    Needs a bit of work - looks ok until you get to pics 4 & 6 :eek: Beautiful staircase though :)

    So sad to see it as it is now, and then back in its heyday... great pity. x

    That driveway looks too narrow for any postwar car; & as for moving the dining table & rolling up the carpet before driving in each time, 100% daft! If the car is at home, isn't that the time folk will be eating in?

    What driveway? There's a parking area through double gate.

    Why would you want to put a car in the dining area? That isn't a garage! It's an extension which opens onto a patio area.

    Is that a ghostly cat next to the fireplace?

    To my ancient eyes it looks like a converted garage.
    Is fun now banned from this thread? :(
    I didn't expect anyone to take my remarks seriously.

    "Find this fab three bedroom first floor pad with balcony and oodles of storage. It's part of the High Trees estate circling off Tulse Hill and is a stone's throw from Brockwell park, Tulse Hill station and the south circular - you can't get a better location! The accommodation is well proportioned and well laid out.

    A secure phone entry system allows you to screen your gentleman callers. Inside there's a lift or stairs to whisk you upward to the flat's first floor entrance. A large L shaped hall with two recessed storage cupboards greets you. Dead ahead you find the nicely sized reception which has a dual aspect and balcony access. There's a retro brick effect mantel and wooden ceiling panelling. Your kitchen comes next off the hall. It's got a tiled floor, four ring gas hob, oven and circular stainless steel sink. The mirrored splashback is super cool! The first of your double bedrooms shares the same aspect as the previous two rooms. You'll find fitted storage here. Your next two bedrooms face the far side of the building. They'll each comfortably fit double beds. Your bathroom completes the tour.

    This is a good location just a couple of minutes from bountiful Brockwell Park with its rolling green expanse. The lido is a fab spot for a dip and there's a top notch gym too. You're within an easy walk of Tulse Hill mainline station (London Bridge and Blackfriars). Herne Hill station, offering services to Victoria and Blackfriars, is not far either. Up on Half Moon Lane you have some lovely shops and restaurants. Boozers abound too - we love the Florence and the Prince Regent. "

    They sound like a class act.....
    :huh: Don't know what I'm doing, but doing it anyway... :huh:
