Mr and Mrs Clarke thinks:
This stylish pad sits in a great location, just a stone's throw from Deptford's thriving art scene.
This stylish apartment occupies an excellent position on Arklow Road, just 15 minutes from London Bridge. The quiet, residential street sits within a thriving area of art studios, owned by students of nearby Goldsmiths University.
Mr and Mrs Clarke loves:
The amount of natural light that floods in from the large windows.
Sitting on the top floor of the five-storey building, this sleek apartment benefits from stunning views over the London skyline and truly sets the standard for city living. Designed by innovate property developer Pocket Living alongside award-winning architects, this home was created with efficiency and style in mind by balancing craft and functionality. Pocket Living homes are designed for city makers, the people who make our city tick. They are the people who leave their mark on London and embrace the city - the vibrant urban lifestyle, culture, characters and best kept secrets. We provide city makers with a home, on the doorstep of the city that they love.
The apartment is accessed via a decked terrace, that offers views over to Central London, and enters into an open-plan kitchen, living space and dining room. Bathed in natural light from the double faced windows at either end, the space also features an office nook and built in storage that cleverly utilises every available space in the home. The modern kitchen is just three years old and comes complete with a built-in fridge freezer, dishwasher, induction hob and AEG oven. The charming ‘winter garden' is accessed through the living room, with large glass panels flooding the room with natural light, making a wonderful reading room or yoga space.
There are two light bedrooms off the main living area, one of which has a spacious en-suite bathroom with a bath. The main bathroom is fully tiled and has a luxurious walk-in shower, with both bathrooms benefiting from under floor heating. The entire home also features under floor heating, though the low service charges and running costs of the home mean the current owners only need to use the heating a couple of weeks out the year. Outside, there is bike storage and a communal garden, as well as a lovely decked terrace to the front where the current owners love to sit out and enjoy their morning coffee whilst soaking up the views of London. Arklow Road is filled to the brim with unique architectural quirks and modern style and makes a wonderful home for a young couple or business professionals wanting great access to the city and independent bars and restaurants.

Glowing Greenwich & Hip Deptford
Local Life in this beautiful area
With a thriving art scene, the increasingly popular Deptford is also a real hub for independent shops, restaurants and cafes. Start at the top of Deptford Market and work your way down to the river, stopping for a light bite and coffee at Stockton. Then head to Deptford Yard and enjoy a diverse offering of eateries from up and coming foodie entrepreneurs. Next, have a quick pint at the Tap Room or the Villages Brewery before you tackle one of Little Nan’s cocktails, without doubt one of the most eccentric and unique places in South East London! Looking for an exceptional sit-down meal perfect for impressing friends and family? Try Marcella, sister restaurant of Artusi Peckham.
For a Sunday walk, take a stroll through the famous Greenwich Park and admire the city skyline before using the Victorian engineering feat that is the Greenwich foot tunnel to head North of the river for lunch at The Narrow by Gordon Ramsay. After such a hectic weekend, why not finish with a rest and watch a film at the boutique Greenwich Picture House.
