£950,000

Big, beautiful, recently renovated conversion flat within a supersized semi, with two bedrooms and two bathrooms, and a large garden which has side access and direct access from the second bedroom and the kitchen/reception room. Chain free.

The location is leafy Camberwell Grove Conservation Area. Denmark Hill and Peckham Rye stations are reached by foot in 10 and 12 minutes respectively. Permit-parking is available on the street.

Throughout the property, you have notably high ceilings, high-end fixtures and fittings, and a neutral decorative scheme.

A deep front garden is shared and lawned. Enter a shared main door then your own front door is directly ahead. From your windowed hall to your left is access to the cellar.

To your right is the generous kitchen/reception room, which runs over 25 feet by over 13 feet, with stripped and treated floor boards. Fabulous fitted units are topped with wooden counters.

Off this room to the front of the house is your incredible master bedroom. It’s a whopper! At over 19 feet by over 13 feet, with a big bay window (complete with window seat), coving and rose detailing, a pale carpet, a wood burner and two sizeable custom-made wardrobes to the alcoves.

Return to the hall to find your main windowed bathroom, with a sleek white suite. Finally you have your second bedroom (of over 15 feet by over 7 feet) with a pleasing double-aspect onto the garden and a back door out to it, too. A windowed en suite shower room completes matters.

Your generous private garden is low-maintenance and laid to lawn.
