Refurbished by the current owners to an exacting standard and featured in the Channel 4 programme George Clarkes Old House, New Home, the property offers almost 2,900 sq ft of stylish accommodation and successfully balances original period detailing with more contemporary touches and features, including Forbes & Lomax brushed bronze light switches and plug sockets throughout and Villaverde Murano glass chandeliers in several rooms.
On the ground floor is a wonderful double reception room with high ceilings, American smoked oak floors, ornate ceiling cornicing and a pair of period style fireplaces with attractive marble surrounds and twin over mantle mirrors.
The kitchen and family room is at the rear of the house and at over 26 ft long, has ample room to sit, dine and entertain guests. Lit from above by three large roof lights, the room is beautifully light and features a sleek, contemporary kitchen, blending stainless steel, with dark wood units and black granite work surfaces. There is plenty of storage and a large central island with a breakfast bar. Bi-folding doors leading to the garden. Stairs lead down to a basement utility room and downstairs cloakroom.
Five generous double bedrooms are arranged over the top three floors, including two on the first floor together with an opulent over-sized Drummonds bathroom with vaulted ceilings, a nickel effect double ended free standing bath, a distressed Rupert Bevan mirrored wall, twin basins, set in to an open sided marble topped vanity and shower with a full height glass screen.
There are two further bedrooms on the second floor, together with a WC and dressing room. The principal suite is on the top floor of the house and enjoys superb views over the local area from its balcony.
To the rear of the house is a 34 ft garden with a lower patio area leading directly from the kitchen with steps leading up to an Easi-grass lawned area with mature borders filled with plants and shrubs.
Conveniently located on Ramsden Road between the junctions of Temperley Road and Nightingale Lane, in the heart of the Nightingale Triangle, transport can be found at Clapham South or Balham which provide both Underground and overground services. There is a fantastic choice of private and state schools nearby, subject to catchment and entrance each year and the amenities of Bellevue Road, Northcote Road and central Balham are within easy walking distance, as are the open spaces of Wandsworth Common.
