A Substantial and Characterful Victorian Family Home Hydethorpe Road, Balham, SW12

A well-proportioned unfurnished Victorian terraced house on one of Balham's most sought-after residential streets, across from Henry Cavendish Primary School offering approximately 1,530 sq ft of thoughtfully extended family accommodation across three floors.

The Property

The house retains much of its original Victorian character, including feature decorative fireplaces, sash windows, and period cornicing, whilst we have created a wonderfully sociable and contemporary living space to the rear by extending.

The ground floor centres on a stunning open-plan kitchen, dining, and living room, formed by a rear extension with a vaulted roof and multiple Velux skylights that flood the space with natural light throughout the day. Full-width bi-fold doors open directly onto a paved terrace and a well-kept lawned garden, creating a seamless connection between inside and outside that is ideal for entertaining and family life. A separate, more formal reception room sits to the front of the house, retaining its original bay window and a calm, characterful atmosphere perfect as a sitting room or study.

The kitchen features bespoke fitted cabinetry finished in a warm grey, with integrated appliances and ample storage.

Bedrooms and Bathrooms

The first floor offers two generous double bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from a handsome bay window with leafy outlook, an original feature cast-iron fireplace, original pine floorboards, and fitted wardrobes. A third bedroom and a fourth smaller bedroom also sit on this floor.

The second floor, accessed via a further staircase, houses the top-floor bedroom, a bright and airy room with Velux windows that also benefits from its own eaves storage. This floor lends itself well as a private retreat, teenager's suite, or home office.

The family bathroom is well-appointed with a bath, separate shower, heated towel rail, and attractive patterned floor tiles.

Outside

To the rear, the garden measures approximately 34 feet in depth, with a paved terrace directly off the bi-fold doors and a good stretch of lawn, a shed and pet hutch.
