Description
Peaceful, private and utterly charming, this magical double fronted five bedroom period dream rests politely behind high gates off the much loved Grove Lane. It's so secluded most folk don't realise it's there. Inside you meet some very special original features - sash windows, cornicing, architraves, doors; it's a delight! The room sizes hark back to an era sadly long gone (you'll find some of them hard to fill)! The garden wraps around all four sides and is well stocked with greenery and flowers. There's off street parking for up to three cars too. The location sells itself - you're within the Camberwell Grove conservation area which boasts some of the finest period homes in south London. Camberwell is fast becoming a social hub; there's a healthy list of fancy new eateries and social hotspots popping up regularly. Transport is taken care of with Denmark Hill station and the fancy new ticket hall (it's a 6 minute stroll).
Peace affording high gates open to the pretty front garden. You'll park the family car in the far left corner. A proud portico bearing the house's name 'White Lodge' invites you inward through an original period door with stunning arched fanlight. The inner hall has cornicing and a beautiful curling hardwood banister on the original staircase. Grey carpeting and neutral decor offer a fresh, uncomplicated finish. Head right to find the first reception - a dual aspect, spacious and bright room with leafy views over the garden. The sash windows are almost floor to ceiling and each have their original shutters. A feature mantel and exposed brick fireplace runs along the rear wall along with built in shelving. Across the hall you meet a similarly well-proportioned reception room with another glorious original sash window and feature mantel. Picture rails and cornicing circumnavigate overhead. The modern kitchen is accessed to the rear of the hall. It has matching tiles on floors and counters. There's a five ring gas hob, double oven, one and a half bowl stainless steel sink and drainer and plenty of fitted storage. A rear and side aspect keep things light and airy. A third reception/dining room sits back the far side of the hall with fresh timber floors, low level storage and another pleasant dual aspect. A modern, fully tiled shower room and separate w.c completes the ground floor. You'll find access to the deceptively huge lower ground floor under the stairs. It will house any number of activities/whatnot.
Upward to the first floor you first meet a stylish square landing kept bright by a large skylight. The first overtly mammoth double bedroom faces front to the right. It has stained original floorboards, picture rails and a beautiful feature fireplace with tiling. A similarly impressively sized double bedroom sits the far side of the hall - it needs a little work to make it shine but that's the fun part. Bedroom three will comfortably fit a double bed or make a great nursery as it interconnects with bedroom two. The fourth bedroom sits rear with a side aspect and enjoys a feature fireplace and fitted wardrobes. Next to this you'll find a further w.c (with cute nautical window) and bathroom. Bedroom five is a sizable dual aspect double with more quality carpeting.
A beautiful house in a top location for central Camberwell - all life's necessities are within walking distance, as is Denmark Hill train station (zone 2) for excellent links to Victoria, London Bridge and Blackfriars as well as numerous bus services to the City and West End. The London Overground Line recently added to the fun with frequent, fast services to Shoreditch, Clapham, Islington and Canary Wharf (via Canada Water). Kings College Hospital and the Maudsley are just four minutes on foot if that is where you work and the Dulwich Foundation Schools are all within a short drive time. On the food front, head out for a bite to eat at two friendly locals; The Grand Union and The Crooked Well. If you've decided to cook you can pop round the corner into Daneville Road where you'll find a large Morrison’s or you could drive five minutes to all the gastro pubs, delis and other great shops in Lordship Lane. Keeping fit? Ruskin Park is a short hop for some jogging, ball games or a spot of Sunday slouching. The refurbished Camberwell Public Baths offer a beautiful pool and brand new leisure centre – and it’s right at the end of your street – no excuses then!
