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.

    • Thanks penguin  always wondered about that place and that’s way more info than I ever thought I would get  (used to live above a gun nut on friern road - he would tell me nothing)
    • There was a Saturday afternoon crowd of enthusiasts, and at other times the owner might have been off acquiring stock. He also repaired air guns, which he also sold. He stocked edged weapons, uniforms, including antique uniforms, air guns and ammo and starting pistols and shot. Some medals and other militaria. Quite a lot of ex service chit chat on a Saturday. I had an amateur interest, didn't deal a lot, in English pattern swords and other mainly 19th century militaria. And made some good purchases there. I'm afraid WWII and later events was the major focus of most of the regulars. 
    • Did anyone actually venture in to that place? I recall it always being closed/very uninviting!
    • Perry Bamonte from The Cure.. Just 65 years old.
