Beech Court, East Dulwich Road, East Dulwich, London

Characterful and comfortable purpose-built Victorian apartment of over 1028 square feet, with two bathrooms, two double bedrooms, one single bedroom, and lots of period features - including high ceilings and original fireplaces. Chain free.

Find your new home in leafy Peckham/Dulwich borderland, on the first floor of a handsome mansion block that is mere strides from Peckham Rye Park and Common’s 113 acres.

For rail travel, walk 10-15 minutes to Peckham Rye or East Dulwich stations. There are loads of useful bus routes on your doorstep as well.

There is a shared main door and a well-maintained communal hall. Your own front door is on the first floor. To your immediate right you have a perfectly-placed built-in closet for coats etc.

Now the rooms! First find a big bay-windowed bedroom to the front of the property. This is over 15 feet by over 13 feet. Next door is the large single bedroom, of over 7 feet by nearly 12 feet. Then adjacent is your large reception room (currently enjoyed as a bedroom) of over 16 feet by over 13 feet.

Next up, a large eat- in kitchen rests to the back of the building. Facing south, it is a pleasingly bright room in which to cook and dine. An internal bathroom with modern white suite is our next stop.

Finally, find your third sunny south-facing bedroom (of over 13 feet by over 9 feet) to the back of the building, with a smart windowed en suite shower room.

What a spot! As well as being pretty much Rye-side, you have lots of other popular public green spaces within easy reach. Examples are Goose Green, Nunhead Cemetery, Horniman Gardens and Dulwich Park.

Your local main high street areas Lordship Lane, Bellenden Road and Nunhead Lane are fabulous, and offer loads of independent options alongside the usual suspects. We like SMBS, The Cheese Block and William Rose and Moxon’s. North Cross Road puts on a great market each Saturday. Rye Lane is good for fruit and veg stalls.

The foodie offering is particularly strong in your ‘hood and you can eat the globe without leaving it. Local restaurants include The Victory, Artusi, The Begging Bowl, Ganapati, Mr Bao, Hausu, Levan, Il Giardino, Peckham Bazaar and Lai Rai.

Your local pubs include The Gowlett, The Angel Oak, The White Horse, The Montpelier, The Clockhouse, The EDT, Watson’s General Telegraph and The Herne Tavern. Bars/nightlife? Head to Rye Lane/Bussey Building/Peckham Levels for the trendiest spots, exhibitions, events and pop ups. For mugged beverages, Cafe G and Nola are top nearby spots.
