Description
This rare and charming property offers spacious interiors, a stunning rear garden, and the benefit of no onward chain. Known locally as the "Secret House," it is set back from the road in a peaceful and secluded location, free from street noise. Despite its tranquil position, the property remains conveniently close to local amenities, including Mayow Park and Sydenham High Street.
Coming to the market for the first time in 50 years, this is a unique opportunity. The home features a welcoming entrance hall with exquisite parquet flooring and generous proportions. To the left, a beautifully maintained lounge showcases a round bay window, elegant wood flooring, and a gas fireplace. The extended second reception room, measuring 24 feet, serves as a dining space and opens onto the rear patio through double doors. The fully fitted kitchen includes walnut shaker-style units, integrated appliances, granite countertops, an electric oven, hob, and tiled flooring. An impressive study, office, or potential fourth bedroom with a stunning en-suite bathroom completes the ground floor. The highlight of this level is the expansive rear garden, which spans over half an acre. This private, mature garden features exquisite landscaping, a large lawn, and a bespoke two-story timber wendy house, creating a truly magnificent outdoor space.
The first floor comprises three bedrooms—two doubles and one single. Both double bedrooms feature extensive built-in wardrobes, and all rooms are filled with natural light. A family bathroom, separate W.C., and large loft space complete this floor. Additionally, planning permission has been granted for the construction of a fourth bedroom.
This property must be viewed to fully appreciate its scale, charm, and exceptional setting. To arrange a viewing, contact Winkworth today.
