Mackenzie Road, London, BR3

This beautiful three-bedroom house lies on a quiet residential street and has been recently fully renovated to a high standard by Studio Elephant Architects. Designed with clarity and flow in mind, the interiors feature natural materials, bespoke joinery, and considered details throughout. There is off-street parking for two vehicles, and the road offers unrestricted on-street parking if required.

The Building
This semi-detached house has been held within the same family for three generations. Its recent architectural renovation completely reimagines the internal layout, maximising natural light and creating a stronger connection between inside and out. The result is a serene, modern home set against a backdrop of mature planting and trees - unusually lush and private for the area.

The Tour
Entry is via a generous hallway, where a feature internal window frames the rear garden through the full-height glazing beyond, establishing a sense of openness from the moment of arrival.
The kitchen and dining area form the social heart of the home. Floor-to-ceiling glazing opens directly to the garden, flooding the space with natural light. A newly installed kitchen, designed around a central island, is accompanied by bespoke bench seating, offering ample space for informal gatherings and dining for eight.

Adjoining the kitchen is the main living room, a peaceful space featuring open shelving and concealed cabinetry around a central fireplace. The chimney has been swept and prepared for the installation of a log burner in the future, and soft lighting throughout reinforces the home’s calm, cohesive atmosphere. A ground-floor WC sits discreetly off the hallway.

The first floor contains two double bedrooms, including a master bedroom with ensuite shower room. A separate family bathroom serves the second bedroom. On the second floor is a large third bedroom with generous eaves storage and ample room for home-working. It is currently set up as a double bedroom with space for two work spaces. Additional built-in storage is neatly integrated into the landing.

Outdoor Space
The rear garden is a true sanctuary - rich with mature planting, including tree canopies, tall hedging and climbers. Several seating areas have been positioned to capture the best of the day’s light. At the far end of the garden beyond the lawn, a timber shed is concealed by wisteria and sits beneath the wide canopy of a mature cherry tree.

The Area
Set on a quiet, tree-lined residential street, the house enjoys a strong sense of community and excellent local amenities. At the end of the road are BR3 Brewery, Loki coffee shop, and El Molino, a well-loved tapas restaurant. Shotsmiths, another popular café, is close by, and The Spa gym - a well equipped local leisure centre - is an easy eight-minute walk away.

There is no shortage of green space, with Cator Park a 10-minute walk, South Norwood Country Park reachable in 15 minutes, and Crystal Palace Park just under 25 minutes away on foot.

Clock House and Kent House stations are both around eight minutes’ walk, offering fast connections to Victoria, London Bridge, and Waterloo in 20 minutes. Avenue Road tram stop, just two minutes walk away, provides direct access to New Beckenham in five minutes, Croydon in 15 minutes, and Wimbledon in 45 minutes.
