6 bedroom house for sale

Tenure: Freehold

This particularly large helping-of-a-home has width and depth exceeding most family dwellings. There are 4 layers of floors to tuck into; serve the upper levels alongside an accompanying basement apartment, or lightly toss both together for a magnificent meal of a home.<b>

Starters include succulent period features such as original window shutters, solid marble fire surrounds and mantels, beautifully carved surrounds with hand painted tiles (in the hall floor receptions), a turned handrail to the staircase, high skirting boards and are finished with intricately re-instated coving in the front reception. Your main course has to be the generous room sizes offered by the sheer scale of the property combined with a copious amount of natural light afforded by its 3-window façade. En suite bathrooms have been meticulously seasoned with marble, Jacuzzi baths and dazzling white suites. The rear garden is brimming with seasonal mature foliage such as conifers, euphorbia, orange blossom, magnolia, holly and a large vine poured over a wood pagola. Very well screened, the garden is as secluded as it gets. Find a moment's peace by the pond or on a bespoke slate bench in a quiet, rear arbour. Moving onto desserts, you have 2 terraces, a smaller decked one overlooking the garden, and another at the top of the house, stretching the depth of the property. From here you can see Canary Wharf and its entourage and enjoy extremely pretty views of St John's church behind. The crunchy gravel drive out front allows off-street parking for around 5 cars while smart iron gates permit privacy from the street.<br>

Choose trains from either Westcombe Park (Greenwich, London Bridge, Cannon Street) or Blackheath (London Bridge, Waterloo, Charing Cross, Cannon Street and Victoria). Access east London by car in minutes, well outside of the congestion charge zone. In terms of schools Heath House Prep School and All Saints Primary are a short stroll away in Blackheath Village.
