3 bed flat for sale

Nightingale Grove, Hither Green SE13

Big, smart and modern three bedroom ground floor apartment of 1076 square feet (yep - the size of your average Victorian terrace!) with its own front door, both bath and shower rooms, and a huge and west-facing private garden too.

Walk just four minutes to Hither Green Station (Fare Zone 3). Leasehold.

The flat's in Billinghurst Court. You open your own front door into a generous hall. The first of your bedrooms is on your right - it’s over 14 feet by over 10 feet. Next door is a modern internal bathroom with contemporary sanitary ware and large profile tiling.

Next up’s the gigantic reception room with glossy fitted kitchen (with integrated appliances) set just off this space. Plenty of opportunity to go large with your furniture here - it’s massive! Zone seating, dining, work and play areas easily. A double-glazed door opens onto the (patio and astro-turfed) garden - the size of which is rarely found. Built-in seating doubles as garden storage; clever!

Two further generous bedrooms look onto the private garden space - of over 16 feet by 8 feet, and 16 feet by nearly 8. All three bedrooms are carpeted.

The other side of the hall from the bedrooms you’ve got a big store cupboard and an independent utility, and a neat shower room too (again, fitted-out in a contemporary style).

Hither Green is becoming increasingly popular with young professionals and families alike - for its winning combination of fast commute to the City and Canary Wharf, leafy disposition and village-vibe.

Hither Green Station is a four minute trot and will have you in central London in a jiffy, with a 10 minute journey time to London Bridge, or 20 to Charing Cross/Canon St. Buses 181/225 take you almost to the door, and Lewisham Station is on the Bakerloo Line extension plan.

Locally on Hither Green Lane, you have a handy Co-Op and Mission Green Organic Food shop. Drink at Bob's and Good Hope Cafe (plus a new independent florist) are popular destinations on Hither Green Lane itself, as is Cafe Green (on Ennersdale Road, for authentic Vietnamese food). The Station Hotel is a strong local public house, or walk down to Lewisham’s town centre for main shops M&S, Sainsbury's and the daily market.

If you have little ones or they are on the horizon, Brindishe Manor School (Ofsted-rated ‘Outstanding’) is a short walk away.

Green space? Lewisham Park and Mountsfield Parks are local, and others include Ladywell Fields, Hilly Fields, Blackheath Common and Greenwich Park and unesco World Heritage Site.
