Darling Road, London, SE4

Description

This beautiful 4-bedroom plus study period home with a mature south-facing garden is located in the heart of the Brockley Conservation area on a tranquil road. Just moments away from Hilly Fields, it provides over 2200 sq. ft of living accommodation, combining period grandeur with contemporary comforts.

Inside, the owners have designed a home that blends period characteristics with modern amenities. The wonderful, enlarged kitchen-diner at the back is the star of the show. Natural light floods the entire area, thanks to floor-to-ceiling bi-folding doors out to the rear garden which has a stone entertaining area before the lawn and mature garden. The remainder of the ground floor is made up of two delightful reception rooms separated by interconnecting wooden doors – each with a marble fireplace surround. The front room boasts a large bay window and original wooden panelled shutters.

There is a separate utility space and a downstairs WC.

The current master bedroom faces the sunny garden while there are two rooms spanning the front of the house – one with a marble fireplace currently used as a bedroom while the other is a study and dressing room.

On the next floor, there is an unusually large family bathroom with rolltop bath and underfloor heating as well as a ‘works’ cupboard housing a Megaflo hot water tank and Vallaint boiler.

On the top floor are two more bright and large double bedrooms and another family bathroom as well as a large landing. There is a fully boarded, full height loft with the potential to extend subject to planning permission and a cellar to house your premium wines.

Darling Road is a small but wide tree-lined street lined with similar grand Victorian homes. The property is close to Brockley (Zone 2), from which fast and frequent mainline services into London Bridge take around 10 minutes, as well as London Overground services direct to Shoreditch and then on to Highbury and Islington. For services into Charing Cross and the City, you can also walk to St John's station. Elverson Rd DLR makes it simple to get to Canary Wharf.

The neighbourhood is active and cosmopolitan, and it is popular with young professionals, families and creatives. For evening entertainment, Brockley has all you need, including restaurants, gastro pubs serving craft beers, and coffee shops.

For fresh groceries and a bite to eat, pop along to Brockley market, an award-winning farmers' market held every Saturday. The delightful Hilly Fields is the nearest green space,  a few minutes’ walk where you'll find tennis courts, a popular café and panoramic views of London. There are a number of good schools in the area including Ofsted-rated ‘good’ and ‘outstanding’ primary schools and the highly rated Prendergast School as well as easy access to independent schools which offer coach services to Blackheath, Catford and Dulwich.
