This airy loft apartment sits at the top of a charming Grade II Georgian building in Camberwell. There are plenty of bars and restaurants in the area, and Denmark Hill station is a seven-minute walk away, whisking you into the centre of London in less than ten minutes. The apartment boasts a beautiful cathedral ceiling in whitewash wood giving an immense sense of space. The original floorboards are on display and a fireplace sits at the heart of the living room. Floor to ceiling shelves displays a curated collection of trinkets and pot plants and a grandfather clock ticks in the corner. The kitchen has been thoughtfully designed with a tall wine rack and in-built shelves laden with pretty willow-pattern crockery. A steep staircase leads to the rooftop terrace where chairs and tables await on the decking, overlooking the leafy streets towards the jutting spire of a church – the perfect spot for a sundowner.
