2 bed flat for sale

Gordon Road, Nunhead SE15

Splendid Two Bedroom Parkside Penthouse With Huge Private Terrace - chain free.

This fantastic two bedroom penthouse takes the top spot on a well placed contemporary building overlooking the much-loved Nunhead Green. A substantial sunny terrace is accessible from both the open-plan living area and main bedroom. Accommodation further comprises a second double bedroom and modern bathroom. Twin Juliette balconies each offer views toward Canary Wharf! Location-wise, you are close to three stations: Nunhead offers regular services to Victoria and Blackfriars, Queens Road Peckham will get you into London Bridge in five minutes (and Victoria in slightly longer) while Peckham Rye serves all three London termini. The two latter stations each also enjoy the London Overground line. Nunhead Lane, at the southern end of the road past the green, is a good place for local grocery shopping - it has a wet fish shop, a proper bakery and a greengrocer.

This second floor apartment has been expertly planned out to maximise the living space and outside areas - there is a huge roof terrace which can be access from one of the bedrooms and the reception room. You enter in the centre of the flat, with the master bedroom first on your right. It has a wide bank of windows and a glass sliding door opening onto one of the Juliette balconies from whence you can enjoy views toward the skyscrapers of Canary Wharf. The second bedroom is next, slightly smaller in size, with a door onto the gorgeous roof terrace. You pass the neat bathroom to reach the living area, which has an open-plan layout and access, via further glass sliding doors to that magical terrace.

This property is situated right in the heart of the delightful Nunhead village, with coffee shop, bakery, butcher, fishmonger, green grocer and Co-op moments away. It’s just 10 minutes walk from Nunhead Station and 15 minutes from Queens Road Peckham and Peckham Rye Stations. 'The Old Nun's Head' also sits overlooking the green - a popular 1930s watering hole originally built in the 17th century and rumoured to be the source of the area's name. Other options include Bar D4100 and El Vermut. Peckham, with its array of bars and restaurants - as well as gyms, yoga studios and supermarkets - is nearby. Levan's all day bar and dining space, Larry's and Frank's Café are great spots for a night out! Yummy restaurants include Banh Banh and The Begging Bowl. Our local favourite is Peckham Bazzar - those courgette fritters! Lordship Lane is only 15 minutes walk away, with its boutiques, bars and much celebrated Saturday market on Northcross Road. For green spaces, you have the beautiful, historic Nunhead Cemetery close by as well as the vast Peckham Rye Common and Park.
