PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

A charming two double bedroom Victorian freehold half house with a landscaped rear garden, located on this quiet residential street a short walk from Honor Oak Park and Forest Hill rail stations.
The house has an imposing red brick facade and is bordered by a mature privet hedge offering privacy from the street.
The ground floor has two reception rooms, one at the front of the house and one at the back. Both reception rooms are decorated to a high standard, offering comfortable, light and airy living space.
The frontroom features a period fireplace and original Victorian doors, cornicing and sash windows as well as fitted alcove cabinets.
The dining room has an open layout with a feature Esse stove and provides ample space for entertaining. A widened doorway leads on to the kitchen, which has been sympathetically modernised with bespoke kitchen units, Fired Earth tiling and a stylish contemporary finish. There is a large utility cupboard which also houses the washing machine.
The dining room at the back has a double-glazed patio door that opens to the rear garden. The rear garden has been beautifully landscaped with hard-wood decking leading to a central patio surrounded by slate shale, and a relaxing area of lawn at the rear.
Upstairs are the two double bedrooms. The master bedroom is at the front and the 2nd bedroom adjacent. The bedrooms are decorated to a high standard, once again following the Victorian theme. Both bedrooms contain built-in full length wardrobes.
The family bathroom at the back of the property is generous in size offering a free-standing bath and a separate natural stone tiled shower enclosure. The bathroom has been renovated to create a luxurious and sophisticated room with a large sash window flooding it with light.

The loft offers a handy storage space but also has the potential to convert to create an additional bedroom and bathroom. Planning approval was gained in 2007 (buyer to take own advice as to current status) and a precedent has also been set by neighbouring properties locally.
Bovill Road is approximately 5 mins walk to Honor Oak Park station where there are regular services to London Bridge (around 15mins) as well as London Overground services to Shoreditch and Highbury and Islington. There is also easy access to the Thameslink line at Crofton Park station (around 15 mins walk) for Blackfriars, Farringdon and Kings Cross.

The trendy high street at Honor Oak Park boasts a range of independent shops, cafes, bars, a deli and several highly-recommended restaurants. A short walk in the other direction gives access to thriving Forest Hill, with its pubs, independent shops, restaurants and highly regarded gym and swimming pool.

Nearby green leafy open spaces can be found at Blythe Hill Fields, One Tree Hill and Horniman Gardens all offering fantastic views of the London skyline.
