*guide price £300,000-£325,000* A great opportunity to purchase a flawless one bedroom, ground floor apartment just 1km from Peckham Rye Station.
Forming part of Kelly Avenue, a modern yet stately development built in 2002, this gorgeous apartment isn’t just close to Peckham Rye Station (12 mins walk according to Google) but also within walking distance of South London Gallery (400m), Rye Lane (450m), Bellenden Road (750m), King’s College Hospital (1.7km) and much, much more.
Location, location, location really is the choice phrase but, to spare boring those that know, a more complete list of the amazing local amenities is listed below.
This is one of few apartments in the development with its own private entrance, which is a big plus to avoid sharing a communal area, and it therefore also features its own little patch of front garden which has the potential to be a colourfully planted first impression.
The layout inside is open plan initially, with the bedroom separated by a large modern bathroom. The bedroom comfortably fits a king size bed and (as shown on the floorplan) the wardrobe storage is deceptively larger than originally apparent.
The existing owners moved in September 2017 and immediately got to work replacing the boiler in December 2017 which needed to be improved. The kitchen was installed in 2019 (with new appliances) and the bathroom has only just been replaced in January of this year – so there is fortunately nothing immediate to do.
The made to measure ‘plantation’ shutters front and back will naturally stay and are certainly a big plus compared to other properties without.
For transport, Peckham Rye offers quick links into all sides of the city (Victoria, Blackfriars, St Pancras, Farringdon, Clapham Junction and Canada Water to name a few – and impressively is just 10 minutes to London Bridge.
Peckham Rye is Zone 2 which means, for those that didn’t know, it is the joint cheapest zone for travel in London (as Zone 2 is the same price as Zone 1).
The location is also a bus connoisseurs paradise, with 11 options available from as close as Peckham Road which, on the most part, make their way up Rye Lane or head towards the city via Camberwell. The owners frequently entertain in Camberwell as it only takes them 15mins to walk.
Being so convenient, Kelly Avenue is pedestrian only at the junction of Peckham Road, to prevent any noisy cars or buses using it as a rat run.
For cyclists, there is secure bike storage behind the development parking gates and the City is approximately 25 minutes away, with much of the journey by dedicated cycle paths, parks and quiet cycle routes.
Despite our best efforts, the pictures really don’t do this perfect apartment justice… so come and see for yourself!
