Peckham Grove, Peckham

£350,000

Big and bright one bedroom modern-build fourth floor apartment of 461 square feet, with stair and lift access. Find your new flat in a low-rise residential setting, in a surprisingly peaceful spot between Peckham and Camberwell centres, really close to brilliant Burgess Park.

There is secure entry to the building - Grove Court - and communal areas are spacious and smartly-kept. From your own front door, there is a handy built-in coat closet to your right.

A door on your left opens to your bathroom with large square tiling, simple white suite, and an over-bath shower.

It is straight ahead for your sunny and supersized bedroom, which runs over 15 feet by over 9 feet. A generous fitted wardrobe has sliding mirrored doors.

Your open-plan reception/dining room/kitchen completes the tour. This is over 23 feet by over 10 feet. A Plykea kitchen is a proper highlight. So smart and on-trend. A welcome coral hue to the kitchen walls further impresses.

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

Socialising? Both local town centres have lots on 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, Mr Bao and Pizza Nerds.

In SE5, check out The Camberwell Arms, Theo’s, Veraison Wines, Little Cellars, Forza Win and The Kerfield Arms. For easy-reach groceries there is a small Tesco store on Southampton Way (there is a Puregym here as well). For luxury ones, check out Gladwell’s and TOAD bakery in strollable Camberwell. South London Gallery is opposite.
