Arla Court, 1A Rushden Close, Upper Norwood, SE19

Arla Court is a design-led three-bedroom home arranged over two well-considered floors and extending to approximately 1,054 sq ft. The aesthetic is artist-driven and luxurious, featuring bespoke detailing and a cohesive palette that is carried throughout.

On the ground floor, an open plan living, dining, and kitchen space sets the tone for modern, flexible living. Integrated Smeg appliances sit within a streamlined kitchen, complemented by instant boiling-water taps for everyday ease. Engineered flooring runs underneath, while bright smart lighting allows you to set the mood from day to night. A discreet downstairs WC and thoughtful storage keep the layout practical and calm, and full-height glazing draws natural light deep into the plan.

Moving upstairs, three serene bedrooms are arranged for privacy and comfort. The principal bedroom features tailored finishes and its own ensuite bathroom, appointed with Crosswater and Roca sanitary ware and large-format porcelain tiling. A beautifully finished family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms, with the exact same refined specification and attention to detail.

Stepping outside to the garden, the ground-floor reception spills onto a private patio framed by a bespoke-made pergola, creating an outdoor room for morning coffee and summer suppers. From here, there is direct access to the landscaped communal gardens, set among new and mature trees, with a small play area for residents. Porcelain-tiled patios and balconies have been specified for their durability and ease of maintenance. Practical amenities include private parking and a secure storage area.

Sustainability is embedded across the development: sedum green-roof areas and solar panels on the main building support energy efficiency; wet underfloor heating throughout the apartment, highly efficient building materials, and energy-efficient integrated appliances help lower running costs; smart-lighting technologies, electric car charging, and electric bike charging in the bike store encourage low-carbon Livi Biodiversity features, such as bug hotels, a bird box, and a bat box, box—subtly enrich the setting. Eco-ethical building methods underpin the scheme’s considerate approach.
The location is quintessential Crystal Palace living: Westow Park and Upper Norwood Park are just moments away, offering a choice of green spaces for runs, picnics and weekend strolls.

The Organic Farmer’s Market and Sainsbury’s are roughly a seven-minute stroll, while the Crystal Palace Triangle provides an ever-changing mix of independent cafés, restaurants, bars and boutiques. For commuters, Crystal Palace and Gipsy Hill stations are approximately a 15-minute walk away, placing the City and West End within easy reach.

A rare blend of crafted detail, sustainability and everyday convenience—turnkey, quietly luxurious and ready to move in and enjoy.
