Massive one bedroom Victorian conversion flat, on the upper ground floor of a grand Victorian semi-detached townhouse, close to both Queens Road Peckham (nine minutes) and New Cross Gate stations (six minutes), within Telegraph Hill Conservation Area. Chain free. You have got the best position in the building we think (gosh, those high ceilings!) and the flat has its own private rear balcony plus a large communal garden. Both are south-east facing so you'll catch plenty of rays, and enjoy fab light through the apartment as well. A new boiler is an a further bonus. There is a communal entrance and from there open your own front door and turn right for the enormous reception/dining room - this is over 20 feet by over 14, and at the foot you have got double doors to the blissful balcony where you can look over the deep and established communal garden, and steps deliver you down (there is side/street access as well). The dining area of the main room has ceiling-high bespoke built-in storage. The property has a fab layout with no wasted corridor space: all rooms lead from the main room. At the foot of the room you've got the door to the kitchen - which has been recently renovated. Modern units, stone worktops, ceramic brick-style tiling and open shelving detail all look and work great. You have a window to sunny garden views. The (also recently and beautifully done) contemporary shower room is next door, with on-trend monochrome detailing, concealed plumbing, and under-basin storage. This room is also plumbed for your washing machine, with a perfect slot for it. Your large double bedroom is set to the front of the house, of over 14 feet by over 12, with a huge bay window and a wall of wardrobing (again, to the ceiling). As in the reception room; you have got solid oak flooring. Telegraph Hill's parks are local to you, and the lower park has a lovely weekly Saturday market. Another good market to check out is Brockley Market; held in Lewisham College's walled car park (more glam than it sounds(!), also on Saturdays). Queens Road Peckham and New Cross Gate stations are both a short, easy walk away for Windrush line and regular services (London Bridge is just one stop from NXG, or pick up the Jubilee line at Canada Water). The day and night bus routes are brilliant too in this part of town. Local galleries include Goldsmiths CCA (a very short walk) and South London Gallery in Camberwell (a short bus ride). White Cube Bermondsey is also easily reached. Local eateries and drinkeries of note include The Rose, Queens, Beer Rebellion, The Earl of Derby, Skehan's, The Old Library and Corner (cafe with lates). For more options, it is a short journey to Greenwich, Deptford, Nunhead, Peckham and Camberwell. Tenure: Share of Freehold Council tax band: B Borough: Lewisham
