2 bed flat for sale

Linwood Close, Camberwell SE5

Big, bright and beautifully-appointed two bedroom ground floor apartment of 664 square feet, with double-glazing throughout, its own front door, a Freehold-share, and a designated parking bay. More good news? This is a chain free sale.

Your new handsome home is located within a low-rise purpose-built private development, set in well-established and well-tended communal grounds (in a very cute cul de sac setting off glorious Grove Park/Camberwell Grove Conservation Area); these even boast a generous and mature woodland and communal BBQ area.

Stations? Peckham Rye, Denmark Hill and East Dulwich (all Fare Zone 2) are a 10,11 and 12 minute walk away.

The fab flat has been expertly-refurbished to a really high standard throughout, with a neutral decorative scheme and recessed lighting. You needn't lift a finger once you are in.

In your front door and a double-cupboard is set to your left. This is plumbed for your washing machine (nice touch!). Your hall space is notably generous. This place has a pleasing flow. Next on your left is your sleek shower room, with contemporary sanitary ware and fittings including under-basin drawers.

The bedrooms are up next. Your principal bedroom is over 11 feet by 9 feet. Your second, adjacent, is over 7 feet by nearly 13 feet.

The main event awaits: Your huge reception of 18 feet by over 16 feet, which incorporates your kitchen and dining spaces as well. Timeless wall and base units impress, and integrated appliances are high-end and included in the sale.

What a searing spot! You are near to both Camberwell Grove and Holly Grove Conservation Areas, within prime Camberwell/Peckham Rye borderland - giving you easy access to both town centres and their respective green spaces. East Dulwich is also but a short stroll.

You are supremely well-connected for work, leisure and social pursuits. London Bridge, London Victoria, Clapham Junction, Kings Cross St Pancras and Canary Wharf (via Canada Water) - among other destinations - are all quickly reached.

Bellenden Road is yours by foot in six minutes, with fabulous eateries such as Artusi, The Begging Bowl and Ganapati, and popular independent shops such as Flock & Herd, The General Store and Review. Petitou on Choumert Road is a popular spot for a coffee and people-watching.

Rye Lane offers more high street and market shopping options, plus the trendiest of hangouts - such as Peckham Levels and The Bussey Building. Go vertical in the warm months for rooftop bars here. And Peckham Plex cinema is a local institution. It has recently celebrated its 30 year birthday (tickets for all movies are just £5.99).

Central Camberwell is a 12 minute walk - down beautiful Camberwell Grove - flanked with mature London plane trees and dreamy Georgian houses. Here we love Theo’s, The Kerfield, The Camberwell Arms, Veraison Wines, Little Cellars, Nandine, Falafel and Silk Road especially.

Camberwell leisure centre is also local - with a smart Victorian pool, gym facilities and group classes. Or pop down to Butterfly Tennis Club or Zen Yoga (both even closer, at the foot of Camberwell Grove).

Lettsom Gardens is popular with locals, as is Warwick Gardens. Ruskin, Brunswick, Peckham Rye and Burgess Parks are all fairly close too, plus Lucas Gardens and St. Giles Churchyard (The Crypt under the church hosts cool Friday jazz nights).

A large Sainsbury’s store is close by on Dog Kennel Hill, by Dulwich Hamlet Football Club. And there’s a strong M&S Food Hall by East Dulwich Station.
