Property Summary

Resting at the foot of one of the Telegraph Hill Conservation Area's principal streets, this five bedroom semi-detached home is a model of timeless elegance.

Beautifully proportioned, and with a South West facing garden approaching 80', she comes to the open market for the first time in 45 years and is offered CHAIN FREE!

Parking is on street and unrestricted, and the main entrance is via the beautifully tiled porch and originally glazed front door.

Inside, we are welcomed into the hallway, with original geometric encaustic tiled floor, cornicing and corbels, and elegant high ceilings and skirting

Swing right into the main reception room, opening up to a whopping 30' long. It's light and bright, enhanced by the big front bay, glazed doors to the garden and neutral decor. The replacement timber framed double glazing keeps things quiet and toasty.
Period style includes an epic red marble fireplace, cornicing, picture rails and ceiling roses.

Back into the hallway and we descend a few stairs to the kitchen, compact and fully fitted and ready for expansion if that's your thing. Another access point to the garden from here too.

An opening draws us into a lovely big dining room with bay french doors to the garden. There's more period finery in here, including a stripped wooden floor with an outstanding patina.

Ascending to the first floor, there's a great sized double bedroom overlooking the garden, with a handy en-suite shower room. The main bathroom is next door, with a white three piece suite plus a shower cubicle.

Up again to the split level top floor where we find the huge main bedroom to the front, massively bright thanks to the bay and further sash windows, North East facing for lovely morning light. Behind is bedroom two, again a good double.
Up a few steps and we arrive at bedrooms 4, a great double overlooking the garden, & 5 - a perfect office, nursery or second bathroom.

There's a full basement with doors to the garden and street. The rear room, with toilet and large butler's sink, is the laundry. The front room is an artist's studio. Up top is a huge unconverted loft.

The rear garden is well established and cared for, with a family friendly lawn, and the side access is a huge bonus for bikes and future works etc.

Getting around is a breeze: New Cross Gate station is less than 5 mins away, for mainline trains into London Bridge in 7 mins, and Overground trains (Weekend 24 hours) connecting to, well, pretty much everywhere. There's a plethora of buses and night buses just down on New Cross Rd.
A really exciting project is the planned Bakerloo extension, which will join New Cross Gate & Lewisham to the tube network.

Local schools are a big draw to the area. Haberdashers Aske's Free Primary & Secondary, Edmund Waller Primary, and Deptford Green Secondary are all popular. Some excellent nursery options around too.

Community is a big thing on the Hill, and the hub is the Hill Station cafe which puts on great art and music events, hosts a great pizza place and is hugely popular. The parks were refurbished some years ago, thanks to the local Telegraph Hill society, and are both great spaces with a weekly food/craft market, great views over the city. There's a skate park, play area and baby/toddlers group, all community driven and led.

Another fabulous community event is the annual Telegraph Hill Festival, approaching its 30th anniversary. It's an eclectic programme of music, dance, comedy, pop up events, art and craft shows, murder mysteries and a huge musical extravaganza performed by a cast of all local talent nearing the hundreds!

Shopping wise you're minutes from Nunhead Lane, with a superb fish mongers, long established bakery, butchers and grocers, and of course the big Sainsbury's is just over the road.
