Property description
Beneath the exposed, vaulted ceilings of this former Victorian workhouse is a spacious two bedroom apartment with two bathrooms and stunning views - see the whole of the City from one side and Crystal Palace from the other. It's a joy on bonfire night! The decor throughout is stylish and slick. The second bedroom enjoys a nifty mezzanine and the living area will host a proper banquet. Here you're perfectly placed for the many attractions of Camberwell and some great transport links. Brunswick Park and its tennis courts is a two minute ramble and Denmark Hill station is reachable on foot in 15 minutes.
The flat is on the fourth floor (top) of this distinctive, partly round building located just behind Havil Street near Southwark Town Hall. There's a video entry phone at the bottom, then take the lift to the third floor and a flight of stairs to the fourth. Your travels are instantly rewarded when you enter the apartment - the hallway curves slightly and the first room off to the right is a double bedroom with views of the Gherkin and the rest of the City skyline. A nifty sleeping mezzanine has been instated meaning you've got lots of space for other endeavours. The lower level can host a lounging arrangement/ study set up. Next door is a bathroom, quite long, with white fittings and two windows. Past a walk-in airing cupboard and several more small windows in the hall (dotted about rather nicely) is that spectacular, reception room with an amazing panoramic view stretching from the West End across to Tower Bridge in the east and beyond. The 'Vert de Terre' walls are courtesy of Farrow Ball - it's yum! There's a comfortable dining area for your gatherings. The dulcet decor is complimented perfectly by dark, vaulted ceiling beams above. The kitchen runs into the far left corner with granite worktops, a contemporary stainless steel sink and drainer, four ring gas hob and oven. The cabinets are retro grey. You find the master bedroom with smart en suite shower room off the hall. The views from the kitchen look towards Battersea while the bedroom vista takes you out southwards, towards Crystal Palace and Sydenham. Storage is not an issue in this flat: there's a vast amount of space in cupboards under the eaves and above the bedroom ceiling (or you could make a third sleeping area up here!).
Here you have easy access to the City and West End from a multitude of buses travelling along Peckham Road. Oval tube (Northern Line zone 2) is a 20 minute walk or 6 minutes on one of the many buses that travel down the Camberwell New Road. Alternatively take a 13 minute stroll up to Denmark Hill station where you can pick up fast, direct and frequent services to Victoria, London Bridge and Blackfriars. The London Overground whizzes you to Clapham Junction, Shoreditch and beyond. The local area is a hub of activity with some excellent specialist shops, the newly reopened Camberwell Baths, St Giles Church and many great restaurants and bars within easy walking distance. Brunswick Park is a minute away for a relaxing Sunday stroll on your way to get breakfast.
