1 bed maisonette for sale

Oxenford Street, London SE15

Classy, characterful and spacious one bedroom Victorian maisonette with a sunny south-facing garden (with direct access, lighting, power, and fitted seating). Residents have permit-parking.

Our seller has already agreed an onward purchase, so this is a chain-complete scenario.

The location is a popular, oft-requested tree-lined residential street, pleasingly placing you a seven minute walk from East Dulwich Station, and 12 from Peckham Rye Station (both are Fare Zone 2). You are also close to Bellenden Road and to Grove Vale and Lordship Lane.

In your own front door and your delightful reception rests to your right. This is over 12 feet by nearly 11 feet, with stripped floors, picture rail detail, a column radiator, and built-in alcove cupboards and shelves. This room works really well for occasional guests.

Next up is your double bedroom, of nearly 11 feet each way, with more stripped floors, and a charming sash window to garden views. A large to-the-ceiling wardrobe graces one alcove. Your chimney breast has exposed-brick detail (smartly-painted white).

Good storage cupboards are accessed from the hall (under your neighbour’s stairs). Then you have your kitchen/dining room up ahead. This is 12 feet by over 10 feet, with neat and timeless white fitted wall and base units and wooden worktops, plus a custom-made timber window seat that is complete with storage.

A little lobby rests beyond the kitchen (it is here that you access the garden via your back door). Straight ahead is the property’s sash-windowed bathroom. This has traditional-style fittings including the over-bath shower.

Finally, you have an independent (plumbed) utility room, with big built-in cupboards. If you preferred, this room could be repurposed as a small bedroom or study.

Transport is easy with two stations within an easy walk, and great bus connections as well.

You are also mere minutes from some of the most lauded restaurants south of the river! We particularly rate Artusi, The Begging Bowl and Ganapati. 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 and Peckham Levels, all just off Rye Lane).

Independent shopping is easy - on Grove Vale, and East Dulwich’s Lordship Lane (here we 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 butchery, a new 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.
