House For Sale £750,000
*Virtual Viewing - Be sure to click on the virtual tour/video option for an interactive viewing!*
*Guide Price £750,000* A spacious Victorian 1880s built 3 bed Freehold with lots of potential - similar have sold for £950,000 done up or even split into two flats with a gdv of approx £1.2m! (subject to planning permission)
Owned by Tony & Doreen for the last 40 years, this has been a cherished home for decades and, though could do with modernisation, has been lovingly maintained.
About half of the houses on Nutcroft Road have been converted into flats, so it’s rare to get one of the original terraced houses come to market.
Some on the street have loft extended to get an extra bedroom or make a more spacious top floor flat, and these L shaped Victorian houses offer potential for a roof terrace (subject to planning), instead of the second roof at the rear, and are often extended down the 'side ruturn' - an extension option I would encourage you to explore if you haven't seen it already.
It makes a great family home, even for more mature families, as the three bedrooms are all doubles including one with a dressing area at the rear which could easily be re-modelled to include an upstairs bathroom, especially as water and drainage was once previously there (as highlighted from Tony's, the owner's, description below and drawings - available on request).
For transport, the house is 900m from ‘Queens Road Peckham’ on the same line as Peckham Rye (only a 1300m walk) - offering 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 9 minutes to London Bridge.
Both stations are Zone 2 which means, for those that didn’t know, it is the joint cheapest zone for travel in London (same as Zone 1 - £4.20 per day on an adult annual travelcard).
The location is also great for buses, with 9 options available from as close as Peckham/Queens Road - many going via New Cross, Lewisham, Camberwell for further connections.
Peckham has become a multicultural hip hotspot of London, and has a eclectic mix of amenities to suit - a long list is below for those that aren't familiar.

Here is a little bit from Tony & Doreen (the owners):
According to the Architecture of Peckham Book, Nutcroft Road didn’t exist in 1870, but did by 1890. You can see a lot of the houses still have many of the original external features.
In mid to late 1982, the opportunity came for us to buy this house for £27,000 – which was actually a lot of money at the time!
The sellers were a family of 3 generations living on the 2 main levels. As shown in my drawings, which Matt (the estate agent) can show you on viewing, the ground floor consisted of front and back bedrooms, a kitchen and scullery, with an outside toilet. The mid floor level consisted of a kitchen, toilet, shower, utility – all above the kitchen and scullery below. The main upper floor level consisted of large front room and back bedroom. The house was centrally heated by a 'Servo warm system' (which was commonly used back then) and had Gas & Electric services. There were a large and small water tank in the loft area for the Servo.
We knew there was plenty of work to be done, but with me (Tony) being a builder and stone mason, we knew that it could be carried out over a period of time… with patience.
The prime initial issue was providing damp proofing throughout the ground floor and checking for dry rot to flooring areas - which we had to do straight away.
Further changes we made include:
On the ground floor internal:
1)-moved the front door forward to the face of house.
2)-open planned the 2 receptions into 1 room.
3)-reduced the ceiling height to rooms (for energy efficiency).
4)-reduced the ceiling height to the passage entrance.
5)-made the kitchen & scullery into 1 kitchen area.
6)-extension added for toilet, bathroom and utilities. (1991)
On the upper floor levels:
1)-mid level made into bedroom and box room.
2)-upper levels made into front & back bedrooms.
General:
1)-re-newed windows to all rooms (1992).
2)-combi boiler system (2016).
3)-radiators to all rooms (Late 1990s).
In the loft:
1)-removed the large water tank and small tank.
2)-insulated both loft areas.
3)-boarded the main loft, added a loft entry, light and ladder
External areas:
1)-replaced front of house paved area.
2)-new front of house boundary wall.
3)-back of house paved area.
4)-replaced fence between houses number 34/36
5)-new slate roofs to high & low levels (2017)
6)-new guttering at high & low levels (2017)
We realise much of this work is perhaps now considered outdated, but we have been proud to make 34 Nutcroft truly our own, and now pass the baton on to someone new.
Lots of nice people have come and gone from the Road over the years, leaving us behind and it’s been a lovely street for us to raise our family.
The only reason we’re now selling, is to be closer to all who have now flown the nest a little further out, and as we’re starting to struggle a little with the stairs, we think it’s the sensible thing to do.
We hope you love Nutcroft Road as much as we have over 40 years.
