Upper Tooting Park, London, SW17

The plot size and lateral layout make this home a unique proposition amongst traditional Victorian terraced houses. Parking is a rare find in this location and the home has undergone extensive refurbishment by the current owners. Completely gated, this is a true oasis while still maintaining proximity to all the amenities and transport of Balham and Wandsworth Common.

The home has been renovated by the current owners, with a new roof and loft conversion constructed within the last 2 years. The wraparound garden is accessed from three sides of the property, creating a brilliant indoor/outdoor feel in the warmer months, perfect for families and entertaining.

The house opens into a wide hallway, with useful coat cupboard and separate utility room. The kitchen/diner is wonderfully bright, with large picture windows and three sets of doors opening onto the gardens. There is a snug/study area with feature fireplace and original parquet floors, which then leads through into the double reception room, complete with bespoke carpentry, parquet flooring and exposed beams. The large picture window and doors onto the gardens flood the room with natural light.

Upstairs, there is an expansive central landing, leading to three of the bedrooms and main family bathroom. The main bedroom with vaulted ceiling and attractive bay window flows through into a walk-through dressing room with extensive storage space and into the en-suite bathroom with walk-in shower and Juliet balcony.
The two further generous double bedrooms feature pretty bay windows and the floor is completed by the recently installed bathroom, with separate claw-foot bathtub and walk-in shower.

Upstairs, the loft has been converted to create a luxurious guest suite with Velux windows and a stylish en-suite shower room.

This house offers the sought-after combination of width and light and makes a perfect home for family living.

Upper Tooting Park is well located within a short walk of the shops and restaurants of Balham and Bellevue Village. The open expanses of Wandsworth Common and Tooting Common amenities are nearby. The home is equidistant from three stations - Tooting Bec (Northern Line), Balham (Northern and mainline train) and Wandsworth Common (mainline). The area is extremely well served by good state and private schools, including St Anselm's, Finton House, Hornsby House and Holy Ghost Primary
