4 Bed Terraced House, Shenley Rd, SE5 8NN

We are delighted to offer this spacious, nearly 1,500 sqft, 4 double-bedroom period terrace, built over three floors. Located at the end of the quiet and charming Sansom Street (which ends as a cul-de-sac), this property is within minutes of the restaurants and pubs on Peckham Road (such as The Camberwell Arms, Fortsa Win, etc.) and the pubs on Camberwell Grove.

This property is an absolute gem, offering not only a quiet location in the heart of Camberwell but also thoughtfully designed interiors and a delightful period aesthetic. Additionally, it has been insulated to the highest standard, providing a warm and cost-efficient home. The care put into the house extends to the charming and extensive garden and patio areas, perfect for elegant and discreet outdoor entertaining.

The property has a spacious feel, with generous kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom areas. Each room also benefits from extensive, highly practical custom-made storage crafted from quality materials throughout the house. There is very little in this home that feels "IKEA"; the craftsmanship is evident. Unusually, this house has recently been refurbished to comply with regulations for sharers.

HMO Upgrades:

This period property has been upgraded to comply with HMO regulations, making it ideal for younger professional sharers. It features period-style fire doors and closers, smoke alarms in all rooms, CO2 alarms, and more. These upgrades have been implemented sympathetically to preserve the house's period character. As such, this is a rare find for groups of friends looking to share.

Lounge:

The spacious lounge boasts a charming east-facing bay window that fills with morning light. The room features period storage cupboards, two large Georgian settees, and a period armchair, all recently restored and re-upholstered. An original fireplace with a working coal-effect gas fire adds a cozy touch. A tasteful sisal rug and runner complement the period aesthetic. The dimensions of this room are generously comfortable.

Kitchen & Dining Area:

The kitchen area includes a wide, long galley kitchen with approximately 5 meters of worktop space on each side, providing an ideal prep area for serious cooks. The kitchen is equipped with a 6-burner gas range cooker, a large Miele family fridge, a Miele washing machine, and a separate dryer. There is also a practical double sink with a Grohe flexible chef's tap and a new Bosch dishwasher. This generous kitchen has ample space for three or more people to enjoy cooking together.

The dining area features a large table that comfortably seats 8 or more, illuminated by stunning dimmable period lighting that sets the perfect dinner party atmosphere. Two separate doors lead to the rear and side gardens, bringing the outdoors in on a warm summer's evening. Above the dining area, the ceiling has been raised to match the pitched roof, with two large Velux windows added to flood the room with afternoon sunlight. This room is bright and airy during the day and atmospheric at night.

Additionally, a conveniently located understairs loo is positioned just off the kitchen and dining area.

Bedroom No. 1 (Master Bedroom):

The current owners fell in love with this room upon purchasing the property. It features two large period sash windows facing east, allowing morning sunlight to pour in during the summer months. On each side of the original fireplace, there are medium-sized period storage cupboards. Opposite the fireplace, you'll find a full-width super-large, fitted wardrobe with additional box storage on top. The original sash windows have been fully refurbished. This spacious room also accommodates a large desk, chair, and armchair.

Bedrooms No. 2 & 3:

These two identical rooms are located on the ground and first floors. Each room features a period fireplace with two 2-meter-high wardrobes on either side, providing ample storage space with box storage on top. Both rooms comfortably fit a double bed and offer enough space for a desk and chair. Each room has a large west-facing double-glazed sash window, letting in plenty of afternoon sunlight. Bedroom No. 2 (on the ground floor) also includes a coal-effect gas fire for added coziness.

Bedroom No. 4 (Large Loft with Ensuite Bathroom):

This large loft room, approximately 25 sqm, has more than enough space for a double bed, fitted wardrobe, bookcases, desk, and settee or armchairs. There are four good-sized windows, including two Velux windows facing east and two double-glazed sash windows facing west. As with the rest of the house, this room is bathed in natural light during the day. It also has a walk-in wardrobe and additional storage cupboard, making it incredibly practical.

The Front & Rear Garden Areas:

The property features two delightful rear garden areas. The first is a triangular garden area nestled to the side of the house, with a wide reclaimed York Stone patio overlooking a magnificent Magnolia tree that blooms beautifully and smells delightful. The second, larger garden at the rear includes a spacious York Stone patio area with a table and chairs, surrounded by mature trees.

A secure gate at the rear of the gardens provides access to the street by bike, with security devices available for locking bikes securely in the garden. Bikes should not be stored within the house due to potential damage to carpets and walls.

In addition to the rear gardens, the house has a generously proportioned front garden with attractive planting, offering a relatively discrete spot for the bins provided by Southwark Council.
