1 bed flat for sale

Tarbert Road, East Dulwich SE22

Tidy two bedroom ground floor apartment within a bay-fronted Victorian house, with a great layout and its own private garden. A useful cellar for storage, secure bike storage (out front), and a Google Nest heating system and underfloor heating (in kitchen and living area) complete the offering.

The flat was newly-refurbished by a well-respected local boutique developer for the current owners (when they bought in 2021) and has been well-maintained since then. You needn’t lift a finger. Chain free.

This is a lovely ed back-street, part of a pretty tree-lined network giving you easy access to Lordship Lane (walk three minutes) and to Dulwich Village. Walk just eight minutes to East Dulwich Station, and 11 to North Dulwich Station.

You share a smart hall with the upstairs flat, and you have a bike shed in the front garden. In your own front door and to the front of the property is your principal bedroom (of 12 feet each way) with bay window and custom-made shutters. An opened-up fireplace with surround, alcove storage, and beautiful engineered wood floors further impress.

Next door is your sleek modern internal bathroom. Then you have your second bedroom with custom-made shutters again to your window plus more considered storage, maximising space.

A cool ‘pocket’ door at the foot of your hall reveals your double-aspect open-plan kitchen/reception. Herringbone-pattern engineered wood floors continuing through. This main room is over 19 feet in length, and hosts a beautiful kitchen and a feature fireplace, too. Open a double-glazed door out to the paved area of the garden.

Find your new pleasing pad on a quiet and leafy residential street with permit-parking, close to great cafes, shops, schools, nurseries and parks.

Local Lordship Lane has a fabulous offering of independent businesses, including Chener (books), Mons (cheese), Moxon’s (fish), William Rose (meat), smbs (whole and fresh foods), The edt, Kartuli and The Victory (restaurants). There is a handy run of shops even closer, on East Dulwich Grove.

Just off ll, North Cross Road has a top Saturday market plus little open-all-week boutique shops. East Dulwich Picturehouse is a popular fairly recent addition to the area (those bookable sofa seats are a winner), as are two M&S Food Halls.

Dulwich Village is also a short and pleasant walk for Dulwich Picture Gallery, designed by Regency architect Sir John Soane - and the oldest public art gallery in England (opened to the public in 1817), plus The Crown & Greyhound pub, Gail’s, Pizza Express and Rocco Di Papa.

Popular Peckham is close (walk through Goose Green) for restaurants such as Ganapati, Artusi and The Begging Bowl on Bellenden Road. Rye Lane is also strong for high street shopping, fruit and veg stalls, and summer rooftop bars. Trendy spots include Peckham Levels and The Bussey Building.

For more options, Herne Hill and Camberwell are easily reached.

Green spaces to enjoy locally include Dulwich Park, Goose Green, Peckham Rye Park & Common, and Camberwell's Ruskin Park.
