Best and final offers invited by midday, Wednesday 9th October.

Architecturally-treated Victorian conversion apartment delivering three double bedrooms over two floors/1161 square feet (house-sized!), with a Freehold-share.

A delightful private garden of over 65 feet (with direct access from your main living area) which is sunny throughout the day completes the pleasing package.

The location is a total winner as well: a popular tree-lined residential street which sits at the top of Choumert Road - putting you within a 10 minute walk of both Peckham Rye and East Dulwich stations (both Fare Zone 2). Residents have permit-parking.

There is just one flat above you (which is owner-occupied and was the subject of a recent very high standard renovation also), and you share an entrance hall.

The hall and front garden are both recently freshened-up, and the front garden has a shared lockable bike store.

In your own front door and on this level you have two double bedrooms. The larger of the two (to the front) is over 14 feet by over 12 feet. It has a big bay window (facing west), an opened-up feature fireplace with exposed-brick detail, and custom-made shelves and cupboards to both alcoves. Bedroom two is next door - this is over 12 feet by over 10. Slimline column radiators and wooden floors feature in both of these bedrooms.

Take stairs down and you have a handy (windowed) utility/w.c. to your right, with a pocket door (nice decision), then you land in the impressive and generous main room - which incorporates kitchen, dining and living/seating areas. The room runs over 27 feet by 15 feet! You will fall fast in love with the exposed bricks and steels, the Crittall windows (wall-spanning) onto the garden, and the large roof lights. The fitted kitchen is a timeless Shaker-style with integrated appliances, loads of cupboard storage, and smart quartz worktops.

The sunny garden has neat paved, lawned and shingled areas, and a useful timber shed. It is fairly low-maintenance, with new attractive fencing.

Finally, find your big and beautifully-appointed bathroom (with terrazzo floor tiling, ceramic wall tiling, high-end sanitary ware and fittings, an independent shower plus free-standing bathtub, and a glazed door to a cute courtyard space) and your large third and final bedroom - to the front of the building - this is over 14 feet each way, with lovely engineered oak herringbone flooring, and smart inset shelving.

Set between two Fare Zone 2 stations, you are also well-served by buses into Central London.

You are also mere minutes from some of the most lauded restaurants south of the river! We particularly like Artusi, The Begging Bowl and Ganapati. Other local streets Blenheim Grove, Choumert Road (the lower section) and Rye Lane provide plenty of additional options (and don’t miss The Bussey Building & Copeland Park complex and Peckham Levels, all just off Rye Lane).

Independent shopping is easy - on Grove Vale, and East Dulwich’s Lordship Lane (here we particularly like SMBS Foods, William Rose, Mons, Moxon’s and The Cheese Block), where you'll also find a Picturehouse cinema. Top shops on Bellenden Road include Flock & Herd butchery, The General Store, and Review book store.

For more options, Camberwell, Herne Hill, Brixton and Dulwich Village are all easily reached.

Local green spaces? These include Warwick Gardens, Lettsom Gardens, Goose Green, Peckham Rye Park and Common (Grade II listed and with Green Flag status) and Ruskin Park.

Local primary schools and nurseries include The Belham, The Villa and Bellenden. The Charter School East Dulwich is close for secondary phase.
