Summary - 82 DRAKEFIELD ROAD LONDON SW17 8RR
5 bed 3 bath Terraced
Large five-bed Victorian terrace with south-facing garden and versatile lower-ground spaces.
Approximately 3,724 sq ft across four storeys
A substantial Victorian mid‑terrace on Drakefield Road, this four‑storey freehold provides about 3,724 sq ft of versatile family space with a large south‑facing garden. Period features — high ceilings, original cornicing, sash windows and a feature fireplace — combine with a contemporary open-plan kitchen/family room and full‑width bi-fold doors to the garden.
Accommodation includes a formal reception, kitchen/family room with walk-in pantry, five double bedrooms, three shower/bathrooms and two separate WCs. The lower-ground floor has been converted to provide a gym, cinema room, utility and laundry area with separate access — useful as ancillary space or for flexible uses.
Practical considerations are clear: the building is late‑Victorian solid‑brick construction with no assumed wall insulation and double glazing of unknown age, so buyers should budget for energy‑efficiency upgrades. Council Tax is in a high band (G) and the surrounding ward records higher deprivation than central averages; nonetheless local amenities, excellent broadband and strong transport links to Balham and Tooting make this a well‑connected family home.
This property will suit families who want generous period proportions and flexible living over multiple floors, and buyers prepared to invest in modernisation to improve thermal performance and lower running costs. The layout and basement conversion also present rental or home‑business potential subject to approvals.
