~ The Farmhouse, Westergate Road, London SE2 0DR
~ A Rare Opportunity – First Time on the Market in 46 Years
~ Freehold | 4 Bedrooms | 2 Bathrooms | Driveway & Garage | Garden | Roof Terrace
Occupying a discreet and generous plot in south-east London, this remarkable four-bedroom Victorian farmhouse is offered to the market for the first time in 46 years. Set behind a wide private driveway and surrounded by mature trees and planting, the house enjoys a level of privacy and quiet rarely found within the capital — it would be easy to imagine you were nestled in the Kent countryside rather than London Zone 4.
The house spans over 1,700 sq ft of internal space and retains a wealth of original detailing throughout. Period features such as stained glass, open fireplaces, exposed beams, and decorative timberwork imbue the home with a rare sense of history and warmth. While beautifully maintained, the house offers a compelling opportunity for refurbishment or reconfiguration, with clear scope for contemporary upgrades, extension or even full redevelopment (subject to necessary consents).
The Tour
Accessed via a deep paved driveway with parking for several cars, the house opens into a broad hallway that introduces the character of the home. Straight ahead sits a light-filled lounge, centred around an original open fireplace and framed by sash windows, wooden paneling and timber beams.
Moving through, the heart of the home is a generous open-plan kitchen and dining room, with an adjoining study area ideal for home working or informal family living. A conservatory extends from the rear, offering garden views and year-round light, while a separate utility room and downstairs WC provide essential practical space in addition to a fourth bedroom that overlooks the garden.
Upstairs, three further bedrooms are arranged around a central landing, including a spacious principal suite with direct access to a private roof terrace, catching the morning sun and overlooking the treetops of the garden below. Two bathrooms serve the upper floor, offering scope for modernisation.
Outdoor Space
The east-facing rear garden is particularly special: Mature and thoughtfully planted, it includes a two ponds, established shrubs and trees, a timber summer house, and a shed. The garden’s size and seclusion offer a true sense of escape, perfect for slow mornings, outdoor entertaining, or quiet retreat.
A large garage sits adjacent to the house, currently used for storage but with ample potential to convert into a home gym, studio, workshop, or additional living space.
The Area
Westergate Road is a quiet residential street just moments from Lesnes Abbey Woods, a historic and expansive green space with ancient woodland, walking trails and panoramic views across London. Despite its peaceful surroundings, the house is within walking distance of Abbey Wood Station, which now benefits from the Elizabeth Line, placing Canary Wharf (11 mins), Bond Street (25 mins), and Heathrow (54 mins) all within easy reach.
The area has seen significant regeneration in recent years, with new cafés, amenities, and improved public realm complementing its established community feel. The local area also offers a number of well-regarded schools and parks, making it particularly appealing to families.
In Summary
29 Westergate Road offers a rare blend of rural charm and urban connectivity, all wrapped in the enduring elegance of Victorian architecture. Homes of this character and scale — especially with such potential for creative transformation — are seldom available in this part of London.
Early viewing is highly recommended.
