Buckstone Close

A stylish three- or four-bedroom, mid-century town house, perched at the top of this popular, quiet residential cul-de-sac in the heart of Honor Oak. The house was renovated in 2018 with a new kitchen, bathroom, boiler and rewiring. The house comes with a southeast facing rear garden, double glazing throughout, a separate garage and a driveway.

Buckstone Close has a thriving community, located right opposite Brenchley Gardens which is a lovely green open space to look out to and enjoy.

The house is situated in one of the best locations on the close, offering views over the London Skyline. It is raised from street level, which allows the property to benefit from additional privacy. Steps lead up to the front door flanked by a flower bed. There is a useful outside storage cupboard and the garage is beneath the house at street level.

Upon entry there is a good sized entrance hall for coats, shoes and the like which leads through to the dining/reception room. There is also a very handy downstairs guest toilet where the boiler is housed.
The kitchen sits at the front of the house and has been well arranged with bespoke plywood storage cupboards and integrated appliances. There is a large window looking out over the front garden and driveway and a pocket window at eye level that looks into the dining area, handy for keeping an eye on kids or guests as well as offering borrowed natural light.

Between the kitchen and the dining area is a beautiful staircase that has a unique installation of floor to ceiling metal rod guardrail that makes a lovely feature up to the first floor. The dining area has plenty of room for a table and chairs and space for a sofa in the lounge area. At the far end of the room the large sliding doors frame the garden beautifully. The floor is original hardwood parquet.

The current owners have green fingers and have designed the garden to be easy to maintain. A paved patio leads directly from the house, which is perfect for al fresco dining in the summer. Beyond this is a lawn area which is bordered by beds and planters full of mature plants shrubs and trees. This is a tranquil peaceful space to relax and unwind.

Upstairs on the first-floor landing there is a really good storage cupboard that fills the width of the stairwell, as well as one directly above on the second floor.

Occupying the whole width to the back of the house is another reception room that can alternately be used as a large double bedroom. It is dominated by full width windows that offer plenty of natural light and lovely far-reaching views over the garden. The floors are original exposed floorboards that have been sanded and varnished - this features throughout the hallway and the other bedrooms.
Also on this floor, at the front of the house, is a double bedroom and a family bathroom.

The bathroom has vinyl flooring and the walls around the bath and toilet are clad in white metro tiles. There is a shower attachment above the bath, a heated towel rail, contemporary sink with a vanity unit below and a large fluted window for natural light and ventilation.

Upstairs on the second floor are two more double bedrooms that are a similar size and both have full width windows, the bedroom to the rear overlooks the garden and the bedroom to the front has lovely views over Brenchley Gardens and the London Skyline beyond.

Buckstone Close is a very popular location, there is a very good community of local residents and great amenities nearby as well as a number of highly rated Ofsted schools locally such as Fairlawn Primary school which is just up the road. Conveniently flanked by Honor Oak Park, Nunhead and East Dulwich all offering a bustling array of shops, bars, cafes and restaurants for all ages.
Honor Oak Park station is the closest mainline about 0.5 miles with an efficient Overground service to Highbury and Islington via Canada Water and National Rail to London Bridge.
Nearby green leafy open spaces can be found at Brenchley Gardens, One Tree Hill, Horniman Gardens and Peckham Rye.
