2 bed Flat For Sale £485,000
This immaculate two-bedroom apartment is positioned on the third floor of Mundania Court, an excellent Art Deco building located in East Dulwich. The entire apartment has been the subject of a considered renovation in recent years, during which the current owners have paired a muted colour palette with warm materials to create a wonderful set of flowing internal spaces. The flats within the building centre around an internal courtyard, home to an abundance of luscious plants.
The Building
Positioned between Mundania Road and Forest Hill Road, Mundania Court is a 1930s Art Deco building with relatively elusive origins. However, the building features many of the distinguishing trademarks of the Art Deco movement with its clean, relative simplicity and horizontal lines, including striking internal communal walkways and steel-framed Crittall windows (many of which have been carefully retained).
The Tour
Entrance is via an internal communal walkway that overlooks an impeccably maintained central courtyard below, filled with tropical plants and mature trees.
The front door opens to a central corridor finished with a warm yet muted palette; new parquet flooring runs underfoot. The adjacent kitchen is beautifully understated, with fully integrated grey ply cabinetry, stone work surfaces and a range cooker by Smeg. On the opposite side of the hallway is a well-lit room, currently configured as a children’s bedroom. Both these rooms lie at the front of the plan and have original Crittall windows, allowing natural light to pour through.
The centrally positioned bathroom is replete with dusty pink tiles by Mandarin Stone, light fittings by Flos, Crosswater brass appliances and underfloor heating. The living area and main bedroom lie at the rear of the plan, both with far-reaching views across the verdant treetops beyond. The bedroom has plenty of built-in storage concealed behind stone-coloured linen curtains.
The recent refurbishment included rewiring, replastering, new plumbing and the introduction of a new central heating system with wrought-iron-style radiators.
The Area
Mundania Court is perfectly positioned for the broad selection of cafes, bars and restaurants in East Dulwich, Peckham and Honor Oak. Slightly further afield is Lordship Lane, home to a vast number of independent shops including Mons Cheesemongers, Moxon’s Fishmongers, Terroirs wine bar, Bon cafe and a wonderful deli, Jones of Brockley. The Horniman Museum and Gardens is located further to the south, with a child-friendly cafe, anthropological museum and farmers’ market every Saturday morning.
The green spaces of Peckham Rye Park, Camberwell Cemetery and Dulwich Park are within easy reach, and nearby Dulwich Leisure Centre has a public swimming pool and gym.
The closest Overground station is Honor Oak Park, which runs direct service to Highbury & Islington. There are plenty of excellent bus routes in the area.
