Extended and interior-designed two double bedroom split-level maisonette with its own front door and a sensational south-facing roof terrace.

Find your new abode within a smart Victorian building on the very best of the side streets off East Dulwich’s Lordship Lane.

Walk just 10 minutes to East Dulwich Station (Fare Zone 2). North Cross Road’s Saturday Market is on your doorstep (literally!) and LL boasts best indie groceries, and a multitude of cafes, shops and friendly pubs.

You open into a high-ceilinged hall space (with useful storage). Take the stairs up and you will first find a double bedroom of over 13 feet by 9 feet (custom-made built-in book-shelving here), with a windowed en-suite bathroom with traditional-style fittings.

From the main landing you have a large front reception room (with twin arched sash windows) of over 14 feet by over 12 feet. Your beautiful kitchen rests off this room, with fitted timeless Shaker-style units and a deep Butler sink in front of the window. Open shelving and stone counters further impress.

The second floor delivers a fabulous master suite: a dishy double bedroom of over 11 feet each way, with an en suite dressing room (with built-in closets and drawers)/shower room. Velux windows keep matters bright.

Access your sun-trap roof terrace from the bedroom or from the landing area. It is a brilliant low-maintenance space; perfect for potted gardening, chilling out with a book and a cuppa, or for having friends over for parties.

North Cross Road is a mixed residential/smart-commercial locale (a long-established kids’ hair salon sits under this property), with wonderful offerings: an independent book shop, cute eateries, a florist, a deli, and the regular foodie/creative Saturday market we’ve mentioned.

As well as having NCR and LL on your doorstep, you are within easy walking distance of Peckham’s Bellenden Road and Rye Lane. Goose Green, and Peckham Rye Park and Common are also close.

And East Dulwich leisure centre is nearby - for pool, gym and regular classes. Plus there are two local cinemas to choose from: a Picturehouse one on Lordship Lane, and an independent on Rye Lane (Peckham Plex).

Local pubs include The Palmerston, The Lordship, The Clocktower, The Great Exhibition, The EDT, and The Actress and The Bishop(!).

Grocery shopping? On Lordship Lane we like SMBS, The Cheese Block, Mons and William Rose (the latter gets quite the queue!). There’s an M&S Food Hall also.

If you’re eating out, we recommend locally: Evi's, Monkatsu and Thai Corner Cafe (all on North Cross Road), Banh Banh, The Begging Bowl, Artusi, The Coal Rooms, Peckham Bazaar, Ganapati, Miss Tapas, Mr Bao and Franklins.

For more options, you’re close to Nunhead, Camberwell, Dulwich Village and Herne Hill.
