Summary - 36 CAMBERWELL GROVE CAMBERWELL LONDON SE5 8RE
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Spacious family home with garden, parking and excellent transport links.
Double-fronted Georgian with original mantelpieces and cornicing preserved
A double-fronted Grade II listed Georgian house on Camberwell Grove, freshly renovated yet retaining original period features. The size and layout — three reception rooms, four double bedrooms and generous storage — suit families seeking space within Zone 2 London, with the benefit of off-street parking and a south-west facing garden. High ceilings, arched sash windows, fireplaces and detailed cornicing give the home strong character and immediate kerb appeal.
Practical strengths include a contemporary kitchen and bathrooms, mains gas central heating, chain-free freehold ownership and excellent transport links via Denmark Hill and local Overground services. The property’s 2,059 sq ft footprint and decent plot offer scope for comfortable living and entertaining across multiple floors, with a handy study/utility and significant crawl storage.
Important constraints are factual and should influence buying decisions: the listed status (Grade II) will complicate and restrict alterations and repairs; the building's solid brick construction means limited original insulation; and council tax is high. The local area records higher-than-average crime, which prospective buyers should weigh alongside the many neighbourhood amenities and good nearby schools.
Overall, this is a ready-to-live-in historic home that balances sympathetic modern upgrades with intact Georgian charm. It will particularly suit buyers who value architectural character, space and transport convenience, and who are comfortable owning a listed property with the attendant constraints and maintenance responsibilities.
