Exceptional architect-designed and owned Victorian home, with a professionally landscaped south-east facing garden. Parking is unrestricted, on the street.
The location is the southerly-side of Queens Road. You are just a five minute walk from Queens Road Peckham Station, for regular and Overground services. Nunhead and Peckham Rye stations are also within a 15 minute walk.
Nunhead Green and Conservation Area - with popular villagey high street area - is a 10 minute stroll, and local schools include John Donne, Edmund Waller and Ivydale primaries.
The smart terrace has been recently and sensitively extended, refurbished and modernised. Treats, wonderful finishes and touches are at every turn! These include a French limestone fireplace to the front reception room, solid oak floors throughout the ground floor, cast iron radiators (while under floor heating features in the kitchen and dining spaces), double-glazed sash windows, original and carefully refurbished doors and joinery plus staircase, and a fully bespoke oak kitchen, complete with Callacata marble slab and zinc worktops.
A neat walled front garden warmly welcomes with a mature Japanese maple tree. In your front door and turn right for your bright through-reception. The front room (with a big bay) is over 12 feet by over 11 feet. The second reception/library is over 11 feet by over 9 feet, with part-glazed French doors to a cute courtyard area. Bespoke fitted joinery/shelving impresses here.
At the end of the hall you have an under stairs cupboard then a handy w.c. to your left (note the bespoke marble floor here) and an independent utility room to your right.
The divine kitchen/dining room is up ahead. It is over 15 feet by over 14 feet. Terrazzo floor in your dining space here and an extremely generous amount of glazing will bring on more smiles. Another set of French doors deliver you to the gorgeous and sunny low-maintenance garden, which is beautifully planted-out and hosts a mature silver birch.
Up to the half-landing and you have a double-aspect double bedroom at the rear of the property, of over 14 feet by over 8 feet. The property's (windowed) bathroom sits next door. Sanitary ware and fittings are high-end and contemporary in style, and you have concealed storage and plumbing.
From the main landing, another double bedroom rests to your left. This one is over 11 feet by over 9 feet. Finally, find your principal and rather luxurious bedroom across the width of the house, with twin sashes. This has custom-made and fitted douglas fir joinery with Callacata marble bedside tables.
Nunhead has your closest high street area. Here we love long-standing staples Ayres bakery and Soper's wet fish shop. El Vermut and Mother Superior are great spots for a nice bottle. And Goodcup/Goodnights (coffee through to cocktails) and BARD4100 (pizza/beer) are popular. Local pubs to you include The Hollydale, The Waverley, and The Earl of Derby.
The QRP area - which is a few minutes from the house - boasts a growing number of eateries, drinkeries and shopping opportunities; such as Kudu's outlets, Peckham Cellars, Beer Rebellion, Blackbird Bakery and Mamma Dough pizzeria.
Walk 10-15 minutes west for Rye Lane, Blenheim Grove and Bellenden Road and more options - including Peckham Levels, The Bussey Building and Peckham Plex cinema.
Heading east, you land in New Cross, for cool pubs plus Goldsmiths CCA contemporary art gallery.
Green space? Telegraph Hill's parks are close (do check out the Farmers' Market on Saturdays at the lower park), plus Peckham Rye Park & Common's 113 acres. Nunhead Green is smaller but most local and has a cute playground. Nunhead Cemetery (one of 'The Magnificent Seven') is great for a walk.
