Fairwall House, Peckham Road, Camberwell

£495,000

Beautifully-renovated three double bedroom ex-LA apartment of 843 square feet, set over two floors (third and fourth) of a low-rise brick-built block which is set off the main road. You will enjoy a glorious view of St. Giles’ spire: a delightful local landmark.

You are well-located here, between Camberwell and Peckham’s town centres, and just a 12 minute walk from Denmark Hill Station.

Your own front door is at third floor level. Open into a smart windowed hall space with crisp white walls (as throughout). A couple of built-in hall cupboards are very welcome, for coats and cleaning bits etc.

To the front of the flat you have a smart shower room with contemporary sanitary ware and fittings including under-basin storage, and modern kitchen (with plenty of gleaming gloss-white cupboards and good worktop space). Rectangular ceramic tiles pleasingly feature in both rooms.

Across the hall, find your first double bedroom of 13 feet by 10 feet (which is currently enjoyed as a dining room, and faces sunny south-west), and your large reception room - of 12 feet by neatly 13 feet.

Take the stairs to your upstairs - here you’ll land on two further double bedrooms (both are a good size and have built-in closets.

Such a pretty and turnkey pad, and a cracking location to boot. Denmark Hill is Fare Zone 2 and on the Overground network. You are also spoilt for choice of day and night buses on Peckham Road, whizzing you to Oval, Brixton and Elephant & Castle tube and beyond.

Cambers is quickly adding to an already-established list of greats (The Camberwell Arms, Hermits Cave, Theo’s, The Crooked Well, Nandine and Grove Lane Tavern among others) - check out Veraison Wines, Gladwell’s and Grove Lane Deli (for luxury groceries), Forza Win, Momo and Little Cellars among others.

Local Peckham nightlife includes The Peckham Pelican, Peckham Levels and The Bussey Building & Copeland Park - the latter two are on Rye Lane. Rye Lane also serves you well for fruit and veg, and handy high street shops. Other very local spots for the daytime include South London Gallery and South London Louie (cafe), and TOAD bakery (worth the queue!).

Bellenden Road is a 15 minute stroll, for cafes and independent shops and restaurants. Not a chain in sight! We love Review for books, Ganapati (Keralan food at its utter finest), Artusi and The General Store. Choumert Road is also close for Petitou cafe and The Montpelier pub.

For more options, it’s a short bus ride or cycle for Brixton, Herne Hill, New Cross and Dulwich.
