PROPERTY DESCRIPTION
In the heart of the ever-popular Honor Oak Park, just a three-minute walk from the station, is this handsome mid-terrace, four-bedroom Victorian family home, complete with a private west-facing rear garden. The property has been beautifully renovated by the current owners, resulting in a sleek, minimalist interior that complements its period character.
The house enjoys excellent kerb appeal, set back from the street behind a walled front garden. The striking façade features exposed brickwork, large sash windows and an impressive portico entrance.
Upon entering, you are welcomed by a spacious hallway housing the staircase with useful storage beneath, along with a separate downstairs WC. Dark stained Maple wood floors run seamlessly throughout the ground floor, enhancing the sense of flow and space.
To the front of the house is a generous double reception room, accessed via impressive double doors. The front reception retains a Victorian fireplace, high ceilings with cornicing and large sash windows, while the rear reception is ideal as a dining or family room, conveniently located next to the kitchen. Double-glazed, solid timber patio door leads from here to the rear garden via the side return.
The rear of the property is occupied by a beautiful kitchen-dining room, fitted with a stylish bespoke kitchen and a full range of integrated appliances. Cabinetry runs along both sides of the room, providing excellent storage and worktop space. A large stainless-steel sink sits beneath a window overlooking the side return, while the dining area is flooded with natural light from the double-glazed solid timber bi-fold doors opening onto the garden.
The west-facing rear garden enjoys afternoon and evening sun, making it ideal for summer entertaining and al fresco dining. Designed to be low maintenance, it features decking nearest the house, a gravelled section and a patio area to the rear, all bordered by mature plants and shrubs.
The first floor offers three bedrooms. The principal bedroom spans the full width of the house and benefits from two wooden sash windows, a feature fireplace, and high ceilings with cornicing. Adjacent is another well-proportioned double bedroom, also featuring a charming fireplace and a sash window overlooking the garden. The third bedroom is at the far end of the house and offers nice views over the rear garden.
Completing this floor is a well-presented family bathroom, finished with mosaic tiling and comprising a bath with shower above, contemporary WC, heated towel rail and wash-hand basin with storage beneath.
The loft has been sympathetically converted to create a smart and spacious fourth bedroom, complete with a stylish en-suite shower room, excellent eaves storage and far-reaching views.
The property is situated on a quiet and popular residential street in the heart of Honor Oak Park, just a short walk from the station offering London Bridge and Overground connections. The vibrant high street provides an excellent selection of independent shops, cafés, bars, a deli and highly regarded restaurants and pubs. Forest Hill is also within easy reach, offering further amenities including a well-known gym and swimming pool.
There is an abundance of green open space nearby, including One Tree Hill, Devonshire Road Nature Reserve, Blythe Hill Fields with its panoramic views across London, local playing fields with tennis courts and a children’s play park, the Horniman Gardens and Museum, Brenchley Gardens, and Peckham Rye.
