Hurlingham Road, Fulham, London

Set directly opposite Hurlingham Park, this substantial six-bedroom house unfolds over four floors and extends to around 2,907 sq ft of internal space. Unusually wide for the area, with green views to both the front and rear, it offers a rare sense of openness and scale in this part of Fulham. Behind its smart period façade, the interior has been thoughtfully finished, with two excellent reception rooms, a recently extended kitchen opening onto the garden, and far-reaching green views from the front.



The entrance hall leads into a notably wide double reception room on the ground floor, a wonderfully versatile space with high ceilings, a feature fireplace with log burner, and a lovely outlook towards the park. It is a room that could be arranged in any number of ways, with ample space for both formal sitting and more relaxed family life.



At the rear, the house opens dramatically into a kitchen and dining room of almost 700 sq ft, extended within the last three years and designed very much as the heart of the home. Widening to almost 22 ft, it has the kind of scale that is increasingly hard to find in this part of Fulham, with generous room for cooking and hosting in one open, light-filled space. A large central island anchors the kitchen, which is fitted with considered, high-spec finishes including a Fisher & Paykel fridge, a Bora hob with integrated extractor, a Shaws of Darwen butler sink and Dekton worktops, chosen for their durability and heat resistance. Glazed doors draw the eye out to the garden beyond. There is also a guest WC on this floor.



The rear garden measures close to 1,000 sq ft and is notably large for this part of Fulham, feeling both private and well established. A broad terrace sits directly outside the house for dining and entertaining, while a long stretch of lawn is framed by mature planting and trees, creating a green outlook from the house and a sense of seclusion that is rare in London. The garden enjoys sunlight throughout the day, moving from morning at the rear of the garden to the evening on the terrace, by the kitchen.



The first floor is arranged with impressive flexibility. At the front, a beautiful drawing room enjoys lovely ceiling height, large sash windows and uninterrupted views over Hurlingham Park. It is a particularly elegant room and could equally serve as an additional bedroom if required. Also on this floor are two further bedrooms and a family bathroom, making it well suited to children, guests or those wanting a separate floor for bedrooms and playrooms.



The principal suite occupies the front of the second floor and again takes full advantage of the open park-facing aspect. Generous in scale, it is served by a walk-in wardrobe and a large bathroom, creating a well-proportioned private suite. To the rear is a further bedroom, while a utility room on this level adds a layer of everyday practicality.



On the top floor, an additional bedroom sits beneath the eaves, accompanied by extensive storage. This upper level would work equally well as a guest room, teenage bedroom, study or playroom, depending on need.



Original proportions, fireplaces and good ceiling heights sit alongside a more contemporary rear extension, and the overall effect is warm, inviting and highly functional. Air conditioning, built-in joinery and well-planned storage add to the sense of comfort.



Hurlingham Road is one of Fulham's most established family addresses, not least for its position facing the open green space of Hurlingham Park. Parsons Green is a short walk away, with its much-loved cafés, restaurants and independent shops, while the surrounding streets are lined with some of south-west London's best-regarded schools. It is a part of Fulham that feels both polished and genuinely lived in, with a strong neighbourhood rhythm and an ease that makes family life run well.
