Property description
This wide Victorian semi-detached house makes the utmost of space and light. You'll find an abundance of period features too; fireplaces, sash windows, tiling and picture rails. The house is kitted out with underfloor heating in most rooms and there is an integrated music system throughout. The location is darn good with Ladywell or Hither Green stations within a 10 minute walk (there are also a multitude of major bus routes at the end of your road). There is an active residents association run by several of the residents and they are making lots of changes to the area - one of those is for the council to approve Lewisham Park to be a conservation area.
An imposing exterior greets you with double canted bay window and high, private hedging with secure electric gates. There is off street parking for two cars. Step through the decorative portico and in through the front door. You arrive in a spectacular L-shaped entrance hall with tessellated floor tiles, dado rails, period feature fireplace and a wide original staircase. The first reception faces front with a wide bay window with plantation shutters and reclaimed Parquet flooring. There is a marble mantel and cast iron wood burning stove. Picture rails circle overhead and parquet flooring dances underfoot. On the opposite side of the hall is a second reception/dining room. It’s a beautiful space, with French doors leading rear to the garden and an inner door directly to the kitchen. You’ll find more period features in here, including a beautiful fireplace with marble mantel, picture rails and cornicing. The kitchen is the heart of the home and you can really put that to use in this house. Stretching an impressive 34ft, it’s a vast space big enough to keep the family close and impress your friends at the same time (we love the marble floor). There is a huge island with breakfast bar, Neff oven and four ring gas hob, integrated dishwasher, integrated fridge/freezer and big family sized sink. A wall of tri-folding doors lead directly onto the garden.
The stairs sit at a commanding position in the centre of the house and lead up to the first floor landing. It's huge and has cosy carpets and a beautiful side aspect stained glass window. The first bedroom has a terribly grand wide bay window with luscious park views, a period fireplace and mantel, picture rails and a large en suite shower room. The second bedroom is a cute single and is carpeted with a side aspect. Taking the rear spot are two further double bedrooms - both have period fireplaces and garden views.
The second floor has bedroom number five - a dishy example with vaulted ceiling and lofty views over the park. There are two Velux windows to brighten the space and deep carpets underfoot. A smart shower room is well placed on this floor to make your mornings run smoothly. It has a double walk-in shower, dishy tiling and Velux window. The last bedroom is huge and bright with a wall of foldable floor to ceiling glass doors leading onto a Juliet balcony. There's access to a huge roof terrace with amazing roof top views.
Step outside and you have all that Lewisham High Street has to offer. You are a short walk from the centre with its fruit and veg market and multitude of shops including Marks and Spencer’s and Sainsbury’s. Ladywell Leisure Centre is a 5 minute stroll so keeping fit should be a breeze. Transport is not a problem with Ladywell station under a 10 minute walk away and Lewisham not much further (with regular services to Charing Cross, Canon Street and Victoria). Or grab one of the many buses that run along the main road which will take you pretty much anywhere you want to go!
