5 bedroom terraced houseFriern Road, East Dulwich, SE22 0AX

This substantial Victorian house of 180 square metres has been beautifully extended and renovated throughout to provide a well balanced and wonderfully spacious and light family home in the heart of East Dulwich. Within catchment of excellent primary and secondary schools and close to superb independent schools, as well as the independent shops and restaurants of Lordship Lane, North Cross Road, with its thriving weekly market, and Forest Hill Road. Just 180m from an extensive park in probably the greenest part of Zone 2 London, this house is situated on a quiet, no-through, residential road which has a strong community spirit. Spread across the ground floor is a double reception, featuring bay window, high-ceilings, original features, and working fireplace, and the open plan kitchen entertaining area featuring island, induction hobs, and underfloor heating, powered by a new boiler on a smart heating system. The kitchen opens with bi-fold doors seamlessly onto the secluded rear garden, benefitting from afternoon sun, where patio space provides plenty of room for outdoor entertaining, and mature trees and shrubs make the garden feel very private. The ground floor also provides access to a waterproofed cellar, enabling significant storage. The first floor comprises two well proportioned, high-ceilinged bedrooms, a contemporary family bathroom, w/c, and a further bedroom to the rear, overlooking the garden.. On the second floor are two further, bright and airy bedrooms, enjoying city-skyline views over the rooftops of SE22, a second bathroom, and access to spacious, fully-boarded eaves storage. The house is double glazed throughout, with recently installed roofs, electrical consumer box, and all external brickwork cleaned and repointed. Mainline train connections can be found from East Dulwich, Peckham Rye and Honor Oak Stations, and frequent bus services are less than two minutes' walk from the property.
