Summary - Adelaide Avenue, Ladywell, SE4 SE4 1YR
5 bed 3 bath Terraced
South-facing 20m garden, restored period features and excellent transport links.
Five bedrooms across four storeys with three bathrooms and flexible layouts
A substantial five-bedroom, four-storey Victorian terrace set opposite Hilly Fields in the Brockley Conservation Area. Restored period details — high ceilings, bay windows, stripped fireplaces and stained glass — combine with practical modern updates such as Italian granite worktops, a Rangemaster stove, a Nest thermostat and a three-year-old boiler for efficient day-to-day living.
The house is designed for family life and flexible living: two generous reception rooms, a ground-floor kitchen/dining space that opens directly onto a south-facing garden, utility area and separate lower-ground access useful for bikes or muddy boots. The garden runs about 20 metres, is south-facing and features mature planting, a protected horse-chestnut, raised beds and a wildlife pond — low-maintenance slate replaces lawn but the pond and mature planting require ongoing care.
Practical highlights include a recently renewed electric circuit board (circa two years ago), fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The top floor offers flexible bedroom arrangements with eaves storage and an additional shower room; a small insulated loft provides extra storage. There is on-street parking with no restrictions nearby, and excellent local transport links with three Zone 2 stations within easy reach.
Notable considerations: the property sits in a solid-brick shell typical of its era with no known cavity insulation (assumed), an EPC rating of D and relatively high council tax. Buyers seeking maximum thermal efficiency or an A/B-rated EPC should budget for insulation and possible energy upgrades. The pond and mature trees are attractive features but require ongoing maintenance and the horse-chestnut is protected by a tree preservation order.
