2 bed Flat For Sale £485,000
This light-filled two-bedroom apartment lies on the ground floor of a handsome Victorian terrace on the tree-lined Walerand Road in Lewisham. The current owners have recently renovated the entire apartment to an exacting standard, using a neutral palette to emphasise the amount of natural light that pours through the space. There is a wonderful communal garden at the rear, home to an abundance of mature trees and a built-in brick BBQ, perfect for alfresco dining.
The Tour
The house sits behind a brick wall, behind which are a selection of bushes and leafy trees that provide privacy from the street. A black and white chequered walkway leads up to the house, to a raised ground floor communal entrance.
A central corridor leads to a grand living space at the rear of the plan. This has triple sash windows, double-height ceilings and a recently refurbished wood-burner, nestled within an understated fireplace. A built-in window seat that overlooks the gardens creates an intimate dining area. The natural light that streams in through the glazing illuminates the neutral walls and newly laid timber parquet flooring. On the left is a WC with white hexagonal marbled tiles.
To the right of the plan is an immaculate galley kitchen, with teal wooden panel cabinets, quartz work surfaces and new appliances. Built-in shelves provide ample storage space around the extractor fan, and a large window allows plenty of light in. Leading from the kitchen is a neutral bathroom with a freestanding shower and white subway tiles. There are slate marbled tiles underfoot throughout these spaces.
The bedrooms are positioned at the front of the plan. A large sash window in the main bedroom overlooks the quiet, leafy street beyond and is framed by bespoke white wooden shutters. There is plenty of storage in this room in the form of sleek, white, built-in cupboards. Adjacent is a cosy second bedroom with floor-to-ceiling shelving and a bar area.
Outdoor Space
A communal back door leads to a mature communal garden at the rear of the home; there is a charming patio and seating area positioned under a canopy of trees.
The Area
Walerand Road is only a short walk from Blackheath, one of London’s most popular and attractive green areas, which has a great selection of shopping and dining options. Neighbourhood favourites include The Blackheath Pantry, Gail’s and Buenos Aires Cafe. Nearby Greenwich also has a plethora of independent shops, restaurants, pubs and delis, plus a variety of cinemas and theatres.
The large-scale redevelopment of Lewisham town centre is well underway. The Lewisham Gateway development is introducing new shops, restaurants and cafes as well as homes and public spaces that will benefit the local area, some of which are now open for use. Sparrow, which opened to excellent reviews in 2017, is a local favourite.
Trains run from nearby Lewisham station direct to London Bridge in nine minutes, as well as Charing Cross and Cannon Street. Lewisham (Zone Two) also operates connections to Victoria and the DLR for Canary Wharf and Bank.
