Large period property with modern rear extension and cellar, ideal for growing households.
Five double bedrooms and three bathrooms across four floors
A substantial Victorian mid-terrace offering 2,460 sqft of flexible living across five double bedrooms and three bathrooms. The house combines period detail — bay windows, cornicing, original fireplaces and high ceilings — with a contemporary open-plan kitchen/family room at the rear, complete with five skylights and bifold doors to the garden. A cellar provides useful storage and the loft conversion delivers an additional bedroom with a Juliet balcony.
This home suits a growing family seeking space close to green open spaces and good schools. It sits on a small plot with a rear garden arranged as decking, lawn and mature borders, ideal for children and alfresco dining. Transport links are convenient for Balham and local commons are within walking distance.
Practical points to note: the property is freehold and chain‑free, but constructed before 1900 with solid brick walls (no assumed cavity insulation) and an EPC rating of D. Council tax is high and the local crime level is higher than average for the area — factors to consider for budgets and insurance. The house is well maintained externally but buyers should expect typical Victorian maintenance and the possibility of upgrading insulation and some services over time.
Overall this is a roomy, characterful family home with scope to modernise further and add value, particularly by improving thermal performance and updating services where required. Its size and layout also make it attractive to landlords targeting larger family rentals in SW17.
