Description
Occupying the entire first floor of an attractive red-brick Victorian terrace, this spacious flat (850 sq ft / 79 sq m) showcases charming period features, generous proportions, and a peaceful setting on a quiet residential street in the heart of Forest Hill.
Set back from the street behind a walled front garden, the property is entered on the ground floor with stairs leading up to a wide landing that connects all rooms.
At the front, a large reception room spans the full width of the house, offering ample space for both lounging and dining. This impressive room features high ceilings, a bay window that floods the space with natural light, a chimney breast with built-in storage within the alcoves, and beautifully restored original exposed wood flooring.
Adjacent is the principal double bedroom—bright and well-proportioned—with a bespoke floor-to-ceiling fitted wardrobe that makes use of the ceiling height, plush carpeted flooring, and views over the garden through a double-glazed window.
The second double bedroom also benefits from carpeted flooring and two double-glazed windows, creating a comfortable and versatile space.
The spacious kitchen/breakfast room is both practical and inviting, with ample storage and room for a dining table and chairs. There are generous worktops, an integrated oven and hob with extractor fan, a stainless-steel sink, and space for a fridge, freezer, and washing machine. A large window to the side return provides plenty of natural light.
The bathroom includes a shower enclosure as well as a freestanding bath, toilet, and wash hand basin. It features patterned antique-style flooring, a heated towel rail, and two frosted windows providing both light and ventilation.
At the rear of the flat, a staircase leads down to offer direct access to a private section of rear garden, which features a gravel seating area surrounded by mature planting and a lawn—perfect for relaxing or entertaining.
