VENDOR’S COMMENTS:

- Location: our section of the street is amazingly friendly. We know everyone's names and we are all on a friendly WhatsApp group. There is a street party once a year. Loads of children too and ours have often done charity bake sales in the street for people en - route to the park. Many of the neighbours have been here 20 years plus. The bus stop is 50 metres away. The Lime bikes are even closer. The barrier at the end of the road makes it very quiet and safe, with beautiful park on the doorstep (2 x new playgrounds, cafe, adult, and kids' park run etc.). The Harris academy is a good neighbour too. A bit of happy noise at lunchtime, but obviously completely silent post 3.30pm, evenings, weekends, and holidays. We will have been here 11 years this summer.
- School catchment: our children attend Dulwich Hamlet Junior School, an outstanding school in Dulwich Village. Its catchment area has widened in recent years beyond the village. Some of the families in our patch are using private schools, but we are also in the catchment for Heber and Goodrich.
- Kitchen: we are very proud of the built-in larder. We had underfloor heating (water pipes heated from boiler) installed when we extended in 2019. Megaflo water tank in cellar so amazing water pressure for both showers.
- Sitting room: working, open-place fireplace which we have swept once a year and use regularly.
- Back garden: the shed was built by a carpenter for us. A bit tired-looking now but it was a wonderful play shed when the children were younger. They had fun sleeping out there in the spring of lockdown. Less fun for us... The dog has made the garden look less attractive than it might do. It would not take much to improve it. It gets sun most of the day in the summer over the top of the house and then round the side
- Loft: new in 2024. Loads of useful storage in the eaves and the huge built-in wardrobes. We got the plumber to cap off the pipes in the eaves in case anyone wanted to install a bathroom in the future. Great Juliet balcony for the summer too.
