Queenswood Road, Forest Hill, SE23

A stunning five-bedroom period home, ideally positioned on Queenswood Road, a quiet residential street between Forest Hill and Sydenham. Offering over 2,000sqft. of beautifully proportioned accommodation, the property has been thoughtfully extended and enhanced by the current owners, including a loft extension which has created an additional double bedroom with an en-suite shower room. The result is a spacious and versatile family home, combining generous living space with stylish and well-considered interiors.

The original brick façade gives the house plenty of period charm. Stepping inside, the welcoming entrance hall leads through to a spacious double reception room, offering a generous and sociable living space. The room benefits from a wood-burning stove and bespoke fitted cabinetry, creating a warm and inviting feel.

To the rear is an impressive kitchen and dining space, featuring sleek modern cabinetry and ample room for both everyday family life and entertaining. French doors open directly onto the thoughtfully landscaped tiered rear garden. Leafy and tranquil, the garden provides a wonderful space for lounging in the sunshine and enjoying the outdoors. The ground floor also benefits from a handy separate utility room.

The first floor now houses three generous double bedrooms, following the conversion of the two smaller rear bedrooms into one large double room. All three bedrooms benefit from generous built-in storage and are served by the stylish family bathroom, which features twin sinks, cleverly integrated mirrored storage and a contemporary bath with shower.

Further extended by the current owners, the second floor now houses two further generous double bedrooms, both benefiting from their own en-suite shower rooms. This versatile level could work particularly well as a private principal suite, or as a separate floor for older children, guests or space to work from home, providing a degree of privacy away from the main family accommodation.

The location offers an excellent balance of peaceful residential surroundings and easy access to the amenities of both Forest Hill and Sydenham. Both town centres are within easy reach, offering a vibrant selection of independent cafés, restaurants, shops, supermarkets and everyday amenities. Bell Green Retail Park is also nearby, now home to an M&S Foodhall alongside a useful range of shops and everyday conveniences. Forest Hill and Sydenham Stations provide excellent National Rail and London Overground connections into Central London, while Lower Sydenham Station offers an additional transport option, with services providing quick connections towards Central London, including Charing Cross. The surrounding area is also well served by local bus routes.

The area is particularly popular with families, with a good selection of well-regarded nurseries and schools nearby. With its peaceful setting, generous proportions, versatile five-bedroom layout and excellent position between two vibrant South London neighbourhoods, this is an impressive family home offering plenty of space to grow into.
