Local amenities

Camberwell really is a great place to live. It's got a friendly atmosphere and offers a wide range of really nice bars, restaurants, cafes and pubs (including a Jazz Club in the crypt of the local Church!); lots of great local shops -there are delis, great bakers, butchers and grocers - and even a fishmongers -many of which are open late - and a great variety of takeaway places; and all the usual services- banks, Post Office, nhs dentists, doctors etc.

The house is next door to a public leisure centre with swimming pool and gym and Brunswick, Burgess and Ruskin Park are all within less than a 10 min walk, as is the South London Gallery.

There is a supermarket within 2 min walk and there is also a massive 24 hour Sainsbury's at the top of Camberwell Grove c. 10 mins from the house. The town centre of Peckham with its brand new library and gym, massive supermarket and all the usual high street shops is also about 10 mins away by bus or bike.

There are friendly neighbours on all sides.

Because the property is not on a main road and backs onto gardens, there is also a general feeling of having a bit more space and privacy than other nearby houses.

The estate feels safe and we've never had any problems and it's made up of uniform three-level properties, so there are no nasty tower blocks.
Camberwell is an exciting and developing area of South East London, with an excellent selection of independent restaurants, cafes and delis. The presence of the nearby Camberwell Arts College means that the area has traditionally been home to lots of creatives. The studios of Anish Kapoor, recently designed by Caseyfiero Architects, and Raqib Shaw are both in Camberwell. The South London Gallery, designed by 6A Architects is just around the corner, with a new site opening over the road in the old fire station.

Community
