Camberwell Grove, London, SE5

Positioned along one of South London’s most admired residential streets, this substantial Regency residence on Camberwell Grove offers a rare opportunity to acquire a home of scale and character. Extending to approximately 4,400 sq ft and arranged over five storeys, the property is currently divided into four self-contained apartments. While it now requires comprehensive refurbishment, it provides an exceptional canvas for redevelopment whether for investment or as a striking single private home. Having been held by the same family for over a century, it combines a sense of heritage with significant untapped potential. A deep rear garden, stretching to around 106 feet, adds an appealing outdoor dimension.

Set back from the road and framed by a front garden with established greenery partly belonging to the property the house enjoys a strong sense of privacy and presence. The façade features elegant arched windows and a traditional entrance with a fanlight above, leading into a hallway with generous ceiling height. From here, the ground floor accommodation includes a pair of rooms to the front, along with a larger reception space overlooking the garden, plus a kitchen and bathroom.

Upstairs, the upper floors continue the theme of flexible living arrangements. The first floor includes two bedrooms, a bathroom to the front, an additional room to the rear that could serve as a reception or bedroom, and a separate kitchen with pantry space. A terrace accessed from the half-landing connects down to the extensive garden, which offers a rare sense of depth and greenery in this setting. The top floor apartment is arranged over split levels and includes a reception room, three bedrooms, a kitchen, and additional storage areas with scope for reconfiguration.
