2 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

What a winner! Originally built in the late 1950's and expertly augmented in the ‘noughties’, this award winning two bedder impresses at every step. You may even remember longingly spying on the 13 page spread in the 'Home Building and Renovating' magazine. It topped the Sunday Telegraph 'Best Renovation' short list in 2007! The house extends to include a vast l-shaped living/dining room with a wall of glass leading to a joyous semi decked garden. A more than generous sprinkling of skylights seduces the light inward - it's airy, elegant and moreish. You would know the owners are architects - the decor is sublime. It's contemporary, quirky and bespoke throughout. There's a liberal covering of Hardwood  'Muhuhu' flooring, reclaimed from the Tate and Lyle factory - how sweet! You'll note Bisazza tiling in the bathrooms and African 'Wenge' wood panelled doors too. Both of the bedrooms are en suite doubles and the master room would best be described as a suite. It spans the entire top floor and has an adjoining dressing room. The garden is fittingly fabulous; there's a sun-drenched decked terrace, lawn and water feature. If it's more green you're looking for just skip 30 seconds along the road to Peckham Rye Common and park!  

A jet black facade with funky 'Acid Yellow' windows make a confident first impression. There's off street parking, a large wooden bicycle storage point and some lovely hedging. Steps lead up to the door which has a brushed steel 'Allgood' door handle. Once inside you descend to the living space via a chunky original Victorian step from a house that stood there long ago. The front-facing floor level feature window gives a splash of vibrancy and there are two large skylights running along the left wall. Glass doors to the rear open wide to reveal the garden vista and there's further light flooding down from a third skylight above the seating space. There's a brushed steel gas fire with ceiling height flue, 'Modular' gallery lighting and some lovely recessed art display points. The garden is just gorgeous. Three mature Eucalyptus trees supply an irresistible aroma and some dappled shade. The al fresco dining spot takes the best of the rays. It peers down over the lawn and pond. We're seeing numerous summer gatherings! Back inside you'll find a handy utility room off the living space. It also offers direct access to the garden. The kitchen hosts a healthy array of quality integrated appliances and fittings. There's a dishwasher, fridge freezer, double oven, Franke sink and Siemens five ring gas range. The counters are granite (of course) and you'll never need for natural light with a wide internal window facing the living room and garden - perfect! Beyond this you'll find the first of the double en suite bedrooms. It's a front facing room with a dishy adjoining shower room. The Bisazza tiling and 'Althea' sink make for a timelessly tasteful theme. Slinking up to your first floor master suite you're reminded of the wealth of light. A large skylight encourages sun to brighten your day. Two floating storage points separate the dressing and slumber spaces. It's open enough to feel spacious but closed enough to feel cosy. The adjoining shower room has a wet room style shower and huge skylight.  

A casual eight minute walk will get you to Nunhead station and trains to Victoria and Blackfriars, or walk a little further to Peckham Rye station or Queens Road Peckham, with yet more connections. The London Overground line offers fast, frequent services to Shoreditch, Islington, Clapham and Canary Wharf (via Canada Water).  Nunhead Lane has a proper bakery, greengrocers, wet fish shop and its own little restaurant amongst others all nestled round the lovely village green. Council plans are afoot supported by the local residents group for a regeneration of the lane in the same vain as nearby Bellenden Road. The fabulous Peckham Rye park with its cafe and play area is a stone’s throw away, great fun for the kids all year round, especially during the spring fare. Carry on through the park and within minutes you are closing in on the lovely market street of Northcross Road. The fabulous Nunhead Cemetery is also just a few minutes’ walk for long, relaxing walks and with an utterly fabulous view of St Paul’s. The kids will love the yearly Cemetery Fair and marvel at the perched wild birds and owls that are on show every year. You can enjoy a tipple at any number of cracking nearby watering holes - we love the Clock House, The Rye Hotel and the ever popular Herne Tavern - all within an easy ramble.
