5 Bedroom Detached House

A substantial detached five bedroom family home located within the sought-after Westcombe Park Conservation Area, beautifully renovated and extended to create an elegant, versatile and wonderfully well-balanced house, set on a large corner plot, surrounded by gardens and with secure off-street parking.

Set back from the road on a large corner plot, the house offers a discreet presence from the front and opens into an impressive entrance hall that immediately establishes the tone of the property. The ground floor has a lovely sense of scale and flow, enhanced by large bay windows, double glazing and beautiful American walnut flooring. To the front is a charming reception room with a wood burning stove and period detailing, alongside a generous study, while to the rear sits a superb bespoke kitchen/dining space, designed for both day-to-day family life and entertaining, and benefiting from underfloor heating. Beyond this, an additional reception space, currently arranged as a yoga room/gym, adds further flexibility, while a separate pantry, utility area and guest cloakroom make the layout particularly practical.

The first floor is beautifully arranged around three excellent double bedrooms, including a wonderful master suite with stripped wood flooring, bespoke storage and a striking en suite bathroom concealed behind a secret wardrobe door. The en suite is finished to an exceptional standard, with a bath, separate shower, double sink unit and underfloor heating, while the family bathroom is equally well-appointed with both bath and shower.

The top floor provides two further bedrooms, one with its own en suite, together with useful eaves storage, making this an ideal arrangement for older children, guests or additional work-from-home space. Altogether, the house offers a rare degree of flexibility, with generous accommodation that can easily adapt to the changing needs of family life. In addition, planning permission has been granted for a substantial basement addition spanning the full footprint of the house, offering exciting further potential.

Outside, the gardens wrap around three sides of the house and create a wonderfully private and sunny setting. Thoughtfully designed for both family enjoyment and entertaining, they include lawned sections, mature planting, two patios for al fresco dining, and a fish pond. To the front, secure gates open onto an in-out driveway with off-street parking for two cars.

This is a rare detached house of genuine quality in one of the area’s most desirable residential settings, and your immediate viewing is highly recommended.

The property is within 400 metres of the heath and 650 metres of Greenwich Park, an outstanding location from which to enjoy local amenities in almost every direction. Walking south for 0.9 miles, you arrive in Blackheath Village, which offers an array of boutique shops, bars and restaurants, giving a genuine feeling of village life within London. Around 0.8 miles to the west lies the historic Greenwich town centre, while just 360 metres to the east is Blackheath Standard, with daily conveniences including M&S Food Hall.

Westcombe Park Station is just 0.4 miles away, with journey times of approximately 17 minutes to London Bridge, 22 minutes to Cannon Street and around 30 minutes to King’s Cross. The DLR, bus, riverboat, foot tunnel and cable car are also all within easy reach, while Canary Wharf, the City and central London are just minutes away via the Jubilee Line at North Greenwich (1.6 miles)
