2 bed flat for sale

Talfourd Road, Peckham Rye SE15

Beautiful two bed, two bath Victorian conversion apartment delivered over the upper floors (first and second) of a handsome townhouse on a best tree-lined street on the Peckham/Camberwell border.

More brilliant information is that the property has a Freehold-share, a part-walled private garden (accessed via stairs from the flat), and chain-free status.

Your new home is on one of Peckham Rye’s finest ‘Lyndhurst toast rack’ streets. There is permit-parking on-street for residents, and a large bike hangar is handily close.

Walk to Peckham Rye Station in just 12 minutes, and to Denmark Hill Station in 15. Both are on the Overground network.

You are also really close to Bellenden Road and Rye Lane, The Villa Nursery and Pre-Preparatory School (2-7), and to central Camberwell.

Your first floor hosts a delightful sash-windowed bathroom (with modern fittings and sanitaryware, including a free-standing bath tub) and your huge main room across the width of the building (over 18 feet) which incorporates reception, dining and kitchen areas. High ceilings and herringbone floors bring on happy nodding. Your fitted kitchen is really smart, with some open shelving alongside multiple wall and base cupboards, and integrated appliances (which are included in the sale).

Up the stairs to the second floor and you have a comfortable double bedroom to the rear of the building. This is over 11 feet by over 10 feet, and has a sash window to leafy vistas.

Then your principal twin-sashed bedroom rests to the front of the flat. It is over 16 feet by over 9 feet, with a big bank of floor-to-ceiling closets. To one corner you access your en suite shower room.

Two Fare Zone 2 stations are easily reached. It is a super spot for bus travel, too - with day and night routes just minutes away on Peckham Road. While we’re there… we should mention South London Gallery, Mondo Sando and toad bakery.

Local green spaces include Warwick, Lucas and Lettsom Gardens, Peckham Rye Park and Common, and Brunswick and Ruskin Parks.

Local eating and drinking establishments we would cheerily point you in the direction of include Little Cellars, Silk Road, Theo's, The Camberwell Arms, Nandine, and The Kerfield Arms (all SE5) and The Montpelier, Ganapati, Artusi, Pizza Nerds, The Begging Bowl, Miss Tapas, Hausu, Levan, Il Giardino and Mr Bao (all SE15).

Local cafes of note include Lumberjack, Bara and Petitou. For luxury groceries or a nice bottle, we like Gladwell’s, Veraison Wines, The Sourcing Table and The General Store.

When the weather is warm and the days are long, Rye Lane’s rooftop bars are the go-to destination for cocktails and people-watching. Rye Lane is also where you will find Peckham Plex Cinema (£5.99 films), Peckham Levels, The Bussey Building and Copeland Park, plus handy high street shops, banks, markets, boutique gyms, and good street food.

Peckham and Camberwell both have good leisure centres with lane pools, and The Butterfly Tennis Club and Zen Yoga Studio are also local, at the bottom of beautiful Camberwell Grove.
