2 bed flat for sale

Adelaide Avenue, London SE4

A beautifully presented two-bedroom top-floor flat set within a striking period building on one of Brockley Conservation Area's most desirable tree-lined streets.

Occupying the top floor of a handsome Victorian terrace, this flat has generous 2.7m ceilings throughout, giving every room a real sense of light and space. The living room is a genuine highlight, anchored by a lovely fireplace with the look of an original period surround, and filled with the character of the building's Victorian bones.

The kitchen has been recently updated with warm wood worktops and space for a dining table, while the bathroom has been thoughtfully refurbished with underfloor heating. Both bedrooms are well proportioned, with the principal bedroom benefitting from built-in wardrobe and shelving storage. Throughout, the flat is in great condition and ready to move straight into.

Outside, the flat is wrapped in greenery: There's a small park directly opposite, and it sits just around the corner from Hilly Fields, one of south-east London's best-loved green spaces. Spread across almost 19 hectares, Hilly Fields rises to a viewpoint with sweeping outlooks over Lewisham and the City, and its grounds include a stone circle, orchard and woodland, cricket pitch, tennis and basketball courts, a playground, and a popular monthly farmers' market and Saturday parkrun.

The building itself sits within the Brockley Conservation Area, designated in 1973 for its exceptionally well-preserved Victorian and Edwardian streetscape, one of the largest and most intact collections of Victorian housing anywhere in south London, with fine stucco and terracotta detailing and some of the last original kerbstones left in the capital.

Adelaide Avenue is a quiet, leafy residential street, with the shops, cafes and bars of Brockley Cross and Brockley Road a short walk away, and Honor Oak Park and Brockley stations both providing quick links into central London.
