THE OWNERS SAY

We have loved living here. The flat is bright and spacious, with high ceilings and lots of light. It’s calm and peaceful while still being perfectly located in the heart of East Dulwich.

We’re minutes away from the myriad cafes, shops, restaurants, and the local Picturehouse Cinema. We are also within easy walking distance of the green spaces of Peckham Rye and Dulwich Park.

On a Saturday, we love strolling down the road to the weekly market on North Cross Road. You can get anything and everything, from jerk chicken and popcorn to handmade jewellery and pottery.

BRICKWORKS SAYS

Set within a run of pretty Victorian terraced houses in East Dulwich, this two-bedroom flat spanning two floors provides a beautiful canvas for future owners to put their stamp on. A sizeable front garden and well-kept facade invite you into this graceful home, replete with original features such as sash windows, stripped kitchen floorboards, and an ornate bannister winding all the way up.

The east-facing kitchen catches the bright sun in the morning, making it the perfect spot for morning rituals while overlooking the trees in the gardens behind. The living room, with three large windows, occupies the front of the house and is flooded with natural light. There’s also a double bedroom on this floor and a handy guest cloakroom. A further bedroom, family bathroom and access to huge loft storage can be found on the top floor.

Dulwich is renowned for its college, village vibes and wonderful parks. Lordship Lane, just moments from Crystal Palace Road, is the main drag and offers up a smorgasbord of options. Grab a pint at The Palmerston, proper gelato at Oddono’s, a glass of vino at Drop Dulwich wine bar and try Bon for your morning caffeine hit. And when you want to venture further afield, you are within easy reach of Herne Hill, Peckham, Brixton and Crystal Palace, opening up more possibilities to explore.
