Camberwell (/ˈkæmbərˌwɛl/) is a district of South London, England, within the London Borough of Southwark. It is located 2.7 miles (4.3 km) southeast of Charing Cross. The name Camberwell was first applied to the Parish of St Giles, Camberwell, which included the village of Camberwell, and the hamlets of Peckham, Dulwich, Nunhead, and part of Herne Hill (the rest of Herne Hill was in the parish of Lambeth).[1] Until 1889, it was part of the county of Surrey. In 1900 the original parish became the Metropolitan Borough of Camberwell.
In 1965, most of the Borough of Camberwell was merged into the London Borough of Southwark.[2] To the west, part of both West Dulwich and Herne Hill come under the London Borough of Lambeth.
The district known as Camberwell now covers a much smaller area than the ancient parish, and is clearly distinguished from Peckham, Dulwich and Herne Hill.
A grand and characterful semi-detached property from the late 19th century, offering extensive accommodation comprising six bedrooms, two bathrooms (one en suite), four generous ground-floor reception rooms, a separate kitchen, two utility rooms, a separate storage room, a cellar, and a garage.
