Desvignes Drive, London

A unique and spacious two-bedroom apartment located on the fourth floor of the popular Meridian South Development in Hither Green! The apartment offers an impressive 756sqft of internal floorspace with access to two balconies, including a wrap-around balcony with lovely views of Canary Wharf on one side and the clocktower within the development on the other.

As you enter, the hallway has ample storage with the family bathroom on the right-hand side; the bathroom is smartly presented with some tiling across the walls and floor. You’ll then find access to both good-sized bedrooms. The master bedroom has built-in wardrobes, a modern en-suite shower room, and direct access to the wrap-around balcony.

You’ll be even more impressed with the huge reception room which has a separate dining area and offers a great entertainment space. You can also access the U-shaped kitchen which is fitted with some integrated appliances and has lots of worktop space. The large reception room benefits from access to two balconies as well as having space for a dining table and chairs. The first balcony you’ll be pleased to know is south-facing, ideal to soak up some sun or enjoy a morning beverage. The wrap-around balcony has a south-facing aspect which leads round to the northwest side, catching the sun on late summer evenings! Additional benefits include an allocated parking space, lift access, and electric heating throughout.

Rosse Gardens is in the popular Meridian South Development, a redeveloped hospital featuring beautifully landscaped communal grounds. There is a very handy Tesco and Anytime Fitness gym just across the road, as well as another parade of shops close by on Hither Green Lane, including a local Co-op. As well as having security cameras within the development, there is also a well-regarded GP and pharmacy, and the highly rated Park Nursery. Be sure to meet the famous caretaker, Bob, who looks after the development out of the clocktower and is extremely friendly and helpful.

Mountsfield Park nearby is a stunning green space featuring huge open fields, colourful flower gardens and tennis courts, plus a playground and a popular cafe. For commuters, Hither Green Station, in Zone 3, is only a 7-minute walk away and offers great transport links into the city, only a 10-minute ride to London Bridge and continuing into Waterloo East and Charing Cross. By the station there is a range of boutique shops, cafes and restaurants as well as The Station Pub, which serves great food and drinks if you’re looking for a local! Lewisham town centre is also close by with an even greater choice of branded stores and restaurants.

The current owners have loved their time in the apartment and will particularly miss lunches at La Delice cafe followed by strolls through the park and takeaways from Saka Maka, the local Indian. They have also enjoyed having the space to host regularly, including dinner parties of up to 12 people - a rarity in London!

We expect this apartment to be in high demand as it offers many unique selling points and attributes. Please call our office on to arrange a viewing or ask any questions.
