York Grove, London, SE15

This property oozes ‘wow’ factor. Nestled in a secure gated development on a quiet no-through road in a corner of hip Peckham, this stylish first-floor, two-bedroom split-level home, set within a beautifully converted former school, effortlessly blends period charm with modern, loft-style living.

Step into a spacious entrance hall leading to a bright, open-plan kitchen and reception area. Your eyes will immediately be drawn to the soaring ceilings and striking double-height windows, with views to the Shard and other central London peaks. The ground floor has the first of two double bedrooms and boasts restored, original Victorian wood flooring and exposed brickwork, adding warmth and authenticity. The ground floor bedroom is thoughtfully designed, with an internal window maintaining a bright, airy feel.

Upstairs, the mezzanine level hosts a second bedroom and a generously sized, recently renovated bathroom. There is generous storage space throughout and some unique features, including a 'secret' route through to the bathroom from the main bedroom. Additional benefits include access to a communal garden, a secure bike store, and allocated off-street parking.

Queens Road Peckham station is just a short walk away, offering regular London Overground and National Rail services, with quick access to London Bridge, Clapham Junction, Shoreditch High Street and Whitechapel for the Elizabeth Line.

The station is surrounded by a bustling high street, featuring bars and coffee shops, including the award-winning Peckham Cellars, the celebrated Kudu, and the charming Blackbird Bakery. Peckham Rye’s independent shops, rooftop bars, acclaimed restaurants, yoga studios, cinema and pop-up markets are all within easy reach. Local parks include Peckham Rye, Burgess Park, Telegraph Hill, and Nunhead cemetery, one of London’s magnificent seven Victorian cemeteries. Viewing is highly recommended.
