Property description

Built in the 1950s to an impressive spec, it’s located in a peaceful and leafy spot in Forest Hill and offers a stylish, convenient oasis of calm and comfort. The accommodation is well proportioned, perfectly laid out and comprises a bright and bold reception, kitchen/diner, three bedrooms, a bathroom, a utility room and two WCs. There's oodles of fitted storage, it’s double glazed throughout and has fantastic gardens to the front and rear. The location is lofty and mature - a real top spot (pardon the pun). You can stroll to Forest Hill station in around 7 minutes for the morning commute. 

The house sits behind a decent sized front garden with brick paving, high hedging and a spot for locking your bikes. The front door is recessed, preceding the first of many storage points. Once inside you meet an original 50s glass pane to your right. Through this you spy the incredibly bright and inviting, south westerly facing reception which soaks in a flood of light through a huge front facing window. The far wall has been partially removed to create a wonderful flow with the kitchen/diner. A remarkably well-maintained original 50s cast iron fireplace and retro grey tiling remain as the central focus.

The kitchen is modern, bright and conducive to family dining. Thick solid oak counters over sleek white cabinets conceal an integrated dishwasher, plenty of storage and the original ceramic sink. Double glass doors open wide for glorious airiness - the flow of leafy scents throughout the ground floor is a delight. The patio gives way to a gently sloping lawn with planter bed and shed. There's a wonderful array of veg and flowers to keep you busy in the milder months and as there are no overlookers from the rear you can sun bake in peace. In winter months there is a lovely view through the trees to the beautiful Hormiman Museum clock tower, which can also be enjoyed while sipping tea at the kitchen table.

Upstairs you meet a square carpeted landing with recessed storage cupboard, loft access and a nifty suspended wooden drying rack over the staircase. The master bedroom fronts the street with crisp neutral walls and more quality carpeting. The single bedroom also faces front and has built-in shelving and fitted storage. A second double bedroom boasts the garden view and yet more fitted storage. The bathroom including a cast-iron bath and WC are separate - great for keeping the morning dash traffic free. 

The transport links are superb. Forest Hill station has regular mainline services to London Bridge (20 minutes) and Victoria (30 minutes), and regular Overground services to Shoreditch (25 minutes) and Highbury & Islington (35 minutes), it also only takes 15 minutes to get to Canary Wharf. Six bus routes are within 3 minutes walk, enabling you to get to Brixton, Crystal Palace and into the centre of town in no-time at all. A designated car parking space is also available right outside. You're within the catchment area for the Ofsted Outstanding Eliot Bank Primary School. The award-winning Horniman Museum is a 3 minute stroll down the hill with wonderful landscaped gardens and a frilly Victorian conservatory for tea. Dulwich Park is a 20 minute walk away and if you fancy somewhere a little wilder, the beautiful Sydenham Woods is just up the road. The local shops are within 5 minutes and include a great independent butchers and a large Sainsbury's.  There are lots of excellent cafes, restaurants and pubs, and a new Picturehouse Cinema in East Dulwich is only a 10 minute bus ride or drive away.
