This handsome bay-fronted Victorian house of immense quality, provides extensive family accommodation over two floors with a large two-storey outbuilding offering excellent scope for conversion. Set in broad walled gardens close to Midsummer Common, Mitcham’s Corner and the historic centre.

A large and attractive reception hall with an enclosed entrance vestibule leads to a cloakroom/WC and a useful utility room, which provides additional storage, plumbing for appliances and a wash hand basin. Two fine and elegantly proportioned reception rooms interlink via bespoke double doors. Both rooms boast high ceilings, front and rear bay windows, a blend of original and bespoke features and a high degree of natural light. The expansive triple aspect kitchen/dining/family room has a contemporary finish and provides access to and complete views of the rear garden. The kitchen has an extensive range of modern units and drawers with deep working surfaces and a matching central island providing an informal seating area.

Upstairs, a spacious landing area leads to a luxurious family bathroom suite, separate WC and five light and spacious bedrooms. Bedrooms three and four interlink and offer scope to create a wonderful principal bedroom suite.

Outside, the property is situated on the corner of Chesterton Road and George Street. A walled front garden with wrought-iron railings provides established shrubs which gives the property some privacy from the road. The broad rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn, has a variety of mature trees and shrubs, gated side access leading to a large, paved terrace area and a detached outbuilding arranged over two floors with double doors opening to George Street. An external timber staircase leads to the first-floor room. This brick building offers huge potential but needs extensive renovation.
