About
Beautifully-renovated and turnkey one bedroom top floor Victorian conversion apartment with a Freehold-share, just a two minute walk from St John’s Station (Fare Zone 2), and a three minute one from Brockley Market (held 10am to 2pm each Saturday).
Your new pad takes the second (top) proper floor of a large and handsome semi-detached townhouse within the desirable and notably well-connected St John's Conservation Area, at the end of a sleepy and leafy no-through street near St John’s Station and St John’s Church.
Through the main front door and your own front door is at first floor level. Up smart stairs here and the flat flows from the smart second floor landing.
Take a left first here for your double bedroom. A good size at over 11 feet by over 8 feet, with cool sliding door access to your windowed and high-end shower room. Your main event fronts the house.
It is a delightful open-plan friendly room which incorporates reception, kitchen and dining spaces, of over 18 feet by over 12 feet. Twin sash windows deliver leafy vistas.
Your modern matte fitted kitchen has integrated appliances (included in the sale). Stations? St Johns is your closest as we’ve mentioned, where the journey-time to London Bridge is just eight minutes.
New Cross, Brockley and Lewisham stations, plus Deptford Bridge DLR Station are all within a 15 minute one. You are very well-placed for buses and cycle routes as well.
Locally, Brookmill Park is a five acre linear one, running alongside the tidal River Ravensbourne (which becomes a tributary to the Thames less than a mile away).
The park sustains an exceptionally rich and impressive variety of birdlife with kingfishers, herons, egrets, moorhens, coots, mallard, wagtails, goldfinches, long-tailed tits, migratory visitors and more.
The park is also home to ~eight pairs of pipistrelle bats and is currently being managed to enhance green corridors. Two nature reserves adjoin the park.
A little bit of a secret this area, but not for long! An extremely well-connected patch.
The stuff of driving lessons: Victorian streets in the main with excellent transport links, shops, cafes and parks (Hilly Fields and Ladywell Fields are well worth a wander).
In St John’s you have Deptford directly to the north, Brockley to the south, Lewisham/Greenwich to the east, and New Cross/Peckham to the west.
In your hyper-local area, some of the best spots are Middleton deli/cafe, and The Talbot and Brookmill pubs.
Lewisham is your nearest town centre (walk 10-15 minutes) with a strong leisure centre with pool, gym and classes, a decent shopping centre (M&S, Boots etc.), daily market stalls, a large regeneration plan in place to further improve the town centre’s offering, and of course the planned Bakerloo line extension.
You are about a mile from The Maritime Greenwich unesco World Heritage Site which comprises the historic town centre, the beautiful Royal Park and the related institutional buildings.
The Royal Observatory is a must-go-to and the views from up here at the top of the park are really something.
