This comfortable entertaining area has concertina doors which allow the living space to flow seamlessly into the pièce de résistance, a seventy-five foot West facing garden.

Tulse Hill area highlights

Perfectly placed between Streatham, Dulwich, Brixton and the up and coming West Norwood, this area is one of the hidden gems of London. It will soon find itself on the move with its proximity to Brockwell Park, its larger than average Victorian housing stock and its transport links to central London. Brockwell park being on the doorstep cannot be underestimated in terms of lifestyle value, from its amazing views over the city to its beautiful hills and grand trees to its tennis courts, the universally lauded Lido spa complex, regular events, great pubs that border it and community gardens (and spirit). The high streets of West Norwood and West Dulwich are just minutes away too.
