Please quote EM0546 – Enviably situated in a superb gated private estate spanning some six acres of glorious gardens and woodland, this grand five bedroom freehold residence, previously the home of Sir Henry Tate, founder of the Tate & Lyle sugar company, whose extensive art collection was originally housed in this property’s breath-taking billiards room, and which later formed London’s renowned Tate Modern Gallery.
Originally built in the 1830’s and steeped in history, the property centres around the sumptuous main billiards room which housed the original art collection - a room flooded with natural light through original glass skylights in a double height ceiling, and boasting a wealth of grandeur and elegance. A mezzanine level accessed via a spiral staircase showcases the room in all its glory – a viewpoint from which to absorb this stunning space.
Lovingly restored and re-developed in the year 2000, the property retains its enormous historic and period appeal, whilst also having been modernised in the main living areas to create flowing versatile accommodation with modern interiors throughout. The billiards room is complimented by a well equipped kitchen, utility room, five bedrooms (all en-suite), and ample storage. Further features include two private patio areas, perfect for outside entertaining, double garage and off street parking with electric vehicle charge point.
Externally, the communal grounds create a haven of peace and tranquility for family life, with well maintained lawns, a mature orchard, large pond and delightful woodland areas.
The property is located within easy reach of both Streatham and Streatham Common stations with direct trains to Balham (for the Northern Line), Clapham Junction, Victoria, London Bridge, Croydon and Gatwick Airport. Numerous regular bus routes also provide good local connections. Streatham itself offers an array of shops, bars, restaurants, cafes and delicatessens, as well as supermarkets and leisure facilities.
Streatham Common and Rookery Gardens are just a stroll away, with Streatham Common hosting regular events including the popular Inkspot Brewery ‘shutters up’ day - a fine day out of beer tasting and gourmet outdoor dining as well as a regular farmers market. The area is also well served by excellent local schools and an array of nursery school options.
