A considered set of interventions has transformed this two-bedroom Victorian house in Peckham, south-east London. At the rear, an extension has carved out a bright, resolutely contemporary kitchen with strong connections to the enchanting garden. Almost equidistant from Queens Road Peckham and Nunhead stations, the house is well-placed for travel into central London, although there are plenty of beautiful green spaces and celebrated restaurants to choose from in the locale.
