Wandle Road, London, SW17

Hawthorn House, built circa 1860, extending to over 400 Square Metres, (4,443 Sq.Ft ) is a substantial family home, arranged over four floors. Located on a sought after, quiet residential road with a 100’ x 40’ south facing garden, off street parking and garage, this home is very much a ‘one-off”.

The main entrance is via an imposing Portland stone staircase up to the front door and into a double height entrance hallway, reflecting the quality attributes of this special home. Offering copious amounts of entertaining space and a high degree of versatility, there is scope to adapt and further improve the already grand home into something truly exceptional. The generously proportioned rooms have equally impressive windows ensuring the home is bright and airy throughout. The garage being integral, links to the main house but also forms part of the original coach house with either two bedrooms and a bathroom, which could again be adapted into a nanny flat or guest suite with a double bedroom and separate reception room.

Overall, the property offers six or seven bedrooms (depending how you configure the house)served by five bathrooms plus three/four fabulous reception spaces, including the raised ground floor drawing room which features ornate ceiling cornicing, a feature fireplace. This room overlooks the beautifully landscaped south facing garden from floor to ceiling sash windows, plus central French windows which lead out on to a balcony with wrought iron balustrade, with views over the incredibly large rear garden.
