Large period maisonette with 65-ft south garden, parking and quick city links..
Spacious 4-bedroom maisonette, ~1,796 sq ft across multiple levels
Set within a double-fronted late Victorian villa, this spacious four-bedroom maisonette offers over 1,790 sq ft of period living arranged over multiple levels. High ceilings, large bay windows and original cornicing combine with restored glazing, a wood-burning stove and bespoke joinery to create a characterful family home. The south-facing 65 ft private garden with an Italianate terrace and mature planting is a rare outdoor asset for a property of this type. Off-street parking and a private driveway add everyday convenience.
The accommodation works well for commuters and families: three principal bedrooms occupy the upper floors with generous glazing and afternoon light, while a lower-ground level provides a fourth bedroom (or study), utility room and useful storage. The living room and kitchen both open onto the terrace and garden, giving a good flow for entertaining and family life. Bickley station is about five minutes’ walk, with direct services to central London under 40 minutes, and local green spaces and well-regarded schools are within easy reach.
Practical considerations are straightforward but important: the property is leasehold (approximately 171 years remaining), with an annual service charge of about £2,675 and no ground rent. The building dates from 1891 and has solid brick walls (assumed uninsulated in places) so buyers should budget for periodic upkeep and potential insulation or energy-efficiency improvements. The layout and generous room sizes offer scope for sympathetic updating where desired.
This maisonette will suit families seeking a character home near excellent schools and transport, or buyers keen on a period property with a large private garden and parking. It presents immediate liveability with clear potential to customise and improve energy performance and finishings to taste.
