Farquhar Road, Crystal Palace, London, SE19

Occupying the sixth floor of Knoll Court, this carefully preserved two bedroom apartment unfolds across a bright, south-west-facing plan with far-reaching views across the treetops. Included in the sale is a private garage positioned adjacent to the building.

Offered chain-free, the apartment has been sensitively maintained, retaining a wealth of original mid-century details while presenting an opportunity for thoughtful future adaptation.

The reception space is defined by expansive Crittall windows that draw in excellent natural light throughout the day. Original herringbone parquet flooring runs underfoot, whilst terrazzo window sills provide a subtle reminder of the building’s post-war architectural heritage.

Two generously proportioned bedrooms sit quietly within the plan, each retaining its original built-in wardrobe. The kitchen balances practicality with period character, preserving its original glazed sliding door and fitted cupboard. Marmoleum flooring continues through both the kitchen and bathroom, lending a cohesive and durable finish. The bathroom has been upgraded and is efficiently arranged, with integrated storage incorporated into the design.

Knoll Court forms part of the celebrated Dulwich Wood Park Estate, designed by Austin Vernon & Partners for the Dulwich Estate in the post-war period. The wider development is distinguished by its generous landscaped grounds and considered relationship to the surrounding woodland setting. As the first apartment block completed on the estate, Knoll Court remains one of its most admired buildings, recognised for its colourful tiled elevations and decorative panelling. A mural by artist Reginald Brill provides a striking focal point within the entrance lobby.

The setting is notably peaceful, surrounded by extensive communal green space, yet remains within easy reach of the amenities of Crystal Palace.
