THE PROPERTY

Undercliff Road is a popular road on the outskirts of the Brockley conversation area and in proximity to the highly acclaimed Hilly Fields as well as many desirable local schools.

Transport is in proximity as both Lewisham (DLR) and St Johns Stations are located approximately half a mile away.

The house is visually striking from the front featuring a front garden and square bay windows on both ground and first floors.

The house is in need of refurbishment and offers over 1420 sq ft, has three reception rooms on the ground floor along with a separate kitchen providing access to the rear garden as well as four rooms on the first floor plus the bathroom. There is also access to a loft and basement.

Outside at the rear, the private garden spans approximately 37 ft and might suit buyers wishing to reconfigure the ground floor space or build an extension to create a better connection with the outside space. The loft also offers buyer potential to extend and create additional living space.

We recommend buyers investigate what permissions are required to extend prior to purchase, however we also suggest buyers enquire about permitted development rights which may offer potential to extend without the need for planning permission.

Along the High street you will find Nandos, Primark and a selection of independent cafes and restaurants.

Alongside the shopping centre, the locality is highly acclaimed for many of its boutique shops, eating and drinking establishments.

The very enjoyable Meze Mangal is one of our local favourites and is found just moments from the property along Lewisham Way. They serve traditional grilled Turkish cuisine and the atmosphere is very pleasant.

For those who enjoy local recreation there is a variety of great things to do which include:

Enjoy the latest releases at the fantastic Goldsmiths Curzon cinema.

A local food market to tantalise your taste buds.

In addition, you can head to Lewisham's street traders for great prices on fresh produce, fish and meat, and you can hit the model market in the evening (when running) for great food, drinks and a buzzing good vibe atmosphere with great music too.

Blackheath is just a bus ride or cab journey away and offers more restaurants and bars if you fancy a social night out. Canada Water and Canary Wharf are just a short journey on the DLR and both offer lots of additional recreation, eating and drinking and social ambience.

Add the fact that Lewisham is earmarked for the Bakerloo Line extension (buyers advised to carry out their own due diligence about the viability of the Tube Line extension), and it'll very likely become one of London's most desirable South East postcode places to live in time.

Here's a bit about Lewisham as quoted by Homes and Property:

"The borough has recently been named as one of the capital's leading first-time buyer hotspots, with more than half of all homes sold in the SE13 postcode bought by people taking their first steps on the property ladder.

Lewisham's growth looks set to continue if the Bakerloo line extension goes ahead, which will improve the currently Tube-starved area further. More investment by the council and plans for new-build homes are also contributing to forecasted continued growth."

The amazing open spaces of the highly acclaimed Hilly Fields and Telegraph Hill which offer stunning views and regular community events including a farmers market and summer fayre.

Should you ever decide to venture to the adjoining towns of New Cross and Deptford, you will find more great things to enjoy in these creative, buzzing local areas.
