2 bedroom flat

Large two-bedroom apartment with stunning long-distance views from the Kent coast, across to the City and St. Paul's Cathedral, including Canary Wharf, set within an attractive 60's building. With the added bonus of a garage, free residents parking, and outside communal grounds in a private estate, the building benefits from a new lift installed last year.

This brightly-lit, large-windowed, two-bed apartment is set in Little Brownings, off Sydenham Rise, within 10 minutes' walk to Forest Hill station and Dulwich Park. On the 7th floor, the flat comprises two large double bedrooms with ample built-in storage and external views on all four sides, whilst also remaining private. The lounge is a real show stopper - measuring over 16 feet by 21 feet. Following the complete refurbishment of the flat in 2012 (including electrics, flooring & insulation, new bathroom, kitchen) more built-in storage, shelving and a large-size TV and media space were added. The hidden shoe cupboard is a great bonus, along with a dryer cupboard and a long coat-rail and storage in the enclosed entrance hall. The fitted kitchen is very modern and features a pantry. Both the bedrooms are large doubles, with the rear bedroom featuring stunning Surrey Down views.

There is a strong sense of community in Frobisher Court - it has a well-run Residents Association. Additional bonuses include the large garage to the rear, residents' parking bays just outside the block, and free residents' parking around the private estate.

Perfectly situated for access to outdoor space to the North, South, and West, all of which is different (Dulwich Park, Peckham Rye, Crystal Palace Park, etc) with Dulwich Woods and the Horniman Museum and gardens less than five minutes away; a new outdoor café has just opened at the bottom of Sydenham Rise and there is a farmers’ market in the Horniman grounds at weekends. Crystal Palace and Lordship Lane are both accessible for shops via leafy walks to get there; Forest Hill has a Sainsbury’s less than 10 minutes away, to supplement the Tesco convenience store next to the Horniman, meaning that basic food shopping can be done on foot.

Just outside the ULEZ zone, there has never been any problem with parking outside Frobisher Court, making this a very secure location to drive back to late at night, with no parking fees or permits. There is also private roadway access to the flat's garage.

The 356 bus stops just outside Little Brownings; From Forest Hill station, the Overground and train services have continued to run during recent tube strikes. London Bridge is 15 minutes away; journeys to work via Green Park take 45 minutes door-to-door; the City and Canary Wharf much less. For west London, free parking at West Dulwich provides a 10-minute train trip to Victoria, and Gatwick Airport is an easy half an hour's train-ride south via East Croydon.
