About the home

The apartment is in the most prestigious area of historic Crystal Palace. The house is one of the oldest and most striking in the Crystal Palace area and can be seen in the impressionist painting of Pissarro (called Fox Hill). At the highest point in south London, the apartment has views over south London.
Leafy green walks are close by yet frequent trains take 15-25 min into the city centre for museums, clubs, and shows.
Crystal Palace park with its famous Victorian dinosaurs is 5 min walk. The park houses the National Sports Centre for tennis, swimming, squash etc.
Crystal Palace is popular with artists and has many excellent restaurants serving food from all over the world (Thai, Spanish, Indian, Chinese, French, Portuguese etc.).

The South East England / Greater London region

South East England offers access to field and forest (eg the famous Winnie The Pooh Ashdown Forest) and a slice of history (Leeds Castle and Hastings where Normans and Saxons slugged it out) yet central London is only 25 mins away with its famous historical and theatrical landscape.

The South-East London / Crystal Palace area

Eating out in Crystal Palace is a must with excellent food from all regions of the globe. Crystal Palace park is the place to work up an apetite or for the more sedate, antique hunting is always good fun.
