Set on picturesque Lower Ham Road with direct outlook to Canbury Gardens and the River Thames, this Victorian semi-detached house offers family-sized accommodation across three floors. The ground floor’s open-plan kitchen/dining/living space with large glass doors leads to the rear garden, creating a bright, sociable heart to the home. High ceilings, bay windows and period details remain throughout, complemented by modern kitchen fittings and three contemporary bathrooms.
Five double bedrooms provide flexible sleeping and working space, with the principal bedroom benefitting from a dressing room and en-suite. The top-floor room is a standout — deep, flexible and opening onto a balcony with river views — ideal as a family retreat, guest room or home office. Off-street parking and freehold tenure add everyday convenience.
Buyers should note material considerations: the property is a 1930s/1940s solid-brick build with assumed lack of cavity insulation, which may require upgrading to improve thermal performance. Broadband speeds in the area are reported slow, and the location carries a medium flood risk; buyers may wish to check insurance and flood-prevention measures. Local crime rates are above average and council tax is described as quite expensive.
Positioned for family life, the house sits close to highly regarded primary and secondary schools, leafy open spaces and Kingston town centre, with good rail links to central London. For families seeking a substantial period home with riverside character and scope for energy improvements, this property presents a rare opportunity in a sought-after North Kingston location.
