A charming two-bedroom Victorian flat with a beautiful west-facing garden, a wonderful roof terrace with London skyline views, an original working fireplace, high ceilings and large sunny windows, superbly positioned opposite Camberwell College of Arts, in the heart of Camberwell’s creative quarter.

Having been a much-loved home for almost 20 years, this characterful property offers a rare combination of period charm, generous proportions, excellent natural light and two fantastic outdoor spaces.

The flat retains many of the features that make Victorian properties so desirable, including high ceilings, large sunny windows and beautifully proportioned rooms. The bright and welcoming reception room has a particular sense of character, with its original working fireplace providing a wonderful focal point and adding warmth and history to the space.

The west-facing garden is a real highlight, enjoying afternoon and evening sunshine. Beautifully established, it features a mature cherry tree, creating a lovely green and private retreat. The garden is perfect for relaxing, entertaining or simply enjoying a quiet morning coffee, while a garden shed provides useful additional storage.

The communal roof terrace is an equally special feature, offering a fantastic space for entertaining, summer barbecues and socialising with friends while enjoying views across the London skyline. Filled with pots of flowers and plants, it has been created as a welcoming and colourful outdoor room and is a wonderful place to enjoy long summer evenings, drinks at sunset or dinner under the stars.

Situated opposite Camberwell College of Arts, part of University of the Arts London, the property is at the heart of one of South London’s most creative neighbourhoods. The surrounding streets are home to artists, designers, musicians, independent businesses, galleries, studios and cafés.

The South London Gallery is nearby, offering an internationally recognised programme of contemporary art, while neighbouring Peckham is home to Bold Tendencies, the Bussey Building and Copeland Gallery, creating one of London’s most distinctive creative quarters.

For summer evenings, Frank’s Café at Bold Tendencies is an iconic Peckham destination, with its celebrated rooftop bar and spectacular London views. Peckham Levels provides another creative hub of independent businesses, food, bars, studios and events.

Film lovers have Peckhamplex, the much-loved independent cinema on Rye Lane, while music lovers can enjoy live performances at Jazzlive at the Crypt, beneath St Giles Church on Camberwell Church Street.

Camberwell and Peckham have developed into one of South London’s most exciting destinations for independent restaurants, cafés, pubs and bars. Local favourites include The Camberwell Arms, while the wider Peckham scene offers an ever-growing choice of independent restaurants and bars.

Food lovers can also enjoy Artusi on Bellenden Road, the highly regarded Italian restaurant recognised by the Michelin Guide with a Bib Gourmand for its quality and value.

Despite its creative neighbourhood atmosphere, the property is exceptionally well connected. Peckham Rye and Denmark Hill stations are both within easy reach, providing National Rail and London Overground services, while numerous bus routes run along Peckham Road and connect the area with central London and destinations throughout South London.
