Phase Two of the London Overground Line has recently arrived at both stations meaning Shoreditch, Islington and Clapham Junction are all quick and easy.

Enter through a walled front garden. The recessed portico gives way to your inner hallway which has funky cast iron school style radiators and original cornice work. The beautifully aged original timber floorboards are stripped and varnished to perfection. The double reception sits to the left boasting a wide front aspect bay of sash windows. Plantation shutters on upper and lower panes afford privacy. The wood burning stove is framed by a stunning period style marble mantel and sleek black hearth. An elegantly curved wall guides you to the rear of the space where a period feature fireplace and original mantel continue the beguiling. Oblong original wooden shutters precede three steps which lead down to that gloriously bright contemporary kitchen/diner. The space spans the full width of the building and is kept light and airy by a vast skylight. The marble topped island has ample storage and food prep space in addition to seating for up to five adults! There's a swanky mixer tap, bin storage and integrated dishwasher. The far side hosts an integrated microwave and oven, fridge freezer and yet more storage.

Wrapping back round to the hall you find a double laundry cupboard with space for the washing machine. Next to this is access to the lower ground floor storage cellar. Head upward to the wide carpeted first return to find the first of your fine double bedrooms. It faces rear over the garden. A neat family bathroom with period suite and dainty roll top bath completes this level. Upward again to the first floor you meet a front facing master bedroom with that glorious signature triptych of arched sash windows. The room enjoys a period feature fireplace, twin wardrobes and another school house radiator. The third bedroom has a feature fireplace, storage and a peaceful rear aspect. A final climb upward reveals the fourth and final double bedroom, shower room and laundry cupboard.

An attractive street close to Bellenden Road with all its useful shops and restaurants, including the wonderful Ganapati. There is a super bookshop, a good dry-cleaners, funky florists, a top boutique and an art gallery (Moca). The popular Villa pre-prep and nursery is down the road and the Dulwich Foundation schools are a 12-minute drive away. Regular trains from Peckham Rye and Denmark Hill go to Victoria, Blackfriars and London Bridge. Work in the City?
