Spacious family home near Peckham Rye with garden and strong transport links.
Freehold Victorian mid-terrace with four bedrooms and two bathrooms
This Victorian mid-terrace on Bellenden Road is a roomy four-bedroom freehold with 1,492 sq ft across multiple floors, suited to families wanting space and proximity to central Peckham. The house combines period bay windows and high ceilings with later open-plan living — offering immediate comfort alongside clear scope for improvement.
The location is a major strength: walking distance to Peckham Rye Station, fast broadband, excellent mobile signal, and a wide range of local amenities and schools (including several rated Good and one Outstanding). A private garden adds outdoor living space on a small plot, and mains gas central heating provides a conventional, familiar system.
Buyers should note several material issues: the area records higher crime and relative deprivation, the property’s solid-brick walls likely lack insulation, and the double glazing appears to pre-date 2002. Interiors show a mix of modern and dated finishes and will benefit from targeted refurbishment to improve energy efficiency and modern standards.
This home works well for families seeking space near transport and schools, or for buyers prepared to invest in upgrades to unlock long-term value. The freehold tenure removes leasehold complications, but factor renovation costs and neighbourhood considerations into your decision.
