A substantial six‑bedroom Victorian semi‑detached house on a premier Barnes road, offering spacious period reception rooms, high ceilings and versatile family accommodation across multiple floors. The property includes three bathrooms (plus cloakroom), a conservatory, a multi-room cellar and off‑street parking accessed via a private front courtyard — rare for the area and useful for families with cars.
The west‑facing rear garden with side access and French doors from the drawing room creates easy indoor–outdoor flow. Planning consent has been granted for a single‑storey rear extension, raised terrace, replacement roof to the side addition and a new brick boundary wall (Case DC/SJH/24/0792/HOT/HOT), offering clear scope to increase living space and value subject to the approved works.
As a period house built before 1900 with solid brick walls, the property retains many original features but may need energy‑efficiency upgrades; wall insulation is assumed absent and the double glazing install date is unknown. Council tax is very expensive — an important ongoing cost — and the house will suit buyers prepared to manage typical maintenance and updating of a large Victorian home.
Located close to the Thames, excellent schools (including The Harrodian and St Paul’s), green spaces and transport links, this house is well‑placed for family life in Barnes. It will particularly appeal to buyers seeking generous period proportions with potential to extend and modernise.
