Highshore Road, Peckham

An Italianate-style Grade II listed semi-detached villa (1838), recently renovated to a high design standard, offering approximately 2,093 square feet of beautifully-presented living space. Situated on a desirable corner plot within Peckham's sought-after Holly Grove Conservation Area, the property boasts a rare and expansive front driveway much admired in this neighbourhood and a generous, walled rear garden with a sunny south-easterly orientation. Peckham Rye Station is a mere five-minute walk away, and the shops, cafes and restaurants of Bellenden Road are even closer, at just four minutes on foot.

A few steps lead up to the handsome front door, which opens into a wider-than-usual entrance hallsetting the tone for the generous proportions found throughout. Immediately to your right is a formal reception room measuring over 16 feet by 14, featuring original window shutters, and an original fireplace. Connecting doors open to a second reception room of over 14 feet by 11, where a large sash window frames views of the garden. This room also showcases an original fireplace and elegant period detailing such as high skirting boards and ornate coving.

A short flight of stairs leads down to a glazed back door that opens onto the garden, alongside a convenient guest W.C. Descend further to reach the lower ground floor, where a stunning 26-foot kitchen/reception room awaits. This characterful space includes exposed brickwork, steel beams, a polished concrete floor and a central island. A spacious pantry/utility room is also found here. French doors open directly onto the landscaped rear garden, which extends over 60 feet and is beautifully designed and stocked to provide year-round interest.

The first floor continues to impress with a light-filled landing and garden-facing stair window. Off the landing is the main bathroom, presented in an architecturally-designed style with white sanitary ware, and two double bedrooms one over 16 feet by 14, the other over 13 feet by 10. Both feature original fireplaces, old school-style radiators, and generous fitted alcove wardrobes.

The top floor offers a third large double bedroom of over 16 feet by 13, complete with panelled detailing, built-in storage, and an en suite bathroom.

Peckham Rye is the nearest station only a two-minute walk away, providing London Overground services to East London, The City and Docklands at Canada Water.

This refined home is close to excellent local schools, including The Belham Primary and The Villa, while top independent schools in Dulwich are just a short drive away. Bellenden Road is a brief stroll, offering delights such as Ganapati, Artusi, The Begging Bowl, and independent shops like Review bookstore, Flock & Herd, Gather, and The General Store.

Rye Lane offers additional amenities including markets, supermarkets, banks, and the popular Peckham Plex Cinema, Peckham Levels and The Bussey Building. In warmer months, Frank's rooftop bar is a local favourite. Nearby areas such as Camberwell, East Dulwich and Herne Hill offer even more to explore.
