A low rise development of urban apartments for the young professional looking for the leafy, village-feel of East Dulwich with its (still) buzzing bars, coffee shops, restaurants and independent artisan shops. A biscotti's throw from Dulwich Park and Peckham Rye, the perfect place to chill on a hot summer afternoon (no barbecues though).

1, 2 and 3 (penthouse) bedroom light 'n' airy units that tick all the boxes with balconies just big enough for a B&Q table and two chairs. Ideal for that lazy Sunday morning when you want catch up on the papers whilst sipping your nespresso from your IKEA mugs and munching a croissant bought from the Tesco Metro on the ground floor. You pretend to ignore the people on the top deck of the 176/185/40 rolling by, instead looking back inside your precious abode and admiring the Mrs Robinson lampshade your parents bought you as a moving in present.


2022

You add to the thread on the local forum about house prices, complaining the East Dulwich ain't what it used to be. Anyway now that sprog number one is on the way it's time to head east for cheaper climes. Thamesmead has come on a lot recently and you can afford a decent sized 3 bedder for less than seven figures. Hey and did you know they filmed A Clockwork Orange here ? You won't be sorry to leave East Dulwich, the buzz you bought into has gone and ever since Costa moved in and the Dave butcher sold his shop to the Waitrose Meat Outlet, things aren't the same here any more.

    • Someone had a worse day than you. Be grateful not to be involved.
    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can.
