Ivydale Road, Nunhead, SE15

Delightful five bedroom red-brick Victorian mid-terraced house with both bath and shower rooms (plus a guest w.c.), near Ivydale Primary School and The Puddleduck (independent) Nursery.

Measuring in at 1716 square feet, your new turnkey home has a pleasing blend of traditional and modern features, and a great sense of scale thanks to the high ceilings and good proportions throughout. Parking is unrestricted, on-street. Chain free.

During their ownership and occupancy, the sellers have added a beautiful loft conversion, with great care taken over the details - like ventilation/multiple skylight windows (including over the top stairwell) and easily-accessible eaves storage.

This is a top spot, too! A popular residential street. Walk 12 minutes to Nunhead Station, or to Brockley Station in 18 (both are Fare Zone 2). You are also blissfully-close to Peckham Rye Park and Common and to Nunhead Cemetery (one of 'The Magnificent Seven').

In your front door and on your right you have your wooden-floored formal reception rooms, running over 26 feet to French doors onto the side return area of the garden. You have custom-made shutters to the front bay, welcome coving, picture rail and rose detailing, and a central cast iron fireplace with a gorgeous marble surround. The front room's alcoves have built-in cupboards and shelving.

Next you have a smart guest w.c. (with window), and doored access to your useful cellar space. Your fabulous kitchen/diner (extending 23 feet) has the property's second of three bays - a natural spot for the dining table, and a fetching fitted kitchen in a timeless Shaker style, with a double ceramic Butler sink. Folding doors on the back wall deliver you to your garden of ~45 feet. Neighbouring gardens surround yours to all sides - it is a lovely outlook.

Up the stairs to the half-landing area and you have the property's main and windowed bathroom to your right. This has a traditional-style suite and fittings including a stainless-steel heated towel radiator.

Next door is a generous carpeted double bedroom with fitted storage and a slimline column radiator.

From the landing proper, bedroom two rests to your left. This is 11 feet by nearly 12 feet, with an original feature fireplace and an original (painted, wooden) cupboard to the near alcove.

Across the front of the house you have your principal bedroom - a total treat at over 17 feet by over 14 feet, with bay number three, and an additional window over the front door/hall in position (more custom-mase shutters bring on the smiles). Fitted wardrobes further feature, to both alcoves.

Up to the second floor and you have another double bedroom to garden vistas at the back of the house. It's over 9 feet by nearly 9 feet. A contemporary shower room sits next door (serving both the top bedrooms). Your top bedroom is notably bright and spacious.

The area? Nunhead's high street has an impressive offering of independent shops and places to eat and drink. We rate El Vermut, BARD4100, Mother Superior and Goodcup/Goodnights. Established local favourite grocery shops are FC Soper wet fish shop and Ayres bakery. The Pyrotechnists Arms and The Old Nun's Head are nice local pubs, as are The Waverley and The Ivy House. You also have a village-style green with playground area.

For more options, Peckham, New Cross, Brockley, Deptford and Dulwich are a short distance. In East Dulwich we recommend Dulwich Picturehouse (on Lordship Lane) and North Cross Road Saturday market.

Local school provision is strong - with Ivydale Primary and Nursery most local to you, and Edmund Waller Primary School and Haberdashers' (3-18) close as well. The Dulwich independent schools are a short drive or cycle.
