Blenheim Grove, Peckham Rye

£499,950

Chain-free two bedroom modern-build apartment on the ground floor of a detached block of just six similarly-sized properties. A courtyard-style garden and an allocated parking space (soon to have an EV charge point) complete matters. Leasehold.

The flat is a good size (617 square feet) with double-glazed windows, a strong layout, good natural light, and lots of built-in storage.

The location is fab, too - you are just a few minutes by foot from Peckham Rye Station, Bellenden Road, Warwick Gardens, Holly Grove Shrubbery and Rye Lane. This is one of Peckham Rye's most highly favoured streets.

Once in the flat, you’ll find your windowed bathroom on your right. This has a simple white modern suite and square white wall tiling.

The largest of your bedrooms is straight ahead (of 11 feet by over 9 feet). Your second bedroom, next door, is over 12 feet by nearly 7 feet. Both have a sunny south-easterly aspect. Opposite the door to the second bedroom you have two huge storage closets.

Next up, you open into a large and bright reception room, with your independent kitchen accessed via a door to your left. Open a back door from your reception to the low-maintenance long tiled courtyard. A back gate/access concludes the tour.

This is an enviable London address that’ll have you wanting or for very little; Peckham Rye station is a brief stroll for regular and Overground services and an easy commute to the City, West End and Canary Wharf.

Bellenden Road and the surrounding streets are a gastronomic destination: we particularly like The Begging Bowl, Artusi and Ganapati.

For an artisan loaf, croissant or coffee, you can simply nip out to The General Store. Other local independent shops worth a mention are Review book store, Flock & Herd butchery and Melange (chocolate!).

If you’re hip enough, go vertical for Peckham’s rooftop bar scene. And your local ground level pubs include The Victoria Inn, The Montpelier and The Prince Albert.

Peckham's already on the map, but there's even more to come! Including the regeneration of and around Peckham Rye Station.
