5 bed semi-detached house for sale

Lanercost Road, London SW2

This impeccably presented and well-maintained home offers buyers a perfect balance of period charm and modern amenities. Updated by the current owner, this handsome red-brick house must be viewed to fully appreciate its quality.

Inside, a wide and attractive tiled hallway, complete with ornate cornicing to the ceilings, leads to a large double reception room spanning the length of the house. The feature fireplace is complemented by new French doors that open to the terrace and fill the room with light. Oak flooring runs through the reception rooms and bedrooms, bringing warmth and character. On the other side of the hallway, a third reception room offers more flexible living space.
To the rear, a sleek, modern kitchen/diner is flooded with natural light and opens to the sunny, private terrace. A handy guest WC and useful understairs storage completes the picture.

Outside, the south-facing terrace opens onto a landscaped garden with two versatile garden rooms: One currently housing a gym and the other a large hot tub.

The upper floors provide five generously sized bedrooms and three bathrooms, including two en suites. There is bespoke cabinetry in four of the bedrooms, air conditioning to the kitchen, gym, and three bedrooms, and double glazing throughout — save for the original stained glass front door and side windows. With both modern and period features and its flexible double-fronted layout, the home is perfect for both everyday living and entertaining.
