The home seamlessly blends period features with modern enhancements right from the moment you step inside. As you enter, you'll be greeted by a beautifully restored original front door, complete with mosaic glass. Look down, and you'll notice the charming original tiles that grace the entrance, while looking up reveals the elegant original coving that gracefully runs throughout the entire residence.

Moving forward from the entrance, your first stop is the main reception area, where your attention will be immediately captivated by the 1930s art deco fireplace. This timeless piece of craftsmanship harmonizes perfectly with the brand-new double glazed sash windows that adorn the entirety of the home. To enhance the cozy ambiance of this room, plush new carpets extend seamlessly into the adjacent master bedroom.

Before reaching the master bedroom, a quick glance to your left reveals a convenient guest toilet and a handy storage cupboard. Continuing down the corridor, you'll discover solid oak flooring throughout the rest of the home. The kitchen-diner boasts a well-appointed fitted kitchen sink and ample space for a dining table. Double doors open up to the garden, inviting the outdoors in and creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living spaces.

The main bedroom enjoys a serene view of the garden, providing a peaceful and quiet sanctuary during the night. The bathroom, much like the rest of the home, has been recently renovated to an exceptional standard, offering modern luxury.

Completing the tour are two additional double bedrooms, with the final bedroom which could also double as an extra reception features double doors that open to your very own private oasis garden. This residence perfectly combines historical charm with contemporary comfort, making it a truly unique and inviting place to call home.

The home is accessible to the entirety of Central London by foot (around a 1hr walk to the West End and the City, closer to London Bridge), bicycle (20-30 minutes from all of Central London) and bus (many nearby routes leading north to central London and the City within 30 minutes). If you live here and work in central London, you will never need to get on a packed commuter train or tube again. Although if needs be, you can take the train from nearby Denmark Hill, Oval, Peckham Rye and Elephant and Castle when heading a bit further in all directions. These stations are all within walking distance and, in the case of Oval, Elephant and Castle and Peckham Rye, a very quick bus from stops within a couple of minutes of the home.

Despite its central location, the house is set in a green, low density residential neighbourhood with a strong community feel. It is perfectly located just a short walk from Burgess Park, which at 56 hectares is the largest park in Southwark and was not so long ago subject to a £10m improvement programme, creating one of London's best and most varied green spaces with running tracks, tennis courts, BMX track, a lake, BBQ areas and nature walks. It is also close to delightful Brunswick Park, a local park with a cafe and mini art gallery, tennis courts and a large children's play area. Over on Benhill Road you will find a tranquil nature garden, open to all and tended by volunteers from the community. The neighbourhood has to be one of inner London's most green and you will be constantly pleased by the variety of local green spaces.

Nearby Camberwell is a bustling local centre with a great range of independent restaurants, pubs and shops. It is one of London's best kept secrets, nestling between and rivalling better known centres of Peckham and Brixton without the crowds. Highly rated independent restaurants include Theo's (pizza place), Silk Road (authentic Xi'anese food) and the Camberwell Arms (Bib Gourmand Gastropub). Great independent pubs include Stormbird (craft beers), The Pigeon (craft beers), Hermits Cave (Camra-listed traditional local) and Crooked Well (Gastropub with large outdoor seating area). Camberwell also has a large Morrison's, a Lidl and a Co-op as well as bike shops and other useful retailers.

The award-winning South London Gallery is a short walk away along Peckham Road, next door to Camberwell College of Art/University of the Arts London, which gives the area an authentic artistic buzz. Local artists at Vanguard Walk and Clockwork Studios hold regular open days.

Heading a little further out it's only a 20 minute walk to get to Peckham, where you will find amazing restaurants like Begging Bowl, Ganapati and Pedlar. Elephant and Castle, which is subject to considerable regeneration including a new town centre, is also close by to the north.
