Back to the Old School

When it comes to developments that fit in seamlessly with their historical surroundings, St George is at the top of its class. Just look at Camberwell Grove for a lesson in luxury.

Formerly one of the finest girl’s schools of the nineteenth century, Camberwell Grove is situated in one of the capital’s most attractive conservation areas. Once the Mary Datchelor School, Camberwell Grove now offers 90 luxury properties ranging from studio apartments to four-bedroom townhouses.

For many people, the Georgian townhouse remains ideal for London living. Classical proportions, generous windows providing ample natural light to rooms with high ceilings, fine brickwork and careful detailing all create a timeless elegance.

Built using traditional London stock brick, timber sash windows and black railings to fit in perfectly with the existing Georgian houses, the townhouses at Camberwell Grove have been designed to complement the architectural heritage of the local area.

St George’s development of the site involves the sensitive restoration of two existing school buildings in addition to a number of stunning new Georgian-style two-, three- and four-bedroom townhouses that are a welcome addition.

Inside, however, you will find the highest standards of modern comfort and design, including integrated coffee machines, specialist-designed recessed lighting and wine coolers. Many of the townhouses also feature walled courtyard gardens, conservatories and private individual garage spaces below the properties.

After witnessing dramatic growth in recent years, Camberwell Grove is now home to all kinds of buyers from aspiring professionals and savvy investors to young families and retirees. Alongside local landmarks such as St Giles Church and the historic London Green, are an increasing host of fashionable new shops, bars, and restaurants all within a five-minute stroll.

Connected to central London and the City, Camberwell Grove enjoys a wide selection of transport links with nearby Denmark Hill station, providing regular fast train journeys into Victoria (five minutes), London Bridge (15 minutes) and Blackfriars (11 minutes). Peckham Rye and Loughborough Junction stations are also close by. (Times are approximate only)

Four-bedroom townhouses available from £849,950 (prices correct at time of going to press). For more info on Camberwell Grove, visit: www.camberwell-grove.co.uk or call the Sales and Marketing Suite on: 020 7708 5829.
