2 bed flat for sale

St. Marys Road, Peckham SE15

Gorgeous garden flat alert! Feast your eyes on this beautifully, thoroughly and sensitively refurbished two bedroom contemporary Georgian home with its own front door, secure gated side access (to your private sunny west-facing garden), a substantial garden studio, and off-street parking to boot.

This is a hot little spot that is so well-connected: You are just a three minute walk from Queens Road Peckham Station (regular and Overground services - be at London Bridge inside 10 minutes) and 10 from Nunhead Station (Thameslink services). There are also lots of useful bus routes from nearby Queens Road.

Your own front door sits to the side of the grand, curved-bay-fronted semi-detached villa. Open and you land in a smart tiled hall (Fired Earth, swoon! These flow through to the kitchen) with a built-in coat closet.

First, find your bedrooms. Ahead is the principal one. This is over 14 feet by over 13 feet, with delightful custom-made wardrobes either side of the door, and an oversized walk-in wardrobe as well. Alcove shelving and wonderful painted timber shutters - to the sashes in the curved bay - further impress.

To your immediate left is bedroom two - of over 18 feet by over 6 feet. As throughout, walls are crisp and white.

Practicality and intelligent use of space is built into every aspect of this handsome home, which next delivers a glass-doored study with bespoke, built-in L-shaped oak desk and floor-to-ceiling shelves. Opposite is a dedicated utility space with plumbing and washing machine.

On your right is your windowed bathroom. This is brand-new but classically-styled. It features Fired Earth terrazzo floor tiles, emerald green wall tiles, brass hardware throughout, reclaimed-wood shelves and a white roll-top claw-foot bath.

At the top of the hall is your kitchen. This is fully equipped and includes black marble worktops, ample counter space, integrated appliances, and a farmhouse sink with brass hardware. The large recently-installed aluminium window opens onto the garden (pleasingly complimenting the doors in the living room). A custom-designed reclaimed-wood breakfast bar provides the perfect coffee nook with garden vistas.

Your warm and inviting reception room awaits, with original mouldings and floor-to-ceiling built-in bookshelves. The room is over 14 feet by over 13 feet, so you can easily zone seating and dining spaces. A central fireplace is a great focal point, and floor-to-ceiling fitted alcove shelves are either side of this - for your books, trinkets and the TV. Large premium aluminium double-glazed French doors deliver you outside.

The large garden is a natural extension of the home. Enclosed by a newly installed fence, it features a stone-paved patio and steps leading to a well-kept lawn, mature pear tree, and large, functional log cabin-style garden room. Fully powered and heated, this versatile space currently serves as both a home office and guest accommodation. The garden also features a secure, private back garden entrance leading to a newly landscaped external walkway - making this a dual entrance property.

Local social hubs include the area around qrp Station (Kudu, Blackbird Bakery, Beer Rebellion, Mamma Dough, Well & Fed, a new tapas place too) and central Nunhead (BARD4100, El Vermut, Mother Superior, Goodcup/Goodnights, The Old Nun’s Head…). You are also but a 15 minute walk from central Peckham for options such as Peckham Levels, The Bussey Building, and a multitude of places to eat and drink on Bellenden Road - such as The Sourcing Table, Artusi, The Begging Bowl and Ganapati.

Local well-regarded schools include Edmund Waller, John Donne and Ivydale primaries. Local green spaces include the Telegraph Hill parks, Nunhead Cemetery, and Peckham Rye Park and Common.
