Property description

A really lovely three bedroom Victorian terraced house, with well proportioned rooms, good ceiling heights and a 35’ secluded south-west facing garden. The present owners have enjoyed their home for many years, carefully modernising and maintaining it without making too many structural changes.

The current, original internal space is configured to provide a good double reception room with separate kitchen/breakfast room leading through to a conservatory/garden room, with three proper double bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs. There are two undeveloped loft spaces and the possibility of enlarging the kitchen dramatically by building into the side return. We anticipate this fact will be enormously appealing to buyers, as it provides an opportunity to create a lasting family home.

Bassingham Road is a delightful road, part of an extremely well regarded enclave of tree lined streets, located within walking distance of Earlsfield mainline station which provides a direct and speedy link to Waterloo. This road has always fallen comfortably within the catchment area of Swaffield Primary School and there are numerous cafes, shops, restaurants and bars to be found within easy reach either along Garratt Lane or in the nearby Southside shopping centre which has undergone major redevelopment in recent years. The green open spaces of Wandsworth Common begin at the top of the hill and there are numerous other smaller parks in the area too.
