Queens Road station is a 10 minute walk for regular swift services to London Bridge in around 7 minutes. Alternatively, Peckham Rye station is a 15 minute walk for the Victoria and Blackfriars/City options too. Both stations enjoy the hugely popular London Overground Line. From the Old Kent Road, pick up any number of buses to various London destinations, including a 5 minute journey to the newly vamped up Elephant & Castle and a soon to be much anticipated Bakerloo underground line, extended to the end of Commercial Way Burgess Park with its lakes, hills, old Victorian buildings and tennis club is one of the most impressive Urban parks in South London just a 10 minute stroll away along the old canal pathway from the home.

A handsome exterior invites you off the street to a recessed portico entrance. The inner hall has original floorboards, high ceilings and some original corbels. Nip left to find a long double reception boasting two lovely period feature fireplaces, each with marble mantels, and a wide front aspect bay window. A large contemporary picture window opens to the rear offering a glimpse of your super rear extension. Accessed from the rear of the hall you next meet that full-width kitchen/diner which is bathed in natural light from above. A large central island supplies unbeatable dicing and slicing space and a long breakfast bar. There is further lavish dining space to the left. On the opposite side of the space you find a host of modern appliances, including a fantastic gas range. Wide bi-fold doors open to the rear to your pretty patio garden - the perfect spot for guests come summer. A handy guest wc and further storage complete the ground floor. Heading upward to the first return you meet your first bedroom, a rear-facing double with neutral decor and garden views. A family shower room sits next door. Upward to the first floor you find a wide and wonderful double bedroom stretching into full width. Bespoke fitted storage sit either side of the chimney breast. Bedroom three, another confident double faces rear with more fitted storage and a peaceful aspect. The second return hosts a most attractive fourth bedroom. Currently arranged as a large office, the space positively sparkles with daylight owing to a full length raised feature window. Glass doors to the rear open to that terrace from whence you can enjoy views of the Shard. A deep recessed storage space off the bedroom supplies yet more storage. The final climb rewards you with a terrific top floor master bedroom with recessed loft storage and more lofty views. The tour is completed nicely with a bright and bold shower room. In addition to London Bridge services, Queens Road also benefits from the London Overground Line with services to Clapham, Canada Water (for the Jubilee Line), Shoreditch and Islington. This is a seriously well connected location, as well as Queen's Road station there are also good bus links into town from the end of the road - the 436 will take you all the way to Paddington and once in Peckham you have the option of the ubiquitous number 12. Your local area is awash with social endeavours! We love Frank's Cafe roof top bar and restaurant - great for some tunes and views. The much loved Prince of Peckham is just a short stroll for some fab soul food and the Copper Tap and craft ale pub, Beer Rebellion are both within staggering distance. Even closer are the cafes and eateries of Queens Road. Check out Kudu, Smokey Kudu and the fantastic Peckham Cellars. We love the Blackbird Bakery for a coffee before the commute. Keeping fit? Peckham Pulse is a short walk and has a great gym, two swimming pools and loads of evening classes. Endless yoga classes are only 10 minutes away from the property on Rye Lane in the Bussey Building or Peckham Levels, including hot yoga. Groceries? Both Asda and Tesco supermarkets are a two minute drive (on the Old Kent Road), or there's a big Morrisons in Peckham. Parks? Burgess Park is the nearest as mentioned above, but there is also Peckham Rye, Ruskin Park and Dulwich Village park all close by. Jump in the car if you want to see the river in Greenwich and check out the markets here or in nearby Crystal Palace or hangout in the super cool Deptford. Eating out? We like Ganapati - Keralan cuisine on Holly Grove (15 minutes by foot). Camberwell is also nearby and has a host of amazing eateries and pubs including Theo s, The Hermit s Cave, The Crooked Well and Camberwell Arms. If you fancy a walk, London Bridge is just a 25 - 30 minute trot, as evidenced by the view of the Shard from the terrace!Tenure: Freehold Council Tax Band: D
