Are you looking for your dream first home? Do you desire a property that is totally unique and iconic? Do you crave space and light and outdoor space?

Then look no further! Located on the third floor of this beautifully restored and adapted Grade II Listed former Victorian hospital, this fabulous one bedroom apartment has it all! Steeped in history and feeling especially spacious, the circular design, large windows and high ceilings of the period, along with the massively deep wrap around south-facing terrace will be the show-stopper home that will have all your friends talking. With over 500 sq. ft. this versatile space has ample room for living, hosting and working from home.

The delightful views over Camberwell to the South from your own private terrace and the height of the flat, give an unrivalled sense of tranquillity and offer a secluded oasis of calm, despite being located in this highly desirable enclave of Camberwell. Peace and quiet is added to by the traffic calming in the surrounding roads. If you fancy flexing your green fingers but don't have time for a garden, the balcony is perfect for pots and you could create a stunning sky garden here. The many large windows, including a striking stained glass piece above the French doors to the terrace, add to the comfort, warmth and brightness, already abundant in this special property. Updated and loved by its current owners, your new home also enjoys the benefits of chic parque floors throughout the living room and bedroom. The original features and joinery are complemented by the contemporary interior design found throughout your home. This secure development has an intercom and a lift. There is also a bike store on the ground floor and off-street parking in a private car park.

Located just off leafy and super-convenient Peckham Road, you won't find a better location to enjoy the delights of Camberwell Green and Peckham Rye. The tranquil oasis of Brunswick Park, with its independent cafe and tennis courts, is just a few moments away. If you like to explore, Ruskin Park with its stunning city skyline, panoramic vistas and Burgess Park and its beautiful walled flower garden, are both just 10 minutes walk. Also nearby are Peckham Rye and Denmark Hill London Overground stations, which give fast and easy access to London Bridge, Victoria, Clapham and the Canary Wharf. There are also many exceptionally fast and reliable bus routes (most of which run 24 hours) that will whisk you from your door step to an array of central London locations in minutes. Many new cycle lanes make access to Central London easy, fast and safer on your bike.

We love Camberwell because of its many delightful parks, impressive architecture and its village feel. Walking from your new home you can grab a coffee and a Danish from trendy Lumberjack (almost opposite) or pop down to cool Crane's Kitchen for a delicious brunch, or try and beat the queues at new hip cafe on the block; Toad Bakery, before taking in the original contemporary art at the South London Gallery. The famous Camberwell College of Arts is also next door and the well equipped pool and leisure centre nearby. Fancy something special? The Camberwell Arms, also 5 minutes walk, offers one of the best Sunday roasts in London and if you want to flex your brain muscles, The Grove House Tavern does a cracking quiz on Tuesday evening. Once to live in Camberwell, you will never want to leave!

This fantastic flat will not be around for long, so early viewing is recommended.
