3 Bed Flat For Sale Overhill Road, London, SE22

This extremely spacious, split level, three bedroom, two bathroom apartment is to be found on the ground and first floors of Ladlands, towards the southern end of Overhill Road. The location is very peaceful and yet within striking distance of several local high streets. \r

Ladlands is one of two buildings in Dawson's Heights, an exceptionally well maintained, large social housing development, which was designed in a modernist style by Kate Macintosh and built between 1964 and 1972. English Heritage described the estate as having \"a striking and original massing that possesses evocative associations with ancient cities and Italian Hill Towns\". There is also a small nature reserve to the north of the buildings, managed by the Dawson's Hill Trust. \r
\r
Both East Dulwich railway station (which provides direct services into London Bridge (c.13 mins)) and Forest Hill station (where you will find direct trains to Victoria and King's Cross stations and access to the London Overground with connections to the tube services to Canary Wharf) are within a ten to fifteen minute bus ride along Lordship Lane on bus routes that can, alternatively, take you directly to Victoria, Waterloo and London Bridge. \r
\r
There is a small convenience close by on Overhill Road and from the southern end of Lordship Lane, which is a few minutes on foot from the property, you can pick up buses heading in the direction of both Forest Hill and East Dulwich. In East Dulwich you have access to the many restaurants, bars and independent shops to be found on Lordship Lane, one of south east London's best high streets. The weekly North Cross Road market is another easily accessible resource as is the East Dulwich Picturehouse cinema. \r
