A beautifully presented Victorian three-bedroom terraced home, enviably located on one of Nunhead’s most desirable roads.

This charming property combines elegant period features with stylish modern finishes, creating a home that is both characterful and highly practical.

The welcoming hallway leads into a spacious double reception room, opened up to maximise light and flow. Finished with herringbone-pattern wooden flooring and decorated in calming neutral tones, the space is enhanced by a striking feature fireplace to the front and French doors to the rear, opening directly onto the garden.

To the back of the property sits a generous kitchen/dining area, perfectly designed for modern living. The sleek galley-style kitchen offers extensive storage and surface space with glossy white cabinetry, oak worktops, and high-quality integrated appliances. The dining area benefits from skylights and full-width bi-fold doors, flooding the space with natural light and creating a seamless transition to the garden—an ideal setting for entertaining.

The west-facing garden has been landscaped for easy maintenance and maximum enjoyment, comprising a tiled patio with raised beds, a central lawn, and a decked area positioned to capture the sun throughout the day. A garden shed at the rear provides additional storage.

Upstairs, the accommodation is arranged across three bedrooms. The rear bedroom, currently used as a nursery, would also serve as an excellent study or guest room. A stylish family bathroom with a skylight, bathtub, and overhead shower is adjacent. The middle bedroom offers a well-proportioned double overlooking the garden, while the impressive principal bedroom at the front boasts built-in wardrobes, a feature fireplace, and twin sash windows, creating a bright and welcoming retreat.
