Set on Rotherhithe Street on the south bank of the Thames, this freehold mid-terrace offers roomy accommodation across three floors with flexible layout for family life or continued HMO use. The ground floor opens from a kitchen-diner onto a south-east facing garden, with a separate lounge and a versatile fifth bedroom or study. Upstairs are three double bedrooms and a principal top-floor suite occupying the whole of the top level with en-suite and eaves storage.
Practical benefits include a private driveway for secure off-street parking, double glazing installed since 2002, mains gas central heating and very low flood risk. Transport links are strong — Jubilee Line, Overground and riverboat services connect quickly to Canary Wharf, the City and wider London, while nearby parks and a seasonal riverside sand stretch add local outdoor appeal.
Notable drawbacks are factual and important: the EPC is rated D and the brick walls are assumed uninsulated, offering clear scope for energy-efficiency improvements. The plot is small and the property occupies a modest overall footprint relative to its floor area; council tax sits above average. It is currently configured and licensed as a five-bedroom HMO, so buyers seeking single-family use should allow for reconfiguration and planning or licensing checks.
This home suits buyers who want a substantial London property with flexible use in a well-connected, improving area. It offers immediate occupation potential with straightforward modernization upside, particularly around insulation and energy performance.
