EDF fantasy homes

[bigbadwolf]

Right you lot, is there a property or road in east Dulwich or surrounding areas that you would like to live in or would really like to see inside. I live in Forest hill, you know, the place with far more superior views than east Dulwich. Anyway for me it would have to be Liphook cresent in fozzy hill but I'd love to have a legal shufty round some of the village properties.

P.s Can those of you in Peckham and Nunhead try not to get too grabby and fanciful in your choices, thanks.

Tappen House on Dulwich Common or the one on the corner by the crossroads with the stables.

There's a huge house on half moon lane... it's on a corner, possibly at the junction with Ardbeg Road. It looks real nice!

[jaybee82]

Be careful people...it was intrigue like this that caused me to get my head stuck in someone's cat flap.

Aaah. My crowning glory.

[Kells]

I want the one by Gallery Road, it's kind of cream coloured, with green shutters. Don't know why, I just fell in love with it.

I'd love to live in St John's Woodhouse. Any millionaires out there to come save me?!:))

[Asset]

The big Georgian one on Village Way/Pondmead. Huge conservatory.

[Marmora Man]

I like my own home with a view from my "study" aka as the back bedroom.

[Keef]

I always liked some of the houses overlooking Peckham Rye, although they are all no doubt divided in to flats now.

[Moos]

I know what you mean, MM, our view is good too.

I think my ED fantasy house would be one of the ones in the Gardens, although they are ridiculously large for one family.

[david_carnell]

I quite like the detached villa opposite the herne tavern. 'Twas on the market recently for some outrageous price. And like Moos a whole house in the Gardens would be lovely.

There is a lovely one overlooking Peckham Rye just down from the Barry Road junction. Its not the largest, but just always looks so appealing. I'm saving for it now - target date, July 2087.

[citizenED]

"Post Office Tower" Marmora Man - showing your age there! But then, that's what I call it too.

[Sue]

Any house overlooking the woods :)

Or the concrete house before it became derelict and before that monstrosity was built next to it (6)

[Mick Mac]

Any house on Eynella Road would be good for me. Even walking past them is nice.

Ooh, Citizen, do you mean the pretty grey one? Fight you for it! :)

There are some lovely big houses on Colyton Rd that I would love to look inside, one in particular that's been refurbished recently - I see them daily as I walk into Peckham Rye Park. Also the big detached place opposite the Herne, although not sure about the location.

There are some gorgeous houses in Dulwich Village, but I much prefer living in ED!

Not all of them................

When I come out of Dulwich Park at Old College Gate, having burst my lungs running like an Olympic Champion, I see those big imposing houses just up from the mini-roundabout, and bet they are fully equipped with all the pleasures to aid recovery starting with a steam bath..

[Ted Max]

I've been getting a good look at most of my fantasy homes in the area by peeking through letterboxes. I'm stunned how few hallways have both original flooring and cornicing retained. I think the owners are ashamed too because they rarely seem pleased by my interest.

[Moos]

That was you??

Sorry about your nose, btw.

[bigbadwolf]

Shocking isn't it Ted? One cheeky git wouldn't even lend us a tenner for petrol.

[Ted Max]

My findings on the areas hallways are:

Farrow 'n' Ball Georgian Duck Egg has been usurped recently by Designer's Guild Aged Sage for the walls.

Antique white still very much in vogue for woodwork and any decorative plasterwork.

Granny's coat and umbrella stand gets an outing in most 499k+ properties. At ?650+ her mirror over occasional table set comes out of storage as well. Those people that have to buy their own furniture usually invest in one of those distressed white mirrors from Northcross road, at this point.

Sub 420k it's IKEA coathooks leaning out of the crumbling plasterwork under the strain of a family's worth of winter clothing.

Occasionally complimented with a Victorian era Elephant tusk.

Yes Moos, that's the one - but I don't fight girls so I claim it since I bagsed it first. But then,actually I don't fight boys either, not my cup of tea, so if you want it, it's yours. I'll just look on wistfully as you and yours sip Earl Grey in the Drawing Room.

[Cassius]

I'd quite like to see inside Jenny Eclairs RIBA winning house on Denmark Hill - looked good on the telly.
