Summary - 54 MABERLEY ROAD LONDON SE19 2JA
5 bed 3 bath Detached
Period charm, large garden, and commuter links close to Crystal Palace Park.
Five generous bedrooms across four storeys
This striking Victorian detached house offers 2,666 sq ft of flexible living across four storeys, ideal for a growing family seeking period character and space. The house retains many original features — cornicing, fireplaces, tall ceilings and sash windows — while modern interventions include double-glazed timber sash windows and a high-spec Alno kitchen with Miele appliances. The principal bedroom stretches the full width of the house and there are five well-proportioned bedrooms in total.
Outside, a south‑east-facing garden framed by mature trees provides a private, sun-catching outdoor room with planted beds and lawn. A garage and useful lower-ground utility space add practical storage and day-to-day convenience. Crystal Palace station is around an 11‑minute walk, giving direct links to London Bridge and Victoria, while the nearby Grade II-listed Crystal Palace Park and local schools make the location family-friendly.
There are some important considerations to note. The property is a solid-brick Victorian build and walls are assumed uninsulated, so energy-efficiency improvements (insulation, possible heating upgrades) will be needed to reduce bills. Council tax sits at the higher band (Band F), and the wider area shows pockets of deprivation despite low local crime and strong commuter links. Some rooms and external elements may benefit from updating or careful maintenance.
For families who value character, generous room proportions and proximity to parks and good schools, this house presents long-term potential. The combination of period detail, a large garden and a substantial footprint means there is scope to tailor and improve thermal performance and finishes to match modern living and reduce running costs.
