Ullswater Road, London, SW13

A handsome five-bedroom semi-detached family house of 2,487 sq ft on a corner plot on a popular residential road in Barnes. It has a large kitchen and dining room opening onto a west-facing 60ft garden, a double reception room, four bath and shower rooms, a garage and off-street parking.

Set on a generous corner plot, this is a spacious five-bedroom semi-detached house. It has the added benefit of a garage, off-street parking and no onward chain.

The house is set back from the road behind a paved forecourt with parking. The ground floor has a bay-fronted reception room that flows through to a family room, with plantation shutters and a modern fireplace. At the rear is the heart of the home: a superb kitchen and dining room. The kitchen measures 15'3" x 13'5" and has granite worktops, a breakfast bar and a gas hob. It opens into a large dining and living area with a vaulted ceiling, skylights and three sets of French doors onto the garden. The ground floor is completed by a shower room, a separate utility room with its own garden access, and an integral garage with an electric roller door.

On the first floor, the principal bedroom has its own dressing room and en-suite shower room. There are two further double bedrooms, including a generous bay-fronted 16'7" bedroom, and a family bathroom. The top floor has two more bedrooms and a shower room, plus eaves storage. This makes it ideal for teenagers, guests or a home office.

The west-facing rear garden measures approximately 60ft x 34ft. A wide terrace off the house is perfect for outdoor dining. Beyond it, a lawn is surrounded by established borders and mature planting, and the garden is very private.

Ullswater Road is a quiet, leafy road in the heart of Barnes, a short walk from the village and the River Thames. Barnes Village has the duck pond and green, independent shops and cafés, well-regarded restaurants and pubs, and the Olympic Cinema. The Saturday Barnes Farmers Market is a local favourite. For open space, there are riverside walks along the Thames towpath, Barnes Common, and the London Wetland Centre.

The area is well served by schools. Primary schools include Barnes Primary, Lowther Primary and St Osmund’s Catholic Primary. The independent schools St Paul’s, The Harrodian, Ibstock Place and the Swedish School are all within easy reach.

For commuters, Barnes and Barnes Bridge stations both offer regular direct services to London Waterloo. Bus routes run to Putney, Richmond and Hammersmith, all with Underground connections. Heathrow is easily reached by road.
