Light, Bright and Spacious Two Bedroom Period House with Garden and Basement - CHAIN FREE

This unique two bedroom house, once a Victorian shop, has been deftly redesigned to host a fantastic open plan living space, a separate bright and stylish kitchen, two double bedrooms and a modern bathroom. There is a lovely rear patio garden and an enormous basement with over five feet head height - great for storage. Locally, there is plenty to shout about - the Toad Bakery, Theo’s Pizzeria, Grove Lane Bakery, Brunswick Park Café, the tennis café, and tennis courts in Burgess Park are all within an easy stroll. Orbit Brewery is a 12-minute walk away, and Gladwell’s Deli and Grocery is nearby. Camberwell’s Farmers Market is held every Saturday in Camberwell Green. You're also within easy reach of a Sainsburys for milk and a paper. The wonderfully refurbished Burgess Park is three minutes on foot and Camberwell and Peckham are but a brief ramble. A minute's stroll will bring you to the bus stop that whisks you to Elephant and Castle in under 10 minutes! An exciting concept plan is included detailing a handsome rear extension which would instate a third bedroom - subject to planning permission.

The house enjoys recently updated windows and front door - they ensure a peaceful vibe throughout. Enter off the street into a neat entrance hall with period floorboards and crisp neutral decor. The positively cavernous living space is light and lovely and stretches almost 10 metres. There's louvered blinds, built-in book shelves, fitted storage and a neat curving staircase. The rear of the space enjoys more tasty timber floors, a wood-burner (compliant with stringent clean air laws), storage space and a view of the garden. To the rear of this you find the kitchen enjoying solid wood worktops, a large ceramic sink with mixer tap, contemporary cabinets and a lofty vaulted ceiling with two skylights. French doors run from here onto your cute garden - it's the perfect haven from the bustle of London.

Ascending those lovely solid and stylish curving stairs (with dark treads and white risers) you reach a rectangular landing. The master bedroom fronts the street. with contemporary fitted wardrobes hugging the chimney breast and more pale neutral wall shades. The second bedroom (also a great size) faces rear and is a bright space with more wooden floors. The bathroom sits in between with a clean white suite, heated towel rail and tiling.

The daily commute is easy - grab the 343 bus (to London Bridge) on Wells Way or you can walk past the tennis courts and rose gardens of Burgess Park (which has undergone a £8 million reinvention) in under 10 minutes in order to access any number of buses to the West End and the City (jump off at Elephant & Castle for the Bakerloo and Northern lines). The 136 also goes to Elephant & Castle and connects to the overground line at Queen's Road Peckham and New Cross Gate in the other direction. It's also a 24hour bus! On a sunny day you can walk into Borough or the City - it's that close! Camberwell offers all the bars, restaurants and entertainments you could desire. We love The Crooked Well and the Camberwell Arms for a yummy roast. The South London Gallery is a must see! The varied delights of Bellenden Road are also within easy grasp. Peckham High Street also offers a multitude of treats for the discerning shopper.
