2 bed Flat For Sale £520,000
This beautifully bright two-bedroom apartment is located on the first floor of a Victorian townhouse on Dundalk Road, a quiet, tree-lined residential street in Brockley. Its recent renovation couples modern detailing with generous Victorian proportions, high ceilings and large bay windows that invite an excellent quality of natural light. A wealth of restaurants and the green open spaces of Hilly Fields, Brockley & Ladywell Cemetery, Telegraph Hill Park and Peckham Rye Park are all within easy reach. Brockley Overground station is a five-minute walk away.
The Tour
The apartment is accessed through a rose-lined walled courtyard and porchway finished in decorative tiling, which leads through to a well-maintained entrance hall with high ceilings.
A short flight of internal hardwood stairs ascends to the primary living space on one side of the plan; a well-proportioned dining and living room arranged in an open-plan layout. A series of large, shuttered bay windows span one wall, allowing light to filter in throughout the day. Whitewashed pitch pine floorboards run underfoot and a log burner is positioned centrally, flanked by floor-to-ceiling inset bookshelves.
Floorboards continue through to one of the two bedrooms adjacent to the living room, another bright room with a large, south-facing sash window across one wall. The elevated section of the split-level landing cleverly utilises the plan, with a home study area running the length of one wall.
The kitchen is positioned centrally. This cleverly conceived space is divided by a bespoke workstation topped with solid oiled oak, which neatly houses the appliances. A deep-set line of bespoke cabinetry is softly backlit and offers a generous provision of storage.
The second bedroom lies on the opposite side of the plan, where a trio of sash windows invite a southerly light and a full-height wall of cabinetry provides plenty of storage. The modern bathroom sits next to this bedroom and has a shower over the bath and underfloor heating. There are also two large attic spaces, providing further room for storage.
The Area
There are many excellent restaurants, bars and cafes in the area, including Good as Gold, The Tapas Room, Sparrow, Joyce and Artusi’s sister restaurant Marcella. Local favourites also include Parlez, Alkemi and Browns of Brockley. Nearby Brockley Market runs every Saturday and features a wide range of organic traders, food trucks and plant sellers. The green spaces of Hilly Fields are nearby, where there is also a cafe with wonderful, sweeping views of south London. A little further afield is Brockley & Ladywell Cemetery, spanning 37 acres of beautiful green space that is protected within the Brockley conservation area. The Nunhead Gardener is also very close by for plants, gardening supplies and homewares. For more green open space, Telegraph Hill Park is a 15-minute walk away and Peckham Rye Park is 20 minutes on foot. Dundalk Road also sits within the catchment area for a good selection of local schools.
Dundalk Road is in Zone Two and is a five-minute walk from Brockley Station, which runs services to London Bridge in 12 minutes. Frequent Overground services also run from Brockley to connections including Canada Water, Shoreditch and Highbury & Islington. Nunhead station is a 10-minute walk from Dundalk Road with direct trains into Victoria and Blackfriars stations.
