Grade II listed Georgian/Victorian - cusp semi - detached house of 1562 square
feet. Enjoy plenty of period features, notably wide hall and landing areas,
two independent reception rooms, a large eat - in kitchen and three double
bedrooms - all delivered over three floors. An alternative setup gives you
four bedrooms and one large reception.
Off - street parking and a generous walled garden (wider than the house and
stretching 50 feet) with gated side access complete the package.
The location is a well - connected spot: You are only nine minutes by foot from
Queens Road Peckham Station, and 11 from New Cross Gate Station. Both are Fare
Zone 2 and offer Overground and regular services. There are lots of useful bus
routes on the road as well.
A yellow front door is a cheery welcome. First on your right is the first
reception - of over 13 feet by over 12 feet, with stripped and stained floors
and a big sash window. This room also works as a bedroom; it’s a wonderfully
flexible house. Next door is the first bedroom - of over 12 feet each way.
Wooden floors, high skirtings and a sash window bring on the smiles again.
Plus garden vistas.
Travelling down the stairs, between the upper and lower ground floors, you’ll
find the back door to the garden - this is a neat and low - maintenance affair,
with paved and lawned areas and a sturdy shed that’s staying.
The lower ground floor hosts a huge front reception room (it’s over 19 feet by
over 12 feet - with a pale carpet, recessed lighting, a wood - burner, and
access to a good storage vault under the front steps) and a roomy eat - in
kitchen: This is over 12 feet each way, with timeless and plentiful Shaker -
style wall and base units, smart floor tiles and metro - style wall tiles, and a
cute serving hatch (in use as a cookery book shelf).
Up to the first floor and you’ll find two big sash - windowed double bedrooms to
front and rear (these are both over 13 feet by over 12 feet), and the
property’s smart and windowed bathroom. Here you’ll find a free - standing roll -
top bath, over - bath shower, and traditional - style fittings.
What’s about? The immediate nxg area has some excellent fairly new arrivals
including Corner (cafe) and The Old Library (bar and events hub). Long -
standing New Cross joys include The Rosemary (Hungarian food and live music
nights plus pottery courses), The Rose Inn, Smokey Jerk, and Goldsmiths Centre
for Contemporary Art. A couple of small convenience stores are within a few
minutes from your door.
Nip down to neighbouring SE15 for many others - including Peckham Bazaar,
Kudu, Ganapati, Artusi, Peckham Levels, Miss Tapas, The Sourcing Table, Levan,
The Coal Rooms and Mr Bao.
Deptford has a strong gastronomic offering too - with Marcella, The Tapas
Room, Salt (pizzas and craft beer) and The Tea House, and a choice of hip
hangouts in Deptford Market Yard and surrounds. The Dog and Bell pub and
Watergate wine bar are also worthy of a walk. Deptford also has its own
theatre: The Albany, and a modern leisure centre with lane pool.
Local schools include Haberdashers' Hatcham Primary (ages 3 to 11, which feeds
to the local secondary), Kender and Edmund Waller. All are very well - regarded.
Local parks include Telegraph Hill (Upper and Lower, with Saturday Farmers’
Market, or hop on a bus down to Brockley Market) and Fordham Parks. Eckington
Gardens and Bridgehouse Meadows (the former New Cross greyhound and speedway
stadium!) are small local ones.
