We’ve lived at Recreation Road for well over twenty years and have loved seeing the area evolve and change. The flat itself is unexpectedly and deceptively large, offering spacious rooms and brilliant storage capacity which we have most definitely made good use of. We’re on a tiny ‘no-through’ road leading directly to the gorgeous Mayow Park with café, outdoor gym, tennis courts, cricket nets, croquet lawn, children’s play areas and brilliant tracks you can run around, it’s a big draw, along with other nearby outdoor spaces; Crystal Palace Park, Beckenham Place Park and the gardens at the Horniman Museum – where we got married. The local independent shops, pubs and restaurants on the high street are a stone’s throw away – top favourites include Blackbird Bakery, The Dolphin and Gurkhas.

A change in circumstances means it’s now time for us to move on but we will truly miss living in this cool pocket of South East London.
