2 bed flat for sale

Ivydale Road, London SE15

A Stylish, Recently Updated Ground Floor Flat With A Sociable Extended Kitchen That Just Keeps Going. With skylights overhead and Crittall doors thrown wide, you can spill out to your private and peaceful garden. Nunhead station is just round the corner, for trains into Victoria in 15 mins.

Picture your morning coffee moving straight from the kitchen island into the garden, with the skylights overhead turning even a grey day bright. This is a superb, stylish kitchen built to spill straight outside at the slightest opportunity.

This ground floor conversion flat is one of the widest on Ivydale Road, and the kitchen is where that extra space really shows. Rebuilt in 2020 alongside the rest of the flat, it's got a bespoke butler sink, built-in double oven, microwave and wine cooler, with plenty of storage worked in around them.

A run of skylights floods the whole open-plan kitchen and living space with light, and the black Crittall doors mean the garden feels like part of the room rather than something you look at from a distance. Underfloor heating runs beneath the kitchen, dining and living space, with traditional radiators through the rest of the flat.

The garden itself backs onto a school car park rather than other houses, so there's a genuine sense of privacy that's hard to come by around here. New paving, built-in planters and plenty of greenery make it feel properly finished rather than a project.

Period charm runs through the rest of the flat too - original fireplaces and classic alcoves sit alongside the thoughtful 2020 updates.

Both bedrooms are finished in a calming sage green. The bay-fronted main bedroom is bright and airy, with panelling that gives it a genuinely luxurious feel.

The second bedroom is flexible - spacious enough for a home office or nursery day to day, with a pull-down Murphy bed that turns it into a proper guest suite whenever you need one. French doors open onto its own private patio, a nice spot for a bistro table and a quiet coffee of your own.

The washing machine lives down in the cellar rather than the kitchen, so it stays out of the way and the kitchen storage stays clear.

Nunhead station is just round the corner - only a four minute walk away, with direct trains to Victoria in 15 minutes and Blackfriars in 16, and there's a bus stop right opposite the flat for the P12 towards Brockley Rise or Surrey Quays.

Brockley station gives you a solid Plan B, with Queens Road Peckham not far beyond that.

The Nunhead Gardener is just three minutes away for the green-fingered, and Nunhead High Street is under ten minutes away . It has properly come into its own, with D4100, Mother Superior, Goodcup and The Pyrotechnic Arms for drinks and The Old Nuns Head as the classic local, plus a butcher, fishmonger and greengrocer giving the whole area a village feel.

Families are well looked after too, with Ivydale and John Stainer primaries and Haberdashers' all close by, and Goslings and Sparkling Minds among the nearby nursery options.

For green space, Telegraph Hill is less than a 10 minute walk away and hosts a lovely Saturday market, with Peckham Rye around fifteen to twenty minutes further on. Parking is free both right outside the flat and across most of Nunhead.

If you’re looking for a stylish, move-in ready flat with a gorgeous, sociable kitchen that opens onto a private garden and a fast commute into town, this one certainly ticks both boxes.
