Cranbrook Road, St Johns, London

Beautiful Victorian terraced home over three full floors with four bedrooms and a generous part-walled rear garden, really near St John's Station, Brookmill Park, Friendly Gardens and Brockley Market (each Saturday). The current owners have overseen a sensitive and impressive refurbishment. This included a full re-wire, new heating system, boiler, pipework and radiators, and external decoration, repointing and window repairs to boot.

Find your new pad on a quiet residential street in the exclusive St John’s Conservation Area, which adjoins Brookmill CA. This is a really friendly community to call yours, with an annual summer street party (with live music!) on nearby Ashmead Road: "Ashfest".

In your yellow front door and your bright sash-windowed, eat-in kitchen rests to your right. This is over 11 feet by over 9 feet, with neat modern fitted units on two walls, teamed with wooden worktops.

Your reception room delivers delightful garden views and of course your access to the garden, via bang-on-trend industrial-style doors. This room is 12 feet each way and has an opened-up fireplace/exposed-brick detail. Bespoke built-in storage is a joy to behold (useful, too!) to both alcoves. A vertical column radiator is a nice decision, and under-stairs storage is easily accessed.

Your first floor hosts a front double bedroom of over 12 feet by over 9 feet, a classy bathroom (with modern white sanitary-ware and monochrome detailing) and a rear single bedroom of over 12 feet by nearly 7 feet. The latter is currently enjoyed as a combined dressing room and home office (with a view!), fitted out with extensive excellent custom-made storage.

On the second floor you have another front double bedroom, of over 9 feet by nearly 13 feet, and a fourth and final bedroom/loft room of 13 feet by nearly 13 feet (please note restricted head height to some of the room), with lots of handy storage space into the eaves.

Stroll all of four minutes to St John’s Station (Zone 2). Or walk 15 to either Elverson Road or Deptford Bridge DLR stations. Blackheath, Greenwich, New Cross and Lewisham are all easily walkable.

Your local primary schools include St Stephen’s, Ashmead, Myatt Garden and Lucas Grove (3-11). For secondary phase, local families use Deptford Green, Addey & Stanhope, and Hatcham College (11-18).

A little bit of a secret this area… but not for very long! An extremely well-connected patch. The stuff of driving lessons: leafy sleepy back streets within easy walking distance of excellent transport links, shops, cafes and parks. Middleton is your closest cafe, with yummy fresh sourdough loaves beckoning you from the window (from Paul Rhodes Bakery).

Of an evening or weekend, The Brookmill Pub and Kitchen is a local favourite, with nice garden. The Talbot is also a good and popular spot.

You are about a mile from The Maritime Greenwich UNESCO World Heritage Site – comprising the historic town centre, the beautiful Royal Park and the related institutional buildings. The Royal Observatory is a must-go-to and the views from up here at the top of the park, looking onto The Thames and beyond, are really something.

Friendly Gardens and Brookmill Park are your closest green spaces. The latter is a five acre linear park running alongside the tidal River Ravensbourne (which becomes a tributary to the Thames less than a mile away). The park sustains an exceptionally rich and impressive variety of birdlife with kingfishers, herons, egrets, moorhens, coots, mallard, wagtails, goldfinches, long-tailed tits, migratory visitors and more. It is also home to around 8 pairs of pipistrelle bats and is currently being managed to enhance green corridors. Two nature reserves adjoin the park.

Deptford High Street and Market Yard area are notably hip local areas. Here we like Salt, Tea House, Marcella, Jazu and Deli X to name a few.

Brockley Market, on Lewisham Way, next to Lewisham College is a top way to spend Saturday time (on from 10am through to 2pm) for elite groceries plus cute street food vans.

Greenwich Picturehouse is also a short walk away. And don’t miss your local contemporary art gallery: Goldsmiths CCA.
