About this property
This elegant one-bedroom apartment in Camberwell has been beautifully designed by its current owners in tandem with Lord Architecture. Full-length glazing amplifies natural light in the kitchen and dining area, and interiors are washed in a soothing neutral palette. To the rear, a private patio garden is a calm retreat filled with flourishing plants including fig, lemon and olive trees. Peckham Rye, Telegraph Hill and Goose Green are all close by, and East Dulwich station – an eight-minute walk away – provides Overground services to London Bridge.
The Tour
This apartment occupies the first floor of a pretty terraced house on Ivanhoe Road, a quiet residential street in Camberwell. The façade is washed in an elegant olive-green tone, and a smart wood-panelled door with fanlight forms the shared entrance to the building.
Entry to the apartment is to a bright reception room with soaring ceilings, elegant cornicing and a tiled alcove where a fireplace would have once stood. Here and throughout the space, walls are washed in a neutral colour palette, and polished concrete flooring has underfloor heating.
A single step leads to the kitchen and dining area at the rear, masterfully designed with full-length glass ceiling and wall panels to seamlessly meld indoor and outdoor living. An electronic skylight further amplifies natural light and provides excellent air circulation, and a wide glass door pivots to open onto the peaceful patio garden beyond. Sleek white cabinetry with marble splashback and exposed timber shelving completes the ensemble. There is an oven, induction hob and space for a full fridge-freezer.
A light-filled bedroom sits to the front of the plan, and is accessed via a set of period wooden doors from the reception room. Two full height wardrobes provide ample storage space, sisal flooring runs underfoot, and a shuttered sash window lets in plenty of light.
An elegant bathroom sits adjacent to the reception room, with glazed tiles by Bert and May, a walk-in shower, a freestanding bathtub, and a marble sink with brass fittings.
Outdoor Space
A tranquil private patio garden is nestled at the rear of the apartment. Smart terracotta tiles by Bert and May run underfoot, and a section of wall is tiled to match the alcove in the reception room. The space has a wonderfully Mediterranean feel and provides a sense of escape from the city beyond. A raised bed is home to pretty olive trees, star jasmine and climbing wisteria.
The Area
The apartment is perfectly positioned for Lettsom Gardens, a beautiful private green space with woodland, sports facilities and allotments. It serves as a hub for the local community and a wonderful picnic spot in the warmer months.
The cafés, shops and restaurants of Peckham and Lordship Lane are all a short walk away. General Store is a neighbourhood grocery store and coffee shop, offering the finest seasonal produce, including Neal’s Yard cheese and a selection of natural wines. Excellent neighbourhood restaurants include Levan, Artusi and The Begging Bowl. Review Bookshop is a fantastic local independent bookshop, and Flock and Herd is an excellent local butcher's shop.
Hannah Barry Gallery is close by, while Dulwich Picture House is marginally further afield. The Bussey Building, off Rye Lane, hosts an active and varied programme of yoga/dance classes and workshops.
The green spaces of Peckham Rye, Telegraph Hill and Goose Green are conveniently nearby for runners, amblers and dog walkers alike. Nunhead Cemetery - one of London's 'Magnificent Seven' - is a beautiful woodland oasis within walking distance of the apartment.
Camberwell is well-served by a number of excellent pubs, including The Peckham Pelican, The Sun with its large, south-facing beer garden, and The Joiner’s Arms, which runs a much-loved local open mic night. Verasion Wines and Stormbird offer an alternative focus on natural wines and craft beers respectively.
Denmark Hill station is a short walk away, running direct rail services to Victoria, Blackfriars and St Pancras International, and Overground services to Clapham Junction or Dalston Junction via Canada Water (Jubilee line). East Dulwich station is also nearby and runs services to London Bridge in around 13 minutes. Camberwell is also uncommonly well served by at least 10 bus routes.
