Property description
This substantial, six bedroom detached house occupies a prominent position on one of Blackheath's finest roads.
Designed by Thomas Norman Dinwiddy FRIBA in 1908, this property offers family friendly accommodation with the rare benefit of having living space set out entirely across the ground floor.
The property is offered to the market in excellent condition and demonstrates a delightful blend of period style with a modern twist. Measuring close to 4000 square feet, the property briefly comprises a beautiful open plan kitchen/reception area, formal dining room, sitting room, study, utility room, six bedrooms (master with dressing room and en-suite), three bathrooms, convenient storage rooms, off-street parking and a delightful stone terrace leading onto a west facing garden.
It is fair to assume that families would spend much of their time in the wonderful kitchen / reception space which is found on the north side of the house. This double aspect room has an informal dining area to the front, a contemporary fitted kitchen with centre island and skylight above in the middle of the room and a lounge area which overlooks the well maintained rear garden. A stunning double height window to the rear fills the room with an abundance of natural light and doors to one side lead onto a delightful stone terrace.
Access to the garden can be via any of the principle reception rooms, including the formal dining room and double aspect sitting room. Upstairs, the impressive master suite which over looks the rear garden, has features including dressing room and an impressive en-suite bathroom with free standing bath, his/hers basins and a separate shower room.
Kidbrooke Grove is a particularly popular location and this tree lined road is made up of similarly impressive homes. It takes just a stroll of a couple of hundred yards to bring you to the heath. This vast green expanse is a true gem of South East London and provides a spectacular recreation area. Beyond the heath in one direction, Blackheath Village provides a wonderful array of shops, bars and restaurants. In terms of transport, Blackheath Station provides regular services into London Bridge, Cannon Street, London Victoria and Charing Cross. Alternatively, one stop down the line at Lewisham Station, the DLR has regular services into Bank and Canary Wharf. Looking north across the heath is Royal Greenwich Park with Greenwich's historical town centre found through the north gates.
Those considering schools have a number of options within close proximity, including Blackheath Preparatory School, Pointers and Thomas Tallis, to name just a few.
The property has existing planning permission approved for a detached double garage.
