Can anyone provide an example of a well-known topological space that has the following three properties:
(1) It is perfect (contains no isolated points),
(2) T2, and
(3) not metrizable.

A perfect Hausdorff space that is not metrizable.

The so-called "Sorgenfrey line" or "lower limit topology" is an example of a Hausdorff, perfect, non-metrizable space. The topology of the Sorgenfrey line is generated by the basis of all half-open intervals $[a,b)$, where $a$ and $b$ are real numbers.
It is well known that the space is both Hausdorff and not metrizable. And here

there is a nice proof that the space is perfect.
