Description
A beautiful, open plan, spacious one-bedroom flat. Set on the ground floor of Number 12 Church Grove, with adjoining large terrace, the flat has highly insulated walls, and all windows are triple glazed. This makes it a cosy home, cheap to heat,
quiet and peaceful, even though it is very close to an extraordinary array of amenities and transport links.
Communal areas include the Hub, where regular meetings, social events and other gatherings are held. The laundry is accessible to all and very inexpensive - far cheaper in fact than buying your own washing and/or drying machine. Above the laundry is the office, where there are two desks, a printer, wi-fi and two large windows looking out over the luscious garden and streetscape that includes the picturesque Street of Victorian houses leading up to Number 12 Church Grove. There is also a spacious and beautiful bike shed with room for all, plus two bike lock-ups.
One of the best things about 12 Church Grove is the sense of community it fosters. There is a very wide range in the ages of residents, and much inter-generational mixing. The children can safely and freely interact with others of their own age and with the adults who live nearby, to the benefit of all.
The glorious gardens and balconies are adorned with flourishing trees, bushes, and a wide range of flowers, fruits and vegetables growing in the raised beds and hanging baskets, all tended by residents and other volunteers.
Church Grove is just 3 minutes' walk from Ladywell train station. The lovely park, Ladywell Fields, is even nearer, and Lewisham High St is around the corner. There are a dozen bus routes within a few minutes' walk, and shops, cafes and pubs aplenty within five or ten minutes' walk.
