Ivydale Road, Nunhead, SE15

Gorgeous first floor Victorian conversion flat of 685 square feet on a residential Nunhead street, just five minutes from Nunhead station.

The flat is in immaculate order (it is so beautifully decorated and appointed!) with pleasingly-spacious rooms, and has pretty, green playing-field views from the rear of the property. Parking is unrestricted on the street. Leasehold.

A neat communal hall welcomes you in and this is shared with just one other flat. Open your own front door then ascend the stairs for the main body of the flat.

Up a couple of stairs heading to the rear of the flat and you have a slick fitted (and sash-windowed) bathroom to your right. Enjoy bang-on-trend monochrome fittings and a contemporary suite, an independent shower, and an under-basin drawer unit.

Straight ahead is your notably generous and double-aspect kitchen/diner, of over 16 feet by over 10. Neat white units look and work great, and run along one wall. These are paired with solid wood counters.

At the front of the property you have your sizeable reception room, of over 17 feet by over 13. In here we love the south-west facing windows (graced with custom-made shutters) inclusive of a big bay, the period fireplace, and the engineered oak floor.

Adjacent is your double bedroom - of over 11 feet each way, with a pale carpet, bespoke floor-to-ceiling alcove wardrobes, and a calming pink hue to the walls.

Getting to work and all that? You are but a five minute walk from Nunhead Station for frequent Thameslink (Farringdon, Blackfriars) and Southeastern trains (Victoria). Queens Road Peckham and Brockley stations are each a 15 minute walk (and on the London Overground network/Windrush line).

Just half a mile away, Nunhead Lane is your local and well-stocked high street with some great staples including Ayre's bakery and Soper's wet fish shop, alongside new independent offerings.

On Nunhead Lane, we really rate Goodcup/Goodnights, BARD4100, Kudu Grill, El Vermut and The Old Nun's Head. Mother Superior is great for bottles and loaves. Alkemi is delightful for homewares.

Strong local pubs for pints through to roasts include The Ivy House (with loads of regular events too), The Waverley Arms. And The Hollydale is a recent popular opening, with rotating food trucks outside.

Your local park is Telegraph Hill Park - with tennis courts, community cafe (the Hill Station) and London skyline views. Walk there in 12 minutes. You can also easily take a brief stroll to enjoy Nunhead's beautiful cemetery from this location (one of Them Magnificent Seven').
