1 Bedroom Apartment, Lansdowne Place, London, SE19

Nestled quite literally in the heart of the renowned Crystal Palace Triangle, this beautiful one-bedroom apartment is a true gem. Situated in a stunning period conversion, this ground-floor flat offers the perfect blend of modern luxury and classic charm.

Location is everything and few central Triangle locations can offer the peace and quiet of Lansdowne Place. Once forming the parish boundary, it’s tucked away just behind Church Rd and puts everything the Triangle has to offer on your doorstep (except for the noise and traffic!), it truly is a premier location that puts the immense lifestyle benefits of Crystal Palace on your doorstep.

The flat is located on the ground floor of a stunning Victorian coach-house-style building, which is incredibly charming. The flat benefits from its features, such as the living rooms’ stunning windows, ceiling height and beautiful cornicing. The flat has wood floors throughout and high-quality double-glazed sash windows, which are worth a special mention, they create a bright and airy atmosphere and provide energy efficiency whilst retaining that highly desirable period charm (which is also helped by the original wooden shutters, which are simply gorgeous!).

The reception and kitchen are semi-open plan to each other, which makes for an ideal space in which to entertain, being able to cook for your guests whilst being amongst the conversation will be a real benefit for most buyers. The kitchen is really nicely finished with wood tops and tiled splash backs, there’s a gas hob which the keen cooks among us will appreciate and storage is plentiful.

The spacious bedroom offers a peaceful retreat, being at the rear of the flat, it also has high ceilings and plenty of space for wardrobes and also a desk area if needed, there’s another high quality double glazed sash window which helps keep the flat super cosy and the energy bills in check!

The bathroom is a cool and quirky space, there’s a shower over a full size bath and the toilet is tucked away, and the tiled floor and walls give the bathroom a quality feel.

Location-wise, the flat is ideally located seconds away from the vibrant Crystal Palace Triangle, offering an array of trendy cafes, great coffee shops, commendable restaurants, boutiques, galleries, and vintage furniture shops. Seconds away on Church Road, there’s an Everyman Cinema, a yoga school and one of the best coffee shops in the area in “Four Boroughs”.

There’s a strong local community based around the triangle and a distinctly arty & creative vibe, which is reflected in the local businesses; most are independent, which locals are rightfully proud of. An example of this is the Haynes Lane market, operating on Saturdays; it offers the best fresh produce, including cheese, bread, meats and vegetarian options; it is well worth the short stroll on a Saturday morning!

Crystal Palace is of course renowned for its leafy streets and green spaces, including the stunning Crystal Palace Park, which provides an idyllic setting for outdoor activities and leisurely strolls, it spans 200 acres, which will help you while away the weekends and offers plenty of space to exercise, not to mention the renowned Grade II listed Crystal Palace Dinosaurs which date back to the 1850s.
