The Old Telephone Exchange, Camberwell, SE17

An exceptional triplex apartment with its own front door, private gardens and secure allocated parking, set within The Old Telephone Exchange, one of South London’s distinctive loft developments. Tucked away behind a gated entrance at the end of a quiet no-through road, this characterful home combines generous proportions with a remarkably flexible arrangement of spaces.

Entered at ground level, the apartment extends to approximately 1,566 sq ft, including 237 sq ft of storage, with accommodation arranged over three levels. Its adaptable layout offers the choice of three generous bedrooms, two bedrooms with two reception rooms, or two bedrooms alongside a separate studio or workspace. Two bathrooms and an additional study area bring further practicality to a home that can accommodate a variety of lifestyles.

At the heart of the apartment is a spacious open-plan kitchen, dining and living room, where impressive 3.5-metre ceilings create a wonderful sense of volume. Floor-to-ceiling Crittall windows and doors draw in natural light and open directly onto the private courtyard garden.

Private garden spaces to the front and side extend the accommodation outdoors. Together with the apartment’s independent entrance, they give this unusual home a welcome sense of privacy.

The Old Telephone Exchange enjoys a peaceful position within a conservation area, close to St Peter’s Church, Faraday Gardens, East Street Market and the open spaces of Burgess Park. The shops and everyday amenities of Walworth Road are a short stroll away, while Camberwell’s independent cafés and restaurants provide plenty to explore nearby. Borough Market, London Bridge, the Oval Cricket Ground and London South Bank University are also within easy reach.

Transport connections include Elephant & Castle Underground station, served by the Northern and Bakerloo lines, and Kennington on the Northern line, providing connections to the City and West End. Numerous bus routes run along Walworth Road.

The wider Elephant & Castle regeneration programme encompasses new homes, shops, restaurants and public spaces, alongside improvements to transport connections, pedestrian routes and green spaces.

Offered for sale chain free, the apartment also benefits from a share of freehold, secure allocated parking and bicycle storage. Residents are also eligible to apply for on-street parking permits.
