This refurbished Victorian mid-terrace on St John’s Vale delivers nearly 1,500 sq ft of flexible family living across three floors. The extended lower-ground kitchen/diner with large rooflight and Crittall doors connects directly to a landscaped south-facing garden, creating a bright, sociable heart for everyday life and entertaining.
The house currently provides four principal bedrooms, three bathrooms and a separate reception that can function as a fifth bedroom, guest suite or home office. Period features such as restored sash windows, parquet floors and cast-iron radiators sit alongside a contemporary kitchen with Bosch appliances and Calacatta quartz surfaces, offering a thoughtful balance of character and modern convenience.
Buyers should note practical constraints: the property sits within a conservation area so external alterations are likely restricted; walls are original solid brick with no confirmed insulation and further insulation work may be needed; the rear garden and plot are modest in size. The immediate neighbourhood has average crime levels and local area indicators show pockets of deprivation despite a wider creative and tech-worker community.
Chain-free and newly renovated, this home suits families seeking spacious, well-finished accommodation close to green spaces, good schools and strong transport links into central London. It also presents rental or longer-term value-add potential for buyers willing to accept conservation-area limitations and to invest in any further thermal upgrades.
