PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

Sat proudly on the sunny SOUTH facing garden side of this popular street is this superb 4-bedroom 1930’s mid-terrace house that has been cleverly extended at the rear and loft converted to create a very spacious family home (1632 sqft). The house is offered to the market CHAIN FREE! Located moments from all the convenient amenities the high street has to offer and Honor Oak Park station with excellent connections to London Bridge and the Overground.
The front of the house has an appealing façade with traditional curved bay windows on the first and second floor that have been double-glazed but still retain the original stained-glass. A cute front paved garden shields the house from the street. As you enter the house you are welcomed by amazing original features of stained-glass double doors into the entrance hall which is clad in black and white Victorian tiles..
The front reception room is a cosy formal sitting area which is carpeted. There is a lovely centrepiece fireplace with a wood burner and built-in cupboards with shelving in the alcoves either side.
The kitchen reception room at the back of the house has been extended to create a vast entertaining space. The pitched roof at the rear has vaulted ceilings which allow an abundance of natural light to filter through the South-facing stylish glass windows above the patio doors. The whole room has solid oak flooring with underfloor heating and the space can be easily divided into different areas of kitchen, dining and lounging. The kitchen is sympathetically set within this surrounding, a large island defines this area with solid oak worktops matching the floor. It has neutral-coloured units and drawers, integrated appliances and a large range cooker with extractor hood above. The dining area is located beside a lovely original feature fireplace which has beautifully fitted cupboards and shelves in the alcoves either side. This is certainly the heart of the house and a wonderful family living space! French doors lead to a neatly landscaped south-facing rear garden that is a sun-trap in the summer. There is a patio area nearest to the house with a few steps leading up to a lawn surrounded by boxed bedding laden with mature plants and shrubs.
Upstairs on the first floor are three bedrooms, two are large similar sized doubles, both of which have lovely original feature fireplaces, the other bedroom is a smaller double situated above the hallway. All three bedrooms have their original floorboards that have been exposed, sanded and varnished.
The family bathroom on this floor is in excellent condition and is very well proportioned allowing enough space for a roll-top bath and a separate shower enclosure. Creature comforts include heated towel rail and a vanity sink unit.
The loft extension is another fantastic feature. Having been converted at the same time as the neighbour’s house next door, this allowed the space to be larger than most conversions. The room is illuminated with light from two skylights at the front and a Juliet balcony to the rear. It has built-in wardrobes, and ample eaves storage. The additional conversion space can really be felt in the bathroom on this floor which has been luxuriously fitted with fashionable tiles, a vanity unit and a walk-in shower.
