Stirling Road, London, SW9 9

The property distils a compelling sense of period authenticity, its interiors animated by original character details that have been thoughtfully preserved. Encaustic tiles run through the entrance hall, opening onto generous rooms layered with stripped timber floorboards, panelled doors, fireplaces and ornate cornicing. High ceilings and tall windows bring a sense of volume, with natural light shifting across the rooms throughout the day.

At the heart of the ground floor, an elegant double reception room is beautifully balanced in proportion and scale. An original fireplace sits beneath ornate cornicing, while stripped floorboards bring warmth and texture underfoot. Full-height shutters frame the windows, tempering the light and lending the room a timeless quality.

Towards the rear, the newly appointed kitchen and dining room provides a warmer, more informal centre to the house balancing classic materials and carefully considered detailing. Bespoke cabinetry is set against honed checkerboard marble flooring, with a generous timber dining table anchoring the space. Glazing across the rear draws the garden into view and brings natural light deep into the room, creating an easy connection between inside and out. A cellar, accessed from the ground floor, provides useful additional storage.

Three bedrooms are arranged across the first floor, alongside a newly fitted bathroom combining rustic oak and muted sage panelling with a generous walk-in shower lined in tactile stone tile. The uppermost floor houses a fourth bedroom and a further bathroom, creating a quieter level removed from the principal living spaces. Here, original stripped floorboards meet soft, chalky walls and a tongue-and-groove panelled bath beneath the window, complemented by a classic pedestal basin, Zellige-tile splashback and pared-back chrome fittings.

Beyond the rear of the house, a generous garden provides a private, established setting with space for outdoor dining, entertaining and relaxing. Its direct connection to the kitchen and dining room makes it feel like a natural extension of the living spaces.

There is also potential to extend the house further, subject to the necessary consents, offering scope to adapt the property over time while preserving the character, proportions and original details.
