Spacious Victorian family home with south-facing garden, cellar potential and excellent transport links in Camberwell.
Approx. 2,460 sq ft across three floors plus cellar storage
This substantial Victorian residence offers generous family living across three floors, with approximately 2,460 sq ft of internal space, five bedrooms and two bathrooms. Period features such as bay windows, high ceilings and ornate mouldings combine with practical upgrades — a newly refurbished roof and double glazing installed post-2002 — to create a comfortable, characterful home in central Camberwell.
The ground floor delivers two large reception rooms and a kitchen with direct access to a south-facing garden and separate side access to the front. The cellar provides useful storage and a viable conversion opportunity (STPP), and there is clear scope to extend into a full-width kitchen entertaining space at the rear (STPP). Chain-free sale simplifies purchase for buyers who want to move quickly.
Practical considerations are straightforward: the property sits on solid brick walls that are assumed to have no cavity insulation, council tax is described as quite expensive, and the area records above-average crime levels. Any structural changes or cellar conversion will require planning permission and building control consent.
Location is a major strength for families: Denmark Hill station is approximately 0.2 miles away, Ruskin Park and a wide choice of primary and secondary schools are within easy reach, and local independent cafés, restaurants and cultural venues add everyday convenience. The house offers a rare combination of period charm, generous proportions and further enhancement potential for buyers prepared to invest.
