Summit Way, London, SE19

Characterful and extremely well presented four bedroom mid-century family house positioned at the end of a quiet tree lined cul-de-sac, on a highly sought-after street near the Crystal Palace triangle. **Sold Chain Free**

This is a particularly leafy residential location, with lots of public green spaces locally, including Fox Hill Playing Field and Stambourne Woods (a community run woodland) behind the house, and with lots of mature trees to feast your eyes upon.

Entering at ground level, you arrive in a pleasing hallway, with a stairwell running up ahead, immediately to the right of the hallway is currently set up as a home office but also doubles up as a guest bedroom, it also comes with ample storage area and a bathroom suite. Because it feels separate from the main living and sleeping areas, this really is perfect as a work-space or for overnight guests, or if you are musically minded.

Going up to the first floor you open out onto a wonderful open plan reception, dining and kitchen which is over 33 feet by over 15 feet, with a fully fitted kitchen with Corian work tops, including kitchen island, built in shelves and a guest WC room. The kitchen bifold doors open out onto a south westerly facing garden which includes a smart decked area as well as a summer houses at the rear. The rear of the garden also has its own private entrance into Stambourne Woods.

The top floor (second) has three further bedrooms, perfect for a young family including a large master bedroom (15ft x 10 ft) with bespoke wall to wall built in wardrobes (oak interior) and magnificent views. Located at approx. 110 metres above sea level you are standing at one of the highest points in London, and in the far distance, your view terminates at the rolling, green chalk hills of the North Downs, which mark the border between Greater London and Surrey.

Completing the second floor is the loft space, perfect for any additional storage you may have, there is a drop-down ladder which makes access easy.

Crystal Palace, which was included in Lonely Planet's 'greatest little-known neighbourhoods in the world', is a vibrant area with award-winning restaurants and bars, as well as an Everyman cinema occupying a carefully restored art deco building.

Long-standing independent shops include Bookseller Crow. The Everyman Cinema is a brilliant local one, and lovely pubs locally include The Alma and The White Hart (book ahead for your Sunday roasts!). Restaurants? We particularly rate Kish Mish, 400 Rabbits and Taro to name but a few.

There are several schools close to the house, including Harris City Academy Crystal Palace and Sydenham High School GDST. Crystal Palace station is a 10-minute walk away. Connecting trains run to Canada Water in around 20 minutes and Victoria, London Bridge and Shoreditch High Street in around 30 minutes.

There are also brilliant bus links to central London.

The street and indeed surrounding streets are very friendly, neighbours are helpful and there is a real feel of community, something that can often be lost in the modern world.

Note from the vendor
"We have loved living in this house for the past 10 years, where we raised our young family and were fortunate to become part of such a wonderful community. Summit Way and Shelford Rise have a rare neighbourhood spirit, with close friends nearby and children attending the local schools together - something truly special for London life. It is now time for us to move abroad, and leaving this street will not be easy.
At the back of the garden, a private gate leads directly into Stambourne Woods - a peaceful oasis of nature where you can even hear owls at night. The famous Crystal Palace Triangle is just a 3-minute walk away through the garden gate, offering easy access to its much-loved pubs, cafés, independent shops and the Everyman Cinema. The location is also incredibly convenient for transport as we travel for work, with easy connections to both Gatwick and London City airports"
