Smart three bedroom (two doubles, one single) ground floor apartment of 835 square feet, with its own front door, cute private terrace, and a large south-west facing communal garden.

Your new home’s located on a quiet, tree-lined ‘Lyndhurst toast-rack’ street, set between Denmark Hill and Peckham Rye Zone 2 stations (walk 10-15 minutes for either), near South London Gallery. You’re equally close to the popular town centres of Camberwell and Peckham - enjoy easily what both have to offer. Permit-parking is available on-street.

In your own front door and first on your right is the largest of the bedrooms. It’s over 12 feet by over 11 feet, with custom-made window shutters (find these in your reception too).

Next door is another double bedroom with garden vistas. Then you’ve got the third bedroom (also with a double-glazed window to garden views) - a single or obvious nursery, or use it as a generous home office or hobby room.

Next up is a modern bathroom with large profile tiles and over bath shower. There's another independent loo too, next door.

Finally, find the best room: a big double-aspect reception/dining room/kitchen, extending over 24 feet, to double-glazed French doors onto your sunny private decked terrace. The fitted kitchen units are modern. Wooden floors flow through the through-space.

The communal garden is sunny, generous and largely laid to lawn.

Local provision for little ones includes Lyndhurst, The Belham, and Dog Kennel Hill (primaries), and The Villa Nursery and Pre-Prep. School on Lyndhurst Grove (2-7).

Local green spaces? Include Warwick, Lucas and Lettsom Gardens, and Brunswick, Burgess and Ruskin Parks, plus Peckham Rye Park and Common.

Particularly useful bus routes from Peckham Road include the 436 (Paddington and Victoria), the 12 (Oxford Circus) and the 171 (Holborn).

Local eating and drinking establishments of note include Toad bakery, Theo's, Nandine, The Camberwell Arms, The Hermits Cave and The Crooked Well (SE5), and Ganapati, Levan, Miss Tapas, Tonkotsu, Artusi, Forza Wine, The Montpelier and The Begging Bowl (SE15).

In the warm months, Rye Lane’s rooftop bars are the hippest destination for cocktails and people-watching. Rye Lane also has handy high street shops, banks and regular market stalls, and a great value cinema.

Peckham and Camberwell both have good leisure centres with pools, and The Butterfly Tennis Club and Zen Yoga Studio are also local, at the northerly (bottom) end of beautiful Camberwell Grove.
