Property description

A lovely Victorian family house, with an extended kitchen/dining room and an enchanting garden with a beautifully secluded aspect. With five bedrooms and over 2,100 square feet, the house is both spacious and well proportioned, with good ceiling heights and a wealth of original features including fireplaces, ornate cornicing, and the large sash windows of the period. The ground floor lends itself well to both family life and entertaining, with an easy flow from the elegant double reception room through to the kitchen/dining room and on, out to the terrace which provides the perfect, private spot to enjoy summer evenings. There is a superb “Smallbone” oak kitchen in a timeless design, with a large island unit and matching dressers framing the dining area; this room really is the heart of the house and has an incredibly pretty aspect onto the garden. French oak flooring and limestone tiles to the kitchen set off the pale colours downstairs. Upstairs, the four original bedrooms are all good doubles and the main loft has been converted to create a large fifth room (with scope to add a third bath/shower room, subject to the necessary building regulations). There is a downstairs cloakroom and a very useful and accessible cellar, as well as a good brick storage cupboard for the garden.

Honeywell Road is a tree lined street located off Northcote Road, conveniently close to the highly regarded Honeywell Primary School and within an easy walk of the boutiques, cafes, restaurants and shops of this fashionable and buzzy area. The expansive green open spaces of both Clapham and Wandsworth Commons are also close by, hence the nick-name of this desirable enclave, “Between The Commons”. The area is well served by an impressive number of high achieving independent schools as well as excellent state schools for children of all ages and there are good transport links, with mainline services from Wandsworth Common and Clapham Junction stations as well as the tube (Northern Line) at Clapham North.
