Hatcham Park Mews, New Cross

£695,000

Beautiful two bedroom, two bathroom ground floor apartment with a fabulous private wide rear garden which has direct access from four(!) pairs of French doors, and gated side access to boot.

Your new and recently renovated home packs an impressive punch! We love the brilliant no-corridor layout, high ceilings and general generous proportions, industrial vibes, lots of (double) glazing, that it has its own front door, a Freehold-share, and a quiet tucked-away setting; away from the hustle and bustle.

More? You are just a teensy saunter from New Cross Gate Station (it is yours in eight minutes).

Open your own front door and you land in the generous entrance hall/lobby which is almost a room in itself (the current owners enjoy it as a library/chill/music area), with doors out to the garden.

Immediately to your left on entry is a built-in coat cupboard, then the main (windowed) bathroom, which is modern in style. Next on your left is your principal bedroom, of 12 feet by over 11 feet, with a welcome run of custom floor-to-ceiling closets to one wall. A contemporary en suite shower room (also windowed) is pleasingly accessed from a door in the corner of the room. Double doors open out to the garden.

Right of the front door you have your second bedroom. This is also a good double, of over 11 feet by 9 feet.

The best bit is next on your right: your large main room, which runs over 21 feet, incorporating seating, dining and kitchen areas and with two sets of double doors. It’s a great space to have friends and family over. Or to just chill alone and smile at the luck you’ve had finding this place!

Walk just eight minutes to New Cross Gate Station, where it is just one stop to London Bridge. Or it is 11 minutes to Queens Road Peckham Station. Both are on the London Overground network for Windrush line services. There are also plenty of day and night bus routes within a short walk of the house; to Elephant & Castle and beyond, or to Peckham, Deptford, Greenwich, Brockley and Lewisham.

There are plenty of local convenience stores and services in the vicinity, plus a great hand-pulled noodle bar (Chinese Noodle Bar) and strong local pubs: The Rose Inn, The Earl of Derby and Skehans are all recommended. Corner cafe (with regular ‘lates’) is a cute, rightly-popular local spot, and The Old Library Bar over the road puts on regular live music.

Local green spaces are Telegraph Hill’s two parks (pizzas are ace up here by The Hill Station cafe) and Nunhead Cemetery, plus a little local neighbourhood one: Eckington Gardens. Slightly further afield you have Southwark Park, Peckham Rye Park and Common, and even Greenwich Park.

For schools? Hatcham Primary is your well-regarded local primary school. Edmund Waller and Kender are also close (both have nursery provision and there are lots of private nurseries around and about as well).
