square floor tiles feature in the hall and flow through all the rooms. To your right on entry is the current office room, of over 8 feet by nearly 7 feet.

Next door is the reception room/kitchen, of over 17 feet by over 9 feet, with double-glazed window at the kitchen end (the property pleasingly is double-glazed throughout). Your modern bathroom is just across the hall, with a neat white suite. Next door is a plumbed utility cupboard with basin.

Two large double bedrooms complete matters. The largest is over 17 feet by over 9 feet, and the second is over 14 feet by over 8 feet. Both enjoy a sunny southwesterly orientation.

A top location, this. You are close to a thriving high street, Victorian library, and two stations (handily between them covering Thameslink, Southern, South Eastern and Overground services).

The beautiful Victorian Nunhead Cemetery - one of ‘The Magnificent Seven’ with organised tours and beautiful big trees - is also local (walk about 12 minutes).

Village-cool Nunhead has a central Green, playground and community centre (by AOC architects), and excellent long-established staples including a bakery, wet-fish shop, and a huge pharmacy/post office. Newer popular arrivals include Goodcup coffee shop (/Goodnights bar is downstairs), The Nunhead Gardener, Mother Superior bottle shop/deli/bar, El Vermut bottle shop/bar, and BARD4100 (excellent pizzas and beers). There is also a handy Co-Op.

The Old Nun’s Head, The Pyrotechnist’s Arms and The Earl of Derby are popular local pubs.

It is a short stroll to Telegraph Hill's delightful parks (with skyline views and a weekly Farmers’ Market), and also to Peckham Rye Park and Common’s 113 acres.

For more options... Peckham, Camberwell, New Cross, Deptford, Brockley and Greenwich are all close.
