This substantial Grade II‑listed Georgian terraced house spans 2,573 sq ft across five floors and suits a large family seeking period character close to central London. High ceilings, original sash windows, ornate fireplaces and a central light void create bright, generous rooms arranged over multiple levels. A landscaped rear garden and raised front garden add outdoor space, although the plot is modest in size.
The accommodation includes five principal bedrooms plus a self-contained lower‑ground flat with its own front door — ideal for an au pair, older child, guest suite or rental income. The traditional kitchen with solid‑wood floors and an Aga provides a warm family hub and flows directly to a terrace for al‑fresco dining. Practical storage is good, with built‑in cupboards, loft access and a cellar‑style lower level.
This home retains many original fittings but will benefit from cosmetic updating in parts — the lower‑ground flat particularly offers scope to modernise and personalise. Buyers should note the property is listed, which preserves its character but may restrict certain alterations. Council tax is described as quite expensive and the immediate area is marked as relatively deprived despite being in a well‑connected, culturally rich inner‑city neighbourhood.
Transport and local amenities are strong: multiple Underground and Overground stations are within easy walking distance and a wide choice of schools, shops, theatres and eateries are nearby. For families wanting space, period detail and the option of an independent flat, this house offers a rare combination of central location and adaptable accommodation.
