3 bed terraced house for sale

Stillness Road, London SE23

'A handsome three-bedroom, mid-terrace Edwardian family home, offering generous, well-proportioned accommodation, a mature private rear garden and an abundance of original character and charm.'

'Set back from the street behind a walled front garden with established hedging, the property makes an immediate impression with its attractive façade of exposed London stock brickwork, beautifully complemented by decorative masonry surrounding the original sash windows. A pathway leads to a covered front porch, which shelters the original front door featuring elegant stained-glass panels.'

'Upon entry, the principal reception room spans the full width of the house and is filled with natural light from a large bay window. This impressive space boasts high ceilings with ornate cornicing, original sash windows and a working wood-burning stove set within a characterful fireplace, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.'

'The hallway is open to the reception room and incorporates the staircase with useful storage beneath. From here, access is provided to the second reception room and onward to the kitchen-breakfast room at the rear.'

'The second reception / dining room is a cosy yet elegant space, retaining period features including high ceilings and a central fireplace. Beautiful French doors open onto the private rear garden via a surprisingly wide side return, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living.'

'The kitchen-breakfast room has been extended to the rear to create a bright and sociable family space. The extension benefits from raised, vaulted ceilings and a large skylight that floods the room with natural light. The kitchen is well appointed with a range of wall and base units, work surfaces housing a hob, oven and extractor, and a sink positioned beneath a bespoke angled glass window that rises to ceiling height and enjoys views over the garden. A side door provides direct access to the garden via the side return. There is also clear potential to further extend into the side return, subject to the usual planning consents, with precedent set by neighbouring properties.'

'The rear garden measures approximately 33ft (10m) and is arranged in two distinct sections: A stone patio immediately outside the house, ideal for entertaining, and a well-maintained lawn bordered by mature plants and shrubs. At the far end of the garden is a raised paved seating area that enjoys the afternoon sun, along with a garden shed providing practical storage.'

'On the half landing upstairs is a separate WC and a family bathroom. The bathroom features a shower over the bath, a traditional wash-hand basin and WC, with a sash window overlooking the garden providing excellent natural light and ventilation.'

'At the front of the house are two bedrooms: A single bedroom currently used as a study and a generous double bedroom. To the rear is a further double bedroom with stripped and varnished floorboards and a casement window overlooking the garden. Both double bedrooms benefit from high ceilings, feature fireplaces and original fitted cupboards.'

'The top landing provides access to a linen cupboard housing the hot water tank, as well as a loft hatch with an extendable ladder. The loft offers excellent potential for conversion, subject to planning permission, and provides a generous footprint.'

'Stillness Road is ideally located within 500 metres of Honor Oak Park station, offering regular services to London Bridge and London Overground connections to Shoreditch and Highbury & Islington. Crofton Park station is also easily accessible, providing Thameslink services to Blackfriars, Farringdon and King-s Cross. The vibrant high street at Honor Oak Park offers a superb selection of independent shops, cafés, bars, delis and popular restaurants, while nearby Forest Hill provides further amenities including pubs, independent retailers, restaurants and a highly regarded gym and swimming pool.'

'A number of excellent green spaces are close by, including Blythe Hill Fields, One Tree Hill and Horniman Gardens, all offering stunning views across the London skyline. The area is particularly popular with families thanks to the strong selection of Outstanding and Good local primary schools, with Stillness School literally around the corner.'

'This is a fantastic opportunity to acquire a truly special family home in an exceptional and highly sought-after location.'
