6 bed semi-detached house for sale

Hardy Road, London SE3

One Of Two Architect-Designed Semis That Dared To Be Different. This striking Blackheath family home offers four floors of flexible living, wildlife-friendly gardens and sociable spaces that grow with you, all on a quiet street near Greenwich Park.

You’ll notice it immediately - one of a bold pair of modern homes that stand confidently among their period neighbours on this leafy Blackheath street.

Built with care, intelligence and just the right amount of architectural defiance back in 2007, this is a home designed to be lived in, loved and adapted over time.

Natural light pours through full-height windows, while zoned underfloor heating and a mechanical ventilation system with heat recovery (mvhr) keeps things comfortable year-round.

The Roundhouse kitchen is fitted with Gaggenau appliances and opens up via bifold doors to a south-east facing garden-sunny, private and ready for everything from coffee to garden parties.

There’s space to spare.

Spread across four carefully considered floors, you’ll find six double bedrooms, six bathrooms and a distinctive curved room on the ground floor that’s been a cinema, a guest suite and even a fully accessible bedroom-complete with its own en-suite.

On the lower ground floor, a self-contained flat gives you options: Ideal for extended family, a nanny or older children who haven’t quite flown the nest.

The top-floor main bedroom feels like a sanctuary, with garden views, a balcony and a bath positioned perfectly to take in the treetops. An opening skylight window above the stairwell helps cool the home in summer and keeps the air fresh.

Elsewhere, a peaceful library space and two top-floor rooms with rooftop views offer plenty of home-working potential.

The back garden stretches over 130 feet. Landscaped in 2014, it has fruit trees, wildlife-friendly planting and catches the late-afternoon sun. It’s a proper green escape - quiet, not overlooked and full of birdsong.

You’re just five minutes from Westcombe Park Station (with frequent trains into London Bridge in 15 minutes), close to Greenwich Park and the Heath, and within reach of a wide choice of excellent state and private schools.

The street is known for its friendly feel, with a WhatsApp group where neighbours do actually know each other irl.

Homes like this don’t come along very often. Architect-designed, cleverly laid out and full of life - it’s a home that doesn’t follow the rules, and is all the better for it.
