Pennethorne Road, Peckham, SE15

Beautifully Extended Five Bedroom Period Home on Peaceful Street.

This well appointed five bedroom period home has been expertly augmented to supply unexpectedly spacious accommodation over three beautiful floors. Boasting some tasteful fixtures and fittings and a sprinkling of original features, the property comprises a lovely reception room, huge kitchen/diner extension, utility room, five proper double bedrooms, bathroom, shower room and additional wc. The rear garden has been a similarly handsome spruce - it offers a fine spot for leafy r&r. Queens Road station is a 10 minute walk for regular swift services to London Bridge in around 7 minutes. Alternatively, Peckham Rye station is a 15 minute walk for the Victoria and Blackfriars/City options too. Both stations enjoy the hugely popular London Overground Line. From the Old Kent Road, pick up any number of buses to various London destinations, including a 5 minute journey to the newly vamped up Elephant & Castle. Burgess Park with its lakes, hills, old Victorian buildings and tennis club is one of the most impressive Urban parks in South London – It's just a 10 minute stroll away along the old canal pathway from the home.

A handsome exterior offers access through your neat front garden where a recessed portico leads inward. The hall boasts gorgeous original cornicing and corbels and some slick neutral décor. A front-facing reception leans into a wide bay of sash windows. Theses enjoy louvered blinds. The original feature fireplace is flanked on either side by bespoke low level storage and there's more decorative original cornicing. A fantastic utility comes next along the hall with storage space for coats, shoes and brollies. A deep fitted storage unit will house the ladder, ironing boards and any amount of this and that. A generous run of counter and sink space sits over your laundry area which is plumbed for washing machine and tumble dryer. The handy understairs wc precedes the kitchen/diner where delightful Quartz counters run generously. Appliances include a five ring gas range, integrated dishwasher and an American fridge/freezer. There's abundant space for dining, lounging and entertaining. A set of glass doors open wide to your rear garden which has integrated seating and peaceful vibes.

Heading upward you find the first return stretches generously to supply the first of your amazing double bedrooms. Currently arranged as a study/gym it offers a leafy dual aspect and wonderful tonal wall shades. A family shower room shares this level enjoying a double walk-in shower, twin wash hand basin and side aspect window. The front-facing bedroom is a lavish double with tonnes of fitted storage and a dainty feature fireplace. A third double bedroom faces rear next to this with more elegant styling and fitted storage. The second return is bright and airy with a large skylight flooding airiness downward over the stairwell. A fourth double bedroom, currently used as a second study, faces rear over the garden. A handy airing cupboard off the landing will keep the sheets neat and tidy. The fifth and final bedroom enjoys an aspect to front and rear and plenty of low level eaves storage.

In addition to London Bridge services, Queens Road also benefits from the London Overground Line with services to Clapham, Canada Water (for the Jubilee Line), Shoreditch and Islington. This is a seriously well connected location, as well as Queen's Road station there are also good bus links into town from the end of the road - the 436 will take you all the way to Paddington and once in Peckham you have the option of the ubiquitous number 12. Your local area is awash with social endeavours! We love Frank's Cafe roof top bar and restaurant - great for some tunes and views. The much loved Prince of Peckham is just a short stroll for some fab soul food and the Copper Tap and craft ale pub, Beer Rebellion are both within staggering distance. Even closer are the cafes and eateries of Queens Road. Check out Kudu, Smokey Kudu and the fantastic Peckham Cellars. We love the Blackbird Bakery for a coffee before the commute. Keeping fit? Peckham Pulse is a short walk and has a great gym, two swimming pools and loads of evening classes. Endless yoga classes are only 10 minutes away from the property on Rye Lane in the Bussey Building or Peckham Levels, including hot yoga. Groceries? Both Asda and Tesco supermarkets are a two minute drive (on the Old Kent Road), or there's a big Morrisons in Peckham. Parks? Burgess Park is the nearest as mentioned above, but there is also Peckham Rye, Ruskin Park and Dulwich Village park all close by. Jump in the car if you want to see the river in Greenwich and check out the markets here or in nearby Crystal Palace or hangout in the super cool Deptford. Eating out? We like Ganapati - Keralan cuisine on Holly Grove (15 minutes by foot). Camberwell is also nearby and has a host of amazing eateries and pubs including Theo’s, The Hermit’s Cave, The Crooked Well and Camberwell Arms. If you fancy a walk, London Bridge is just a 25 - 30 minute trot, as evidenced by the view of the Shard from the terrace!
