2 bed Flat For Sale £775,000
This beautiful split-level apartment sits in a converted school building in Peckham. The original proportions of the school are celebrated with soaring ceilings and unique full-height sash windows. Bespoke joinery from master makers, Constructive and Co, and engineered oak floors establish minimalist living spaces with elegant storage. A rich blue kitchen opens to a private terrace with space for a bistro table and chairs. Popular Rye Lane and the rolling green spaces of Peckham Rye are a five-minute walk away as are the independent shops and restaurants of Nunhead Village.
The Tour
A façade of London Stock brick is punctuated by a white front door and full-height sash windows. Entry to the apartment is directly to the open-plan ground floor where the living spaces unfold dramatically towards the kitchen at the rear. Bespoke cabinetry and a sleek Vitsoe shelving unit have been cleverly introduced to demarcate distinct spaces.
To the left, a wall of carefully crafted cabinetry, clad in Valchromat and adorned with solid maple spindles, provides under stair storage and a striking focal with display space, currently home to the TV. These materials are carried into the staircase with its maple balustrade and birch ply stairs lending real definition to the flowing living space.
Towards the rear of the plan lies the kitchen. Beautiful blue cabinets with finger pull drawers are accompanied by a sleek Richlite worktop and shelving, integrated Miele appliances, and a white-tiled splashback. Wenge ply has been used for the high-level cabinets. Opposite the kitchen, the current owners have introduced a built-in, angular chipboard bench-seat that wraps around the corner of the room establishing a large dining area and further storage space within. Throughout the ground floor expert craftsmanship has made these polished interventions look deceptively simple establishing a stylish and highly practical space.
Upstairs, there are two double bedrooms, both en suite. The main bedroom sits at the rear of the plan, where hand-built wardrobes, a custom made walnut headboard, and a fitted bench create a polished finish. Grey painted flooring and woodwork throughout add warmth to the fresh palette. The second bedroom is at the front of the apartment, bathed in natural light care of full-height sash windows. Both en suites have baths and are finished in simple white tiles.
Outdoor Space
The apartment has a private terrace at the rear, accessed from the kitchen. There is space for planters, a bench, and a bistro table and chairs.
The Area
Peckham is an incredibly popular area of south-east London due to its independent restaurants, bars and cafes, including perennial local favourites Forza Win, Levan, Artusi and Kudu. Larger establishments such as Frank’s rooftop bar, Peckham Levels and the Bussey Building attract crowds from across the city.
The popular expanse of Peckham Rye, home to the Sexby Garden, sports pitches, and The Round café, is a short walk away. Also within walking distance is the beautiful Nunhead Cemetery a beautiful woodland oasis, with amazing views across the city skyline.
Peckham Rye is the closest station, running London Overground services to Shoreditch High Street and Dalston Junction in one direction and Clapham Junction in the other. Connections to the Jubilee Line can be reached at Canada Water in 10 minutes and the Northern Line at Clapham High Street in 11 minutes. There are also services to London Bridge in seven minutes and Blackfriars in 11 minutes, and Victoria in 15 minutes.
