Victorian character and modern living across four floors in sought-after Wandsworth..
Chain free five-bedroom Victorian terraced home, c.2,498 sq ft
This substantial five-bedroom Victorian terraced house combines period character with contemporary living across approximately 2,498 sq ft and four floors — a flexible family home for entertaining and everyday life. High ceilings, original bay windows and exposed brickwork sit alongside a modern open-plan kitchen with skylights and a glass extension that opens onto a well-kept botanical garden.
Accommodation includes a striking double reception, a lower-ground level with two bedrooms, a media room, utility and underfloor heating in the basement, kitchen and bathrooms — useful for multi-generational living or home working. The principal suite features a generous walk-in wardrobe and en-suite, with an additional en-suite bedroom and a guest suite on the top floor, providing private spaces for all household members and visitors.
Practical points to note: the house is solid-brick Victorian construction (c.1900–1929) with assumed no wall insulation, double glazing of unknown install date, mains gas boiler and radiators, and an expensive local council tax. The property is freehold and being sold chain-free, but the area records above-average crime levels — worth factoring into security and insurance decisions.
Set on a quiet residential road close to Old York Road’s shops and eateries, with excellent transport links via Wandsworth Town and Clapham Junction, this home is well placed for highly regarded schools (including an Outstanding secondary) and local amenities. For families seeking character, space and modernised living in a very affluent part of Wandsworth, this home offers significant everyday convenience and long-term potential, though some energy-efficiency improvements may be advisable.
