2 Ada Road, Camberwell, London, SE5 7RW Asking Price: 850,000 Late Victorian era houses don t come much prettier than this little gem, close to the greenery of Brunswick Park. It combines endearing period features with unique design touches. Up the little path in the chocolate box front garden and through the front door, you step onto American walnut flooring in the hallway, leading into the long, open-plan living space, but the first thing you notice is the cool sweeping staircase that has been redesigned to flow into the living area. Here you will find duck-egg blue walls, that attractive walnut flooring, sash windows at both front and rear and two funky column radiators. Just behind the reception there is a handy utility room and W.C with a large butler sink that was reclaimed from a school, plumbing for a washing machine, linen storage and a heated towel rail. The garden can also be accessed from here so that you can take your drying straight outside. The kitchen offers a contemporary twist on a Victorian kitchen, with free-standing units and custom-made storage, although as many of the pieces were made by the owners they will be taking them with them. This offers the opportunity to develop a kitchen that perfectly suits your taste, and subject to offer the owners are willing to negotiate some funds towards this. Behind the kitchen is a lovely study/bedroom - it s a great size and rolls out onto a pretty S.W facing garden. A contorted willow immediately draws the eye and provides privacy in the spring and summer months and a Virginia creeper frames the garden with lovely reds and oranges in the autumn; it really is a garden for all seasons. Back in the hallway and up the stairs you immediately notice the hand-stencilled trees embossed on the walls, a bespoke piece of art that comes with the house; each tree has been individually designed and the whole wood took six months to complete. Up on the first floor is the master bedroom; a whimsical painted cloudscape on the ceiling makes this a lovely room to wake up in, finished with painted floorboards and with original sash windows. A dream for many, there is a dressing room adjacent with shoe shelves and drop rails in place; it has a decidedly glamorous feel, look up to see the fur-lined ceiling. The family bathroom is a unique space and will turn every morning into an adventure; the circular shower area reminds me of showering behind a waterfall with ambient lighting and lots of little design touches around the room that make this space so much fun. Three more double bedrooms upstairs make this once cottagesized house into potentially a five bedroom house or versatile living space with multiple uses. A second bathroom is shared by the top two bedrooms with a modern shower cubicle and contemporary fittings. Ada Road sits close to the leafy, Victorian Brunswick Park with its play areas, tennis courts and community events throughout the year. You are close to Southampton Way for frequent buses to Elephant & Castle (Bakerloo and Northern lines), or walk in the other direction to the arty enclave of Peckham Road and into Camberwell for buses that will whisk you across the city and to all the major train stations. You have all kinds of café bars, restaurants and eateries to choose from in Camberwell, plus a leisure centre with pool and Saturday farmers market on Camberwell Green. It s half a mile or a ten minute walk up to Burgess Park Southwark s largest with its outdoor gym, lake, community gardens, tennis courts, table tennis tables, state-of-the-art play areas, BMX track, café and designated barbeque facilities.
