PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

Big, bold and beautifully presented is this lovely 2 double bedroom split level period conversion, set on the top two floors in this magnificent Victorian semi-detached house, within close proximity to Forest Hill station. The flat benefits from a share of the private rear garden which has been neatly landscaped and fenced off by the current vendors, there is also an abundance of space (1120 sqft/104 sqm), a long lease, plenty of storage and double glazing throughout.

Entrance to the flat is on the ground floor of this impressive building with raised steps leading to the front door.


The stairwell has been elegantly decorated with stripped wooden exposed steps furnished with runners following a winding original bannister and plenty of natural light from windows on the half landings.

The first-floor landing offers access to the reception room, the kitchen diner and the bathroom.

At the front of the property is a lavishly decorated reception room, offering plenty of character and charm with a cast iron feature fireplace as a centre piece and cornicing on the ceiling. The floors are engineered oak with additional sound proofing underneath and there are two large sash style double glazed windows that illuminate the room with natural light.

The bathroom has natural colour floor and wall tiles which surround a wash and basin that sits on a vanity unit, a toilet and the bath which has a shower and screen above. A frosted window allows for additional light and ventilation.

The kitchen diner is arguable the heart of the property with plenty of space for a dining table and chairs to entertain guests. A nice touch is the industrial lighting that sits above the dining table. The kitchen is styled with a good amount of fashionable grey base and wall mounted units with integrated appliances and white metro tiled splashbacks. A solid wooden worktop houses the hob with oven underneath and the sink that sits neatly under the window overlooking the garden below. There is also a separate utility cupboard that neatly fits the washing machine and dryer freeing up space in the kitchen and offers additional storage.

Upstairs again are the bedrooms, both are very generous doubles, the largest of which is at the front of the house and is currently set up as a cosy TV lounge! There are built in floor to ceiling wardrobes in the alcove of the chimney breast which offers great storage, the flooring is the original wooden board that have been stripped and varnished and there is a double glazed window to the front.

To the rear of the property is the other double bedroom which also have a floor to ceiling wardrobe in the alcove for storage and original stripped wooded floorboards. The window of this room has lovely green views out over the garden below.

As an added bonus is the study which houses the boiler but also has a desk set up making a great quiet workstation. Above the hallway is access to a small loft space allowing for even more additional storage.

The garden can be accessed down the side return of the house from the front door. The back half of the garden has been allocated to this property where the current vendors enjoy the quiet, peaceful and lush green surroundings. The garden has been lovingly landscaped with an array of plants and shrubs surrounded by a lawn and sheltered by huge mature trees all around. There is also a large shed for storing gardening equipment and a raised deck area which is perfect for chilling on a warm summer’s afternoon.

The location of the property couldn’t be more convenient, within a few minutes’ walk of Forest Hill station with links to London Bridge and Overground connections as well as an abundance of local amenities from the high street. The area also offers access to some highly rated primary schools and green open spaces such as Blythe Hill Fields and Horniman Gardens with its famous museum.
