5 bed terraced house for sale

Choumert Road, Peckham Rye SE15

Chain free buyers only.

Big, bright and beautiful Peckham Rye terrace at the top of a top always-requested street, mere minutes from Bellenden Road (three!) and Peckham Rye Station (eight). Both links are Zone 2 and Peckham Rye is on the Overground network/Windrush line. Permit-parking is on-street.

Beyond popular ‘Posh Peckham’, you are also close to the centres of East Dulwich and Camberwell. East Dulwich Station is at your feet in 10 minutes, and Denmark Hill Station is yours in 15.

The handsome house - delivered over three floors and over 2000 square feet (inclusive of the basement space) - hosts five double bedrooms, two bathrooms (one is en suite to the large top master bedroom), and two independent lavatories. You also have two formal reception rooms, and a double-aspect extended kitchen/reception room onto the mature and sunny south-facing garden - which extends over 40 feet. A cellar and accessible eaves storage complete the package.

Open into the welcoming and high-ceilinged hall and your two formal reception rooms rest to your left. Attractive herringbone flooring impresses. Your front room is over 12 feet by nearly 14 feet, with big bay window and a central period fireplace. Your rear reception - a natural dining room - has a sash window onto the side-return area of the garden.

At the end of the hall is a handy windowed w.c. To your left. Access to the useful cellar is to your right. Straight ahead and you land in your delightful extended kitchen/reception, with integrated appliances and fitted handmade kitchen units (by the company who fitted out Forza on Rye Lane).

Your garden is mature, well-stocked, super private, and gets fabulous sun (neighbours have fully exploited this favourable orientation by adding a roof terrace - a future plan perhaps?).

Up to the half-landing and you have the first of your double bedrooms (this is over 12 feet by over 9 feet) and another w.c. Next door.

From the main landing, your principal bedroom rests across the front of the house. It is over 16 feet by over 14 feet, with another big bay window and bespoke closets to both alcoves. Next door is another double bedroom - of over 11 feet by over 10 feet. There is a custom-made wardrobe to one alcove, and shelving and cupboard to the other. A pretty fireplace is between these.

Up again and you have bedroom four at the back of the house (this is over 9 feet each way), and the property’s main bathroom next door.

Then at the top of the house, find your large master suite - of over 18 feet by over 10 feet, with a modern en suite shower room with big Velux window. There is excellent accessible eaves storage up here.

Set between two Fare Zone 2 stations, you are also well-served by buses into Central London.

You are also mere minutes from some of the most and quite-rightly lauded restaurants south of the river! We particularly like Artusi, The Begging Bowl and Ganapati. For drinks, The Sourcing Table and The Victoria Inn are both very local and popular.

Other local streets Blenheim Grove, Choumert Road (the lower section) and Rye Lane provide plenty of additional options (and don’t miss The Bussey Building & Copeland Park complex, Peckham Levels, and Peckham Plex Cinema - all just off Rye Lane).

Independent shopping is easy - on Grove Vale, and East Dulwich’s Lordship Lane (on the latter we particularly like smbs Foods, William Rose, Mons, Moxon’s and The Cheese Block), where you'll also find a Picturehouse cinema.

Top shops on Bellenden Road include Flock & Herd (butcher), Life of Fish (fishmonger), The General Store, and Review book store.

For more options, Camberwell, Herne Hill, Brixton and Dulwich Village are all easily reached.

Local green spaces? These include Warwick Gardens, Lettsom Gardens, Goose Green, Peckham Rye Park and Common (Grade II listed and with Green Flag status) and Ruskin Park.

Local primary schools and nurseries include The Belham, The Villa and Bellenden. The Charter School East Dulwich is also close for secondary phase.
