We are delighted to offer this superb double fronted Victorian house positioned on one of the most desired residential roads between the Commons. Measuring over 3,500 sq. Ft., this rare family home has been thoughtfully extended to provide excellent accommodation and boasts a larger than average walled garden.
As you enter the property you immediately get a sense of the generous proportions of this family home which benefits from high ceilings throughout and plenty of original features. Set off the wide hallway, to the right, you enter the magnificent double reception room which boasts two attractive feature fireplaces, ornate cornicing, bespoke cabinetry and a wide bay window which brings in an abundance of natural light. On the opposite side of the entrance hall, you find a further reception room which boasts new wood flooring, a beautiful fireplace and built in bespoke shelves and cabinetry. To the rear of the ground floor is the stunning and bright kitchen/dining room which has plenty of space for a large dining table under the striking ceiling window. The kitchen itself is truly elegant and features high quality modern shaker-style wall and base units, marble and stone worktops and a large central island which is perfect for daily family life. This kitchen is a chef’s delight with its range cooker and various fully integrated appliances including a Miele dishwasher and Liebherr fridge freezer.
Through bi-folding wooden doors you step out to the generous and very wide garden with a raised decked terrace, ideal for al fresco dining with built in wooden seating, table and an electronic awning. Beyond is a generous lawned area laid with artificial grass which has mature trees to the back, providing a real sense of privacy. Completing the ground floor and accessed from both the front of the house and the garden is the side passageway which is essential for storing garden equipment as well as a plethora of bicycles should one wish.
There are two different staircases to access the lower ground floor which provides an excellent media room with a stunning large ‘climatised’ wine cellar with glass panelled front. There is also a further family/games room with a wide bay window with French doors. This adaptable space can be used as a playroom, gymnasium or even additional accommodation owing to the shower room on the same floor. In addition, there is also a useful utility room with numerous bespoke wall and base units which incorporate a sink and washing machine, tumble dryer and oven and microwave. Adjacent to this is a large storeroom.
The first floor comprises four double bedrooms and two bathrooms. To the front are two large double bedrooms, one being used as a child’s bedroom and the other boasting an elegant en suite shower room and a wide bay window. Located to the rear is another pretty double bedroom with views over the stunning gardens below through French doors and a Juliette balcony. On the opposite side of the landing is the fourth double bedroom with built in shelving, desk and two large windows flooding the room with natural light. Completing this floor is the family bathroom with a large bath and overhead shower.
The second floor, which also boasts great ceiling height throughout, offers a stunning study and the principal bedroom suite where you are immediately taken aback by its design and grandeur. Featuring not less than six Velux windows, this room feels like a suite in a five-star hotel. There is a well-designed walk in dressing room area with its many built-in wardrobes and then continuing down to a split level is the cleverly designed en suite bathroom. This has a free-standing designer bathtub, twin sinks on a floating vanity unit, a large walk-in shower and numerous cupboards and shelves for storage.
Gorst Road is a quiet residential street which is a no-through road which makes it unique to the area and carries very little traffic as a result. Wandsworth Common is seconds away with all its amenities, such as sports pitches, tennis courts, playgrounds, ponds and the well-trodden Skylark Café. The house also offers easy access to the amenities of Northcote Road and Bellevue Road with their vast array of restaurants, shops, cafés and bars, including the Michelin starred Chez Bruce.
There are excellent transport links including Clapham South underground station, Clapham Junction and Wandsworth Common mainline stations, which all provide fast access into the West End and the City of London. At Clapham Junction itself, there is a huge variety of bus routes going into Central London and beyond.
The immediate area provides an excellent variety of well-established independent and state schools, with both Honeywell School and Broomwood Prep (formerly Northcote Lodge) being a short walk from the house. Thomas’s Clapham, Finton House, Bolingbroke Academy and Hornsby House are also close by.<br /><br />
