What the Owners Say.....

“I really loved living in this flat, both in my 20s and 30s and then when we returned a few years ago as a family while we did building works at our house nearby. It is in such a peaceful location, opposite the park and with no traffic, but at the same time really close to all the transport links, Herne Hill, Dulwich village and East Dulwich.

I really enjoyed the view from the living space - instead of looking at houses opposite you see trees and you can hear the ducks in Sunray Gardens. My kids loved going there while we stayed at the flat. It is also lovely to wake up in the bedroom to a view of the garden, which is south-facing and very private. I used to open the patio doors and sit in bed in the sunlight drinking my coffee.

The open plan kitchen and lounge feels spacious and was great for entertaining. I had many a birthday party and Xmas drinks at the flat! The open fire in the lounge is so cosy in winter too. Having a separate utility was very practical and the cellar was super useful for storage. I have really fond memories of living here, as have my tenants - many of them got engaged and married while living in this flat! It’s a happy place."
