East Dulwich Road, East Dulwich, SE22

Park-facing and totally-charming two bedroom flat with its own front door, a Freehold-share, its own generous garden section, and a private and wide balcony off the principal bedroom.

Find the property on the favoured floor (raised ground) of a grand bay-fronted Victorian semi.

Opposite you, Goose Green is a well-tended popular public open space, with mature plane trees delighting throughout the seasons. Peckham Rye Park and Common's 113 acres are close as well: at your feet in seven minutes.

Walk just five minutes to East Dulwich Station, for Fare Zone 2 trains (bus travel is easy in this spot, too). You are moments from East Dulwich's brilliant high street - Lordship Lane. You are also within easy reach of Peckham, Camberwell, Dulwich Village and Nunhead.

Back to the flat! On entry, you'll first note your high ceilings, and you have a handy built-in cupboard to your left, for coats and such.

To your right is your bright south-east facing reception room, which is of the oversized variety (over 17 feet by over 12 feet) - there is plenty of space to zone seating and dining areas. Beyond its size, welcome room features include the marble fireplace, stripped floors, sash windows, coving and ceiling rose detail, and high skirtings.

Adjacent is the carpeted master bedroom: a total beauty, of over 13 feet by nearly 13 feet, with more original intricate coving plus ceiling rose and picture rail, another marble fireplace, and two sets of painted-timber French doors onto your own balcony. Verdant vistas can be quietly enjoyed out here. Built-in wardrobes rest in the room's alcoves.

Next you have your second bedroom (this one is over 9 feet by over 6 feet), also carpeted, and with a single sash to green views once again. This room is currently enjoyed as a luxury home office.

Next door, also set to the back of the building, is your independent kitchen. This is small but perfectly formed, with a glass splash back, and a smart bank of modern base units, and open-shelf detail.

Finally (accessed by a space-saving sliding pocket door), you have your neat bathroom - with separate shower, modern white sanitary ware and fittings, and glass brick detail which keeps matters bright. A built-in cupboard (ideal for towels and linen) outside the bathroom completes your tour.

What a spot! East Dulwich leisure centre is very close by. You also have fab shopping, pubs, restaurants, cafes and takeaways within a few minutes of your front door.

This is prime Peckham Rye/East Dulwich borderland; a 10 minute stroll will land you on Bellenden Road - for such joys as Artusi, The Begging Bowl, Ganapati, The Sourcing Table and The General Store.

And lovely Lordship Lane is great of a weekend or evening: recommendations are North Cross Road's Saturday market, East Dulwich Picture House, EDT and The Palmerston.

There are two M&S Food Halls locally, plus a big Sainsbury's store - by Dulwich Hamlet FC. For independent grocery shopping, check out William Rose butchery (and good grocer opposite), The Cheese Block and SMBS among many others. All on Lordship Lane.
