Best and final offers invited by 5pm, Tuesday 18th March.

Ravishing, architecturally-treated three double bedroom apartment with a Freehold-share and a generous low-maintenance garden. Your new pad - which is just shy of 900 square feet - takes the ground floor of a handsome bay-fronted Victorian semi (there is just one flat above you).

This is a delightful tree-lined residential Dulwich street, with little through-traffic (think driving lesson turf), approximately a 10 minute stroll from Lordship Lane and North Cross Road.

You are even closer to Peckham Rye Park and Common’s 113 acres - walk here in five minutes.

East Dulwich Station is a pleasant mile walk or you can take a quick bus trip to Peckham Rye Station. Dulwich Park and Horniman Gardens are also easily reached by foot.

There is a shared smart hall and your own front door is set to your left. Straight ahead on entry is the principal bedroom - of over 16 feet by nearly 12 feet, with a bank of fitted wardrobes and a swanky (windowed) shower room with ceramic Balinese tiles; you’ll find these in the main bathroom too.

Adjacent is a second bedroom, of over 12 feet by over 9 feet, and next door to this is bedroom three: of over 10 feet by 8 feet. These have built-in closets also, and smart double-glazed windows.

The slick hotel-style bathroom is across the hall. Contemporary fixtures and fittings impress.

Finally, land in your huge main room which incorporates seating, dining and kitchen areas. There is a lot to love back here - some of our favourite features are the exposed steelwork, the glass-box window seat, and the Industrial-style doors which deliver you to the garden. Large profile tiles feature inside and out.

Your fitted kitchen is a timeless Shaker-style, in bang-on-trend navy, contrasting beautifully with sleek white worktops. Appliances are pleasingly high-end, and are included in the sale.

Local shops and cafes are local on Forest Hill Road and Barry Road. North Cross Road is a 10 minute walk for awesome Saturday market and open-all-week independent boutique shopping, plus independent cafes and restaurants. Lordship Lane is also a 10 minute walk for more shopping (we rate SMBS Foods, Brothers, The Cheese Block and William Rose particularly highly), plus some trendy chains, East Dulwich Picturehouse, and an M&S Food Hall.

Local pubs include The Herne (great garden!), Watson’s General Telegraph, The Actress and The Great Exhibition.

For more shopping, social and leisure options, Peckham, Dulwich Village, Honor Oak, Nunhead and Forest Hill are all a short distance.

Working off the good life? East Dulwich Leisure Centre is close, and you have lots of yoga studios/classes locally, or ‘sign up’ for British Military Fitness sessions on Peckham Rye. Peckham Rye Park and Dulwich Park also have park runs at 9am each Saturday.
