Set along the reputable Kilmorie Road in Forest Hill, this four-bedroom Victorian terraced house is a fine example of period architecture elevated by considered, design-led improvements. Behind the classic façade, you’ll find generous proportions, a driveway for one to two cars, a substantial west-facing garden, and the rare bonus of both a cellar and a loft—each offering meaningful future potential.

The ground floor is where the home really sets itself apart. Two beautifully styled reception rooms flow through Crittall-style doors, creating a flexible layout that works just as well for family life as it does for entertaining. Tall ceilings, original floorboards, Farrow & Ball painted walls, and a working log burner provide warmth and character, while bespoke joinery with subtle LED-lit cabinetry brings a contemporary, tailored feel. To the rear, the kitchen sits within the extended part of the house (installed by a previous owner) and opens directly onto the garden via bifold doors—perfect for summer evenings and effortless indoor-outdoor living. A tastefully finished downstairs WC completes the level, with cellar access discreetly positioned via the WC.

Upstairs, the first floor delivers three genuinely spacious double bedrooms, plus a fourth room currently used as a home office. The principal bedroom benefits from a smart en-suite (added by a previous owner), complemented by a family bathroom serving the remaining bedrooms.

Outside, the west-facing garden has been curated with both atmosphere and practicality in mind—Moroccan tiling, lighting throughout the garden, and a shed at the end with four electrical points, ideal for storage, a workshop setup, or garden entertaining. Additional highlights include new fire alarms, antique brass switches, all-new shutters, original internal doors, and upgraded heating with new radiators throughout (excluding the study and guest bedroom).

The loft is boarded and insulated, ready for conversion, subject to the usual consents, while the cellar has been damp-proofed, creating valuable secondary space.

For families, the location is particularly compelling, with a strong selection of well-regarded schools nearby. Primary options include Kilmorie Primary School (conveniently on the same road), Dalmain Primary School, and St William of York RC Primary School. Secondary provision is equally impressive, with Forest Hill School, Sydenham School, and Harris Girls’ Academy East Dulwich all within accessible reach.
Included appliances comprise a dishwasher, washing machine and fridge-freezer, with the gas hob potentially available subject to final confirmation.

This is a home that needs to be viewed to be truly appreciated—its finish, flow and attention to detail are best experienced in person.
