Detailed Description

Character, Space & Skyline Views in the Heart of Dulwich

Once known as Lyncombe and built in 1868, this striking Victorian building was designed by Charles Barry Jr., the architect behind much of Dulwich College. Set in a leafy spot just moments from Dulwich Village, it was converted into four spacious apartments by The Dulwich Estate in the 1950s - and still stands as one of the area's most impressive period conversions.
This particular apartment, spread across the second and third floors, offers around 2,764 sq ft of space - full of original features, natural light, and sweeping views across London from a private roof terrace. There's also access to a shared garden and the huge benefit of a private garage - a rare find in this part of town.
The second floor is centred around a large, south-facing living room with a beautiful bay window and marble fireplace. It's an easy space to relax or entertain in. Off the hallway are three good-sized bedrooms - one currently used as a home office - and a stylish bathroom, plus a separate utility space and an additional shower room.
Upstairs, a spiral staircase leads to the top floor: A bright, open kitchen and living space with doors straight out onto the North facing roof terrace with sun all day (in summer), offering incredible panoramic views across the City and Docklands. This level also includes a cloakroom, a pantry, and plenty of loft/eaves storage, with scope for conversion (subject to the usual permissions).
Set among mature trees and peaceful woodland, the property is a true Dulwich gem - a calm and quiet retreat that still keeps you connected to everything the area has to offer. You're close to Dulwich Village, Herne Hill, and North Dulwich station, and also close to Sydenham Hill and Sydenham railway stations, with great local schools, parks and independent cafés all nearby.
