This spacious Victorian terrace has a superb blend of old and new. It’s on a friendly street, close to Nunhead’s shops, parks and cafés and offers such a quick and easy commute.

It’s a stylish five bedroom mid-terrace with plenty of room for a growing family and is ready for you to move in and make yourselves at home.

Lugard Road is a friendly street where you’ll all be welcomed with open arms

It’s only a five minute stroll from Queens Road Peckham Station, with fast and frequent trains into central London meaning you could be stepping onto the

London Bridge platform less than 20 minutes after leaving the house!

That will make a huge difference to your evening and weekends, giving you much more time to explore the area and enjoy your wonderful new home.

The original Victorian terrace layout has been serving families well for almost 200 years but here it’s been extended and much improved, creating a substantial home that’s perfect for modern families living busy lives in 2024.

The traditional two reception rooms have been opened up to create a more sociable space, decorated in bold but calming tones. The bay window at the front has lovely wooden shutters and there’s built alcove shelving that looks great and provides handy storage space.

The rear of the property has been transformed with a large rear and side return extension, allowing the creation of an amazing open plan kitchen / dining room.

There’s no doubt that you spend most of your time here - whether that’s grabbing a quick slice of toast in the morning or catching up at the end of a busy day.

The breakfast bar will be so handy for the kids in the morning - but also when you have friends over people can just sit and chat with a cuppa or a glass of wine.

The modern kitchen has stylish fitted units with wooden work tops and top of the range Miele appliances.

It’s a lovely light and bright space, thanks to the crisp white decoration, skylights and bi-fold doors which open to the south facing back garden

Some of the improvements aren’t quite as exciting but from a practical level are just as important - such as the large kitchen cupboard with space for a washing machine (and a tumble dryer on top) and the handy downstairs wetroom style shower room, just off the hall.

The south facing back garden is something of a sun trap. Some of the outside space has been taken to create the extension but what remains is a lovely low maintenance space that will come into its own for summer parties or BBQs.

The first floor has three double bedrooms, each with their own character and style.

The main bedroom at the front is the biggest, with modern fitted wardrobes but the one at the rear has a roof terrace giving the best views over the garden below.

The family bathroom is also on the first floor, it’s new with a rainfall shower over the bath and gorgeous bright pink brick tiles.

The top floor loft conversion has another two bedrooms, one with plenty of storage space in the eaves. There’s also a newly fitted shower room on this floor.

The location is really handy for getting into town but chances are you’ll want to stay closer to home on an evening and at the weekend.

It’s only a ten minute walk down to the independent shops and cafés on Ayres Road.

If you’re looking for something more substantial than a coffee and a pastry from the award winning Ayres Bakery, the area around Queens Road Peckham station is on the up, with some of London’s best restaurants, including the fabulous Kudu.

As a family friendly home it’s good to know the local schools are great - the “Outstanding” John Donne Primary School is closest, being only a 5 minute walk away.

If you have older kids, St Thomas the Apostle College is just as close - and is another “Outstanding” school.

If you’ve got a growing family or you’re just looking for a move-in ready home with plenty of space, this superb five mid-terrace could be perfect.

It’s been updated, extended and improved to a superb standard and is in a fantastic location with so much on your doorstep - and a really quick and easy commute.
