This split-level top-floor conversion occupies the upper two floors of a handsome Victorian terrace and delivers bright, well-proportioned rooms across 1,009 sq ft. The layout offers two large double bedrooms, two bathrooms and a generous open-plan living room with a modern fitted kitchen — all presented with tasteful finishes and plenty of natural light.
The standout is the large roof terrace which soaks up morning and early afternoon sun and provides far-reaching views toward Canary Wharf — ideal for entertaining or quiet outdoor time. Practical benefits include a share of freehold, an extremely long lease (991 years), double glazing and chain-free sale for an uncomplicated purchase.
Be clear about the trade-offs: the building is a traditional solid-brick Victorian structure with assumed no wall insulation, so heating costs may be higher than a modern build despite efficient gas central heating. The local area records above-average crime and pockets of deprivation, balanced by excellent transport links (Peckham Rye and Denmark Hill nearby), fast broadband and a thriving local high street of cafes and amenities.
This home suits first-time buyers or investors seeking a turnkey period conversion with strong rental and resale appeal in SE15. It also offers scope for further improvement (thermal upgrades, cosmetic tweaks) if you want to add value over time.
