Light, compact and characterful, this top-floor Victorian conversion offers a practical two-double-bedroom home in the heart of East Dulwich. At 531 sqft it’s an efficient layout for a first home or buy-to-let, with contemporary finishes throughout and period features on the exterior that add kerb appeal. The property is chain free and sold as a share of freehold, simplifying the purchase for buyers seeking a quick move.
Location is a major strength: Lordship Lane’s cafés, restaurants and independent shops are a short walk away, while Dulwich Park and Goose Green provide easy access to green space. East Dulwich station is about 12 minutes’ walk with direct trains to London Bridge; Forest Hill and Denmark Hill stations are also within reach, making commuting straightforward.
Practical points to note: the building dates from 1900–1929 with solid brick walls and no known cavity insulation, so heating bills could be higher than a modern build. The flat has one bathroom and is top-floor accessed by stairs, which may not suit everyone. Double glazing is present but the installation date is unknown; buyers should factor in potential maintenance or upgrade costs.
Overall this is a well-presented, small two-bedroom flat that will suit first-time buyers who value location and character, or investors seeking a centrally placed rental in a highly sought-after Dulwich pocket.
