This late-Victorian mid-terrace has been thoughtfully modernised to offer flexible family living across five bedrooms and approximately 1,670 sq ft. The ground floor opens to a double reception and a fully glazed side-return extension, creating a bright open-plan kitchen-diner with oak floors, bi-fold doors and a seamless flow to a southeast-facing garden. Underfloor heating in the bathroom and double glazing throughout add comfort and efficiency.
The first floor hosts three generous double bedrooms and a family bathroom; the top floor provides two further bedrooms, one with an ensuite, Juliet balcony and large skylights. Storage is practical with full-width eaves, and the layout suits families wanting separate reception space plus substantial bedroom provision. The house benefits from modern fittings, a Belling range cooker and quartz worktops.
Location is a genuine selling point: quiet residential Howden Street sits close to Bellenden Road’s cafés, restaurants and independent shops, with Peckham Rye Park nearby and excellent rail connections from Peckham Rye station. Several well-regarded primary and secondary schools are within easy reach, making the house suitable for school-age families.
Notable considerations are factual: the plot is small and the property provides two bathrooms for five bedrooms, which may require adaptation for larger households. The property was built circa 1900–1929 with solid brick walls and assumed no cavity insulation; buyers seeking higher thermal performance should budget for potential insulation work. Council tax and local crime statistics are above average for the area — factors to weigh alongside the location and renovation quality.
