Peckham Grove, Peckham

£425,000

Offers in excess of £425,000.

Bright and roomy two bed (and two bath) warehouse-style apartment with fab dimensions, exposed brickwork, high ceilings, architecty oversized doors and huge windows as well. A private designated parking space completes the package.

Find your new pad in a smart low-rise residential setting, in a pleasingly quiet spot between Peckham and Camberwell centres, really close to Burgess Park’s delightful 56 hectares (lake, cafe, tennis and sports courts here).

There is secure entry to the building, and communal areas are generous and looked after well (regularly cleaned within your service charges). Take the lift or stairs up to the third floor, for your own front door. You open into a neat lobby/hall, with an attractive tiled floor and built-in cupboards to your left and right.

Two double bedrooms are left of the hall. The principal is over 11 feet by nearly 10 feet, with a smart internal en suite modern bathroom. You also have a generous built-in closet with sliding doors. Your second bedroom is nearly 11 feet by over 8 feet.

To the right from the hall you have a sleek shower room featuring cool faux marble tiles, and which doubles as your guest w.c.

Finally, your main room awaits: a spacious open-plan affair, with reception and kitchen areas. Appliances are included in the sale. Another box ticked!

Peckham and Camberwell and their respective stations (Peckham Rye and Denmark Hill) are both a 15-20 minute walk, for Windrush and regular rail services. There are also excellent bus routes on your doorstep and from Peckham Road/Camberwell Church Street, to Elephant & Castle or Oval tube stations and beyond.

For keeping fit, there is a very local Puregym on Southampton Way (as well as leisure centres in Peckham and Camberwell). Burgess Park has a popular Parkrun each Saturday at 9am.

Socialising? Both of your local town centres have loads to offer including (in SE15) Bellenden and Choumert Roads, Blenheim Grove and trendiest Rye Lane with rooftop bars, cinema and brilliant restaurants. Examples are Ganapati, Levan, Artusi, The Begging Bowl and Mr Bao.

In SE5, we rate Gladwell’s, The Camberwell Arms, The Kerfield, Theo’s, Veraison Wines and Little Cellars. For easy-grab groceries, there is a small Tesco store on Southampton Way. And tasty TOAD bakery in strollable Camberwell.
