House now let for this period. It will become available again later in 2023 and in 2024


Hello!


We are offering our fully furnished 3 bedroom house on the border of East Dulwich and Honor Oak for short term lets between January and June 2023.


We are on the hill with stunning views over London, 8 minutes walk from Honor Oak Park station, very close to lots of useful buses, 63, 363, P4 P12 P13 and not far from 176 and 185 etc . Very green, family orientated area, 5 minutes from One Tree hill and Brenchley Gdns, 10 minutes stroll to the Horniman and Peckham Rye Park, 20 minutes to Dulwich park and Lordship Lane. Local shops, cafes and bars within a short walk. In the catchment area for highly Ofsted-rated primary schools, Fairlawn School and St Francesca Cabrini School and close to Horniman School too.


The house is recently renovated with two large doubles and a smaller bedroom, on the first floor. The first bedroom is the largest, with a double bed and a new sofa chair, that makes a comfortable single bed when folded out. This bedroom could sleep three. The second bedroom has a king size bed and even more wonderful views of the enormous skies over London. The smaller bedroom is currently used as an office, but also comfortably houses a double sofa bed and makes a delightful guest room. The family bathroom has a large double-ended bath and a brand new separate shower. The toilet is next door to the bathroom, and has its own basin. The house could sleep up to 7 people.


The ground floor is raised at the rear (we are built into the hillside) and the extraordinary views from the kitchen/dining room over our 90 ft garden and the trees of the neighbourhood to London are spectacular. The kitchen is sleek and modern and ideally designed for those who love to cook. There's a balcony extending from the huge sliding glass doors and then steps down to the garden: the terrace with a dining table and swing seat, then a lawn, flower borders, pergola and a lower garden with trampoline (and compost corner!).


The sitting room, with its log burner, a 4 seater velvet sofa, a big squishy 3 seater and comfy armchair, TV etc, can be closed off or opened to the dining room by way of ingenious sliding bookcase doors. Wooden floors throughout and underfloor heating. There's an office on the ground floor, which doubles as a cloakroom, with lots of storage cubbies, pegs for coats and racks for shoes. A clothes airer hangs above. Through the office you descend to the utililty room - washing machine, tumble dryer, freezer, extra fridge, more storage - and cellar/workshop, which opens onto the garden at this level . There's also a sweet 'garden loo' down here, very handy when entertaining in the garden...


I am going to be putting the property on Air BnB and will be offering short lets of a minimum of 2 weeks, but our preference is to let it for all or some of the period, perhaps to someone, or a couple or family, while they are undergoing renovations to their own property, or while they find a permanent base in the area. We can be fairly flexible about timing.


Please contact me for photos, any questions you may have, and to discuss your plans and our terms. I have some amateur, candid photos to share but not top quality ones yet!


Cheers. Thanks for reading.

    • The coop of Forest Hill Road is very different- cheerful and helpful staff 
    • Would you expose your young people to 'that man'? That is apparently a real question. 'That man' is in fact a retired Oxford Professor of Moral & Pastoral Theology who wrote a book setting out to provide a moral reckoning on the vexed subject of Britain's Empire and its history. What might formerly have been a purely academic matter has become highly contentious, and according to one Cambridge academic "serious shit" that needed to be CLOSED DOWN. It's all rather amazing, the stuff of satire or nightmare but not of the real world. Anyway, Lord Biggar accepted an invitation to visit Peckham and speak to and with a small audience that was due to include young Black students ... who in the end didn't come on the day! Having set the whole thing up to facilitate this encounter for them, the outcome was a disappointment. The conversation with Lord Biggar and audience was not:   
    • Entertaining a visitor from Philippines, she's been here before but I've promised lunch.  Somewhere a little different maybe, quirky?
    • Surely a very simple: "how much does the council receive from the organisers of the Gala festival for payment for use of Peckham Rye" would smoke out a response. The "commercial sensitivity" could be because the council are giving it away or it could be because Gala don't want others to know how much they are paying - it is really tough to make money from any type of festival these days and Wide Awake in Brockwell, for example, sent out a plea for people to buy tickets via a reduced price "Tell a Friend" special offer because (they said much of it linked to the problems Lambeth were having with the High Court) things were entering "squeaky bum time"  and they were struggling to hit their break-even point. It does make me wonder whether expansion is baked-in to the agreements the council has with the organisers for events like Gala as the organisers have to be able to scale the size of the event each year to try to make money. I do also how much of the "revenue" from these events might be swallowed up by the provision of the "free community" event element of them. The comment piece in the Guardian sums it up quite nicely: The heart of this issue seems to be how cash-strapped councils are becoming increasingly beholden to commercial interests to the detriment of the public. A weekend festival that welcomes 50,000 people can expect to raise about £500,000 for local authorities. Councils argue that this money goes back in the public purse, allowing them to continue funding free community events such as Lambeth’s beloved Country Show, though there doesn’t seem to be much transparency over exactly how much cash is raised or where it is allocated.   The issue for councils may well be that if people found out how much was actually being raised by these events that the community would say the disruption is not worth it and I do wonder how much of the revenue is being swallowed up by the provision of the "free event" using the same infrastructure. Any time a council doesn't want to share something openly very much suggests that it is because they think constituents won't like the answer.
