4 bed semi-detached house for sale

Pelham Close, Camberwell SE5

Cash buyers only


Big and bright extended four bedroom semi-detached house of 1419 square feet, with both bath and shower rooms and a utility room, in a tucked-away cul de sac position off glorious Grove Park, and within the leafy des-res bounds of Camberwell Grove Conservation Area. Denmark Hill and Peckham Rye stations are reached by foot in 11 and 13 minutes respectively.

The property occupies an enviable and sizeable plot with well-stocked front and rear gardens which get loads of sun. Off-street parking and an internal garage complete the offering.

In your front door and you land in a well-lit hall with a downstairs shower room (which doubles as your guest loo). Turn right for your front formal herringbone-parquet-floored reception room, of over 13 feet by over 12 feet. Crisp white walls let the light dance around. You connect here with your dining area, of over 10 feet by nearly 10 feet, with sliding doors onto a decked area before your lawn.

Your kitchen rests off the dining area, with breakfast bar a gentle divide, and glossy modern white units partnered with wooden worktops. Glazed French doors offer a second access point to the back garden.

A plumbed utility room is set off the kitchen, and beyond this you have your internal access to your garage.

Your first floor is a notably light affair, with windows to three external walls. Set to the back of the house you have the property's main and modern windowed bathroom with cool green tiles, and two bedrooms either side of this, onto garden views. One is 13 feet by 10 feet with a built-in wardrobe. The other is over 12 feet by 9 feet with a bank of closets and a fab corner window giving you a double-aspect.

To the front of the house is another double bedroom of 12 feet by over 11 feet (again with custom-wardrobes) then an open-plan space incorporating landing space - which works as a relaxed bedroom, additional reception, or luxury work from home office/studio.

What an excellent position to call home! Bellenden Road is a 10 minute stroll away, and central Camberwell a similar distance, down gorgeous Camberwell Grove.

Peckham Rye and Denmark Hill stations (both Zone 2) are both local with regular and Overground services. London Bridge, London Victoria, Clapham Junction, Kings Cross St Pancras and Canary Wharf (via Canada Water), among other destinations, are all quickly reached.

A large Sainsbury’s store is close by on Dog Kennel Hill, by Dulwich Hamlet fc, and there’s also a M&S nearby on Grove Vale by East Dulwich Station (also Zone 2).

Lettsom Gardens is popular with locals. A nominal yearly membership will secure you a key. For further green space, local parks include Ruskin Park - with bandstand events in the summer, Warwick Gardens, Peckham Rye Park and Common and Dulwich Park.

Central Peckham is a gastronomic mecca. Check out Bellenden Road, Choumert Road, Rye Lane and Blenheim Grove for some top restaurants, bars and cafes (Artusi, Levan, Hausu, The Begging Bowl and Ganapati to name a few). Rye Lane gives you Peckham Levels and Bold Tendencies, and Frank's Bar and The Bussey Building's rooftop bars in the warmer months, plus Peckham Plex Cinema (films for £5.99).

South London Gallery is close as well, and Camberwell leisure centre has good classes and gym and swim facilities in a pretty Victorian setting. Toad bakery and Gladwell’s in Camberwell are great spots for luxury loaves, pastries and groceries (the latter has a Turner & George meat counter).

Local recommended places to eat and drink in SE5 include The Kerfield Arms (newly-Michelin-starred), Theo's, The Camberwell Arms, The Bear, Silk Road, Veraison Wines, Nandine and The Hermits Cave.

Little ones/thinking of? The Villa Nursery and Pre-Preparatory School is close (2-7). As are Lyndhurst, Dog Kennel Hill and The Belham primary schools. The Dulwich independent schools are also but a short drive.
