Ommaney Road, New Cross SE14

Large and lovely four bed, two bath conversion apartment within a Telegraph Hill Conservation Area townhouse, on a quiet and residential tree-lined street. Over two floors and with two entrances (at both lower and raised ground floor levels), you have 1331 square feet to enjoy, original features, including four bay windows, and a extra-wide private garden that is solely demised to the property.

This location puts you winning-at-life close to Telegraph Hill’s pretty parks, and you are an easy seven minute stroll to New Cross Gate Station (or walk 14 to Nunhead Station). Bus travel is easy too, from nearby New Cross Road.

Local schools include Haberdashers' Hatcham College (covering 3-18) and Edmund Waller (3-11). There are also several popular very local nurseries.

Entering at raised ground level, you share an entrance hall with just the one apartment above yours. Your own front door is to your left. From here take the door straight ahead for your big and bright front reception room. Find stripped floors, high ceilings, beautiful coving, and built-in shelving.

There is a handy hall cupboard for coats and stuff. Your first double bedroom is next along the hall. This one is 11 feet by over 8 feet, with a neat basin to one corner. A modern bathroom with separate loo is next to impress. Both are windowed. Then you have a big double bedroom to the back of the property. This is over 14 feet by nearly 11 feet, with bay window to garden vistas.

Downstairs, a sizeable kitchen/diner running 19 feet is your main gateway to the garden, via timber-framed French doors (the fitted units are modern and smart). This is a natural hosting space and has hard and lawned areas plus a substantial shed.

A downstairs guest w.c. And contemporary shower room next feature. Then you have two further double bedrooms. The first is over 13 feet by nearly 11 feet, with French doors delivering you to the side-return area of the garden. Your final one is over 13 feet each way, with your second front door (set to one bit of the bay).

This leafy, hillside residential area (once the home of Victorian poet Robert Browning) was developed in the late C19th. It replaced market gardens (owned by the Worshipful Company of Haberdashers, who controlled the development) with high-standard housing, on broad and verdant streets.

Here you can enjoy the fab connectivity of Fare Zone 2, with great views, lovely parks, a great community spirit, and a weekly Saturday market (held in the lower park).

The Hill Station community cafe and pizza place (just next to the church) is very popular with locals and visitors alike. A large Sainsbury's store sits behind nxg station for groceries, and there are cool independent shops, cafes and restaurants on both New Cross Road, Brockley Road and Queens Road, alongside popular pubs.

Locally, we particularly rate Corner (cafe), The Rose Inn, The Old Library Bar, Peckham Cellars, Beer Rebellion, Blackbird Bakery and Eagle Eats. The Earl of Derby and Skehan's are top local public houses (the latter has regular live music).
