3 bed town house for sale

Halsmere Road, Camberwell, London SE5

Architecture & Interior
Light-filled and meticulously reworked, this entirely remodelled 1970s townhouse was refurbished in 2025. It is a beautifully considered transformation that balances architectural integrity with modern living. On the ground floor, Ketley brick quarry tiles run throughout, introducing warmth and texture, while the plan opens naturally towards the rear, where a contemporary kitchen is framed by full-height Cortizo bifold doors with 45mm glazing. When folded back, they open onto a west-facing walled garden, allowing inside and out to read as one continuous space.

Italian mosaic tiles line the splashback, pairing elegantly with newly fitted cabinetry in a crisp, modern finish. Outside, a curved garden wall lends architectural softness to the plot and offers potential for future gated access.

The main living room looks out over the surrounding gardens of the Minet Conservation Area, with treetop views stretching towards Myatt’s Fields. Generous ribbon windows draw in natural light while preserving a welcome sense of privacy. Set on a quiet no-through road just beyond the conservation boundary, the house feels notably calm despite its central position.

Circulation and storage have been sensitively reconfigured, with stairwells and cupboards reshaped to accommodate an additional bathroom and a dedicated laundry cupboard. On the second floor, one of the bedrooms benefits from a newly constructed walk-in wardrobe, discreetly integrated into the plan so as not to disturb the proportions of the room.

A former garage has been transformed into a fully self-contained, acoustically insulated studio. Designed with flexibility in mind, it includes a separate electric shower, plumbing for a washer–dryer, and a Kandya kitchenette by Frank Guille. An aluminium twin-panel sliding door with laminated, toughened A+ glazing draws in natural light, while new floorboards run throughout. A hydraulic ottoman bed (available by separate negotiation) maximises storage without compromising clear circulation to the WC and shower. Importantly, this reimagined space has been created without any loss of parking, as the property continues to benefit from allocated off-street parking.

Since 2024, the house has undergone a comprehensive programme of upgrades, including new plasterwork throughout, new copper plumbing, radiators and boiler, full insulation, and a newly resurfaced and insulated flat roof. Original floorboards have been finished in a soft whitewash, bringing cohesion and gentle brightness to the interiors. All three bathrooms are fitted with high-quality sanitaryware and brassware (Duravit, Hansgrohe, and Dornbracht) for a refined, contemporary aesthetic. Artemide Dioscuri lamps by Piero De Lucchi form part of the lighting scheme, as do the Charlotte Perriand Applique lamps on the ground floor.

In the Neighbourhood
The house sits in a quiet cul-de-sac bordering the leafy streets of the Minet Conservation Area. The park is known for its gardens, tennis courts, bandstand, playground and splash park, as well as the Mulberry Outdoor Pre-School. The wider area offers a rich blend of culture and community, with The Oval (home to Surrey County Cricket Club), South London Gallery, several ual campuses and King’s College Hospital all within easy reach.

Transport & Connections
Loughborough Junction station is a short walk away, offering direct services into central London. Oval Underground Station and frequent bus routes along Camberwell New Road provide further connections, making commuting straightforward.
