Ashbourne Grove, London SE22

Please note that this house is part of an exciting new development of 3 new houses on Ashbourne Grove. Only House 2 is currently for sale. The images in the listing are of House 3, however the fixtures and materials are consistent with House 2.



Meticulously designed by Kinland & Ademchic, this contemporary four-bedroom townhouse sits on a quiet residential street in East Dulwich. A rich palette of oak, terracotta and terrazzo defines the interior, which has been finished with exquisite details and contrasting textures. The house has its own private garden at the rear and lies within easy walking distance of brilliant Lordship Lane.



The Tour



Executed with dusty white bricks and zinc, the house has been designed to echo the surrounding Victorian terraces. Set back from the road, it is entered on the ground floor, which opens onto a generous lobby.



A set of expansive living spaces unfolds from the front door, with the reception room positioned at the front and the kitchen at the rear. Soaring ceilings and lime-washed walls cast natural light around the space, which pours through from two aspects.



The kitchen's cabinetry is defined by a combination of oak, terrazzo and neutral tones. Appliances by Bosch have been integrated and there is an instant boiling water tap. Full-height glazing frames views across the garden, with a glass balustrade at the rear that looks down into the snug below. Smooth plaster balustrades snake through the house, hinging the floors together. Shadow gaps add a clean, minimalist appeal. Polished concrete grounds the space and continues on the lower ground level. Both storeys have zoned underfloor heating.



A generous double bedroom lies on the lower-ground floor and has an adjacent walk-in shower room. Floor-to-ceiling bespoke oak cabinetry stretches the breadth of these rooms, with plenty of hanging and drawer space. Next door lies a second living space, which draws light from the glazed wall in the kitchen above. A versatile space, this room could easily be adapted as an office, cinema room or gym.



Three additional bedrooms lie on the upper floors, with generous oak-framed glazing and an excellent provision of storage. In the centre of the first floor, the main bathroom is warmed by underfloor heating and has zellige-style tiles and a large floating cast concrete sink with drawer underneath. The second bedroom also has an en suite with underfloor heating, a walk-in shower and cast concrete sinks.



Outdoor Space



The house has an immaculately landscaped rear garden, with a neat patch of lawn and a carefully levelled patio area leading from the kitchen. Surrounded by neighbouring gardens, the garden is supremely peaceful.



The Area



Ashbourne Grove is perfectly positioned for the broad selection of cafés, bars and restaurants of Peckham and Dulwich.
