Property description
We've done well finding this one! This lovely three-bed end of terrace sits proudly on a peaceful street and has a distinctive interior; stripped-back, stylised vintage and full of charm. The house offers a large eat in kitchen, a further two receptions, three double bedrooms and a period bathroom. There is also the added bonus of a huge and way-above-head-height cellar offering great storage space, or even the potential to convert into a workshop, utility room or studio space. The house exudes charm with a number of considered design details including Bakelite light switches that add to its character. Talking of which, it has also featured in a variety of film and fashion shoots!
With a small but perfectly formed front garden, you enter through a solid pale blue panelled door into the bright white hallway, with period ceiling cornices and wooden floor boards throughout. To your right is the first reception room with painted floorboards, neutral décor, floating shelves to alcoves and lots of sofa space. Stripped pine double doors lead you through to the second reception (which also has a separate door providing access from the hall). Bright white painted floorboards and similar neutral décor give this room a lovely airy feeling. There are exposed original ceramic tiles to the base of the fireplace. A set of French double doors flood the room with natural light with a ‘glass marbled’ feature and lead out to the garden. This room will easily accommodate a large dining table.
Down the hall and past the entrance to the cellar, you have the kitchen room that has to be one of the highlights of the house. Cleverly mixing stainless steel with wood, it has a very postmodern industrial chic feel. Lighting is exposed with metal conduit trunking running across the ceiling and along the walls. The easy to clean floor is a poured resin. Floor to ceiling white metro tiles line one whole side of the room and each kitchen component is stand-alone cleverly mixing old and new. The wooden units have been lovingly restored after being rescued from a Blackheath mansion. The sink unit is a rare restored wartime Millerdale one with useful storage sections. The cooker is a powerful Baumatic six hob gas burner with double oven which means family roasts are no problem. A large dining table can also be accommodated within the space. There is a pretty side aspect bay window and a glazed back door leading out to the Victorian garden.
The generous sized garden is over 30ft and comes complete with its original outdoor loo (perfect for summer BBQ’s!). As the house is an end of terrace, the garden benefits from sun light for the majority of the day whilst remaining private with its protective walls and wild roses. There is also the bonus of a side gate to the street that allows easy access for bikes and bins.
Upstairs to the rear you have the third double bedroom with stunning garden views. Next-door is the bathroom, set in monochrome with a glorious old fashioned slipper bath and overhead power shower. In the corner there is refurbished decorative cast iron radiator. Up a few steps and you have the second double bedroom with side garden views and a built-in white storage cupboard in one alcove. Ahead is the master bedroom taking the width of the house. It's super large with two windows looking out to the front. All bedrooms have stripped wooden floors to suit the interior of each space. There is access from the landing to a second loft which is a sizeable and ripe for conversion into a fourth bedroom (subject to consents).
This fabulous house is a short stroll from the beautiful village-esque Nunhead Green where you'll find a wonderful wet-fish shop, delicious deli, gastro pub and bakery. Then you have the mouth watering Farmer's Market on Sunday mornings in Peckham's town square, and the award-winning library, multiplex cinema, Pulse Healthy Living Centre - all within 15 minutes walk. In the other direction is Nunhead Nature Reserve and cemetery, good for exercising the dog or just enjoying the greenery and stunning views of St Paul’s. There are extremely good train links; you can choose from Nunhead or Queens Road stations (7 minutes to either one by foot). The journey to London Bridge from Queens Road Peckham station is just six minutes and it of course benefits from being on the ‘Ginger Line’ taking you to Shoreditch in 15 minutes via overground. Nunhead offers a fast train service to Victoria and Blackfriars.
