2 bed flat for sale

Linwood Close, Camberwell SE5

Big and bright second floor apartment of 752 square feet, with two bedrooms, a Freehold-share, and a designated parking bay.

Delivered over one floor with a great layout, your new home is located in a notably leafy spot within a low-rise purpose-built private development, set in well-established and well-tended communal grounds (in a cute cul de sac setting off glorious Grove Park) - these even boast a mature woodland and communal BBQ area!

Stations? Peckham Rye and Denmark Hill (both Fare Zone 2) are your closest. Walk just 10 and 12 minutes to these, for both regular and Windrush line services.

There is secure entry via a main front door on the ground floor (communal areas are smart and regularly cleaned and maintained). Take the stairs and you’ll find your own front door on the second floor.

A large windowed hall welcomes you. Take a right for your double-aspect, splendid main room - incorporating seating, dining and kitchen spaces - of over 20 feet by over 17 feet. Modern matte dark grey units (inclusive of a central island) are paired with smart white stone counters. Appliances are integrated and included in the sale.

Left of the front door are your two bedrooms side by side. These are over 13 feet by nearly 8 feet, and over 13 feet by over 9 feet. Like your reception room, both bedrooms have a southeasterly orientation (= great light, all day!).

A hall cupboard is great for coats and cleaning stuff, and next door is the property’s pretty bathroom - with gorgeous green glazed ceramic Balinese wall tiles, an over-bath shower, and modern white sanitaryware and fittings.

Oh what a super spot! You are near to both Camberwell Grove and Holly Grove Conservation Areas, within prime Camberwell/Peckham Rye borderland - giving you easy access to both town centres and their respective green spaces. East Dulwich is also just a short stroll.

You are hugely well-connected for work, leisure and social pursuits. London Bridge, London Victoria, Clapham Junction, Kings Cross St Pancras and Canary Wharf (via Canada Water) - among other destinations - are all quickly reached.

Bellenden Road is yours by foot in six minutes, with lauded eateries such as Artusi, The Begging Bowl and Ganapati, and popular independent shops such as Flock & Herd, The General Store, The Sourcing Table and Review. Petitou on Choumert Road is a popular spot for a coffee and a people-watch.

Rye Lane offers more high street and market shopping options, plus the trendiest of hangouts - such as Peckham Levels and The Bussey Building. Go vertical in the warm months for rooftop bars here. And Peckham Plex cinema is a local institution (tickets for all movies are just £5.99).

Central Camberwell is a 12 minute walk - down beautiful Camberwell Grove - flanked with mature London plane trees and dreamy Georgian houses. Here we love Theo’s, The Kerfield, The Camberwell Arms, Veraison Wines, Little Cellars, Nandine, Falafel and Silk Road especially.

Camberwell leisure centre is also local - with a Victorian pool, gym facilities and group classes. Or pop down to Butterfly Tennis Club or Zen Yoga (both even closer, at the foot of Camberwell Grove).

Lettsom Gardens is popular with locals, as is Warwick Gardens. Ruskin, Brunswick, Peckham Rye and Burgess Parks are all fairly close too, plus Lucas Gardens and St. Giles Churchyard (The Crypt under the church hosts cool Friday jazz nights).

A large Sainsbury’s store is close by on Dog Kennel Hill, by Dulwich Hamlet Football Club. And there’s a strong M&S Food Hall by East Dulwich Station.
