Sellers Comments: “We’ve had nearly five amazing years living on Moncrieff Street. We love cooking big dinners for friends - the kitchen/ diner is perfect for having lots of people over. And there’s enough space they can even stay over! We’ve also loved planting up the garden, throwing barbecues and slowly decorating room by room. When we’re not in the house, we love going to franks for drinks and views over the city, for films at peckhamplex and to lots of nice restaurants and bars such as forza wine, levan and the prince of Peckham. Even though the house is tucked away on a backstreet, you’re only a stone’s throw away from everything Peckham has to offer.” This is a unique opportunity to acquire a quite superb family home and viewing is highly advised.
