Charlton Church Lane, Charlton

Set along the storied stretch of Charlton Church Lane — a road whose roots run back nearly a thousand years — this newly refurbished 2-bedroom duplex offers a rare blend of modern living and rich local heritage. Steps from St Luke’s Church, first founded in 1077 and still the architectural anchor of the neighbourhood, the home sits within an area shaped by centuries of village life, red-brick craftsmanship, and the gentle rise of Charlton’s historic hillside. The apartment is arranged across two levels. On the lower-ground floor, a contemporary reception room opens directly onto your private garden — an unusually generous outdoor space for this pocket of SE7 and a peaceful retreat deeply tied to the traditional greenery that once surrounded the ancient church. A sleek, newly fitted bathroom completes this level. Upstairs, the two bedrooms are calm and inviting, refurbished with a clean, modern design that contrasts beautifully with the character of the building and the history of the lane. It’s a home that balances the old and the new. For buyers seeking a story-rich setting with the ease of modern living — and the added luxury of a private garden — this duplex on Charlton Church Lane offers something genuinely special. A place where history frames the neighbourhood, and thoughtful design defines the home.
