3 bed terraced house for sale

Murillo Road, London SE13

The Kitchen's Bright And Sociable, The Garden's Private And The Street Has Neighbours Who’ll Soon Become Good Friends. This lovely Hither Green home is in superb condition, with Manor House Gardens, great schools and three stations all within easy reach.

The scent of jasmine drifts in through the open French doors, mingling with fresh coffee from the kitchen. Out front, someone’s always up for a chat, and in December, neighbours gather together with mince pies, mulled wine and carols on the doorstep.

At the front of the house, the bay-fronted living room feels calm, cosy and full of character - with wooden shutters and double-glazed sash windows installed in 2017. It's a peaceful space to unwind while the rest of life carries on in the kitchen.

The sociable kitchen-diner at the rear is bright and welcoming, with custom bench seating, an integrated double oven and induction hob, plus French doors leading out to the garden.

It’s where the dining room would have originally been - so you get the benefit of high ceilings and more generous proportions. The old kitchen space has been cleverly repurposed as a utility room with w/c - tucked neatly to the side and ideal for busy households.

Upstairs, you'll find two double bedrooms of almost identical size and a third room currently used as a study. The bathroom was completely refitted in 2024 with a clean, modern and stylish finish.

The storage is excellent here, with a walk-in cellar, a custom-fitted cupboard on the landing and a loft that was boarded in 2018. There's plenty of space now - and even more potential to extend upwards, subject to the usual planning permissions.

The east-facing garden was fully landscaped in 2020 and gets morning and early afternoon sun, lasting until around 4.30 or 5pm in summer. It’s planted with olive, jasmine, hydrangeas, ferns and grasses, and the paved seating area makes it easy to enjoy. Surrounded by other mature gardens, it feels private and secure.

The community spirit here is genuinely something special. There’s an annual summer street party, a festive advent window trail with carols each December, and a neighbourhood WhatsApp group. It’s friendly, relaxed and ready to welcome you into the fold.

You’re in the catchment for two highly rated primary schools - St Margaret’s in Lee and Trinity in Hither Green - both are less than a ten minute walk away. Manor House Gardens is only a five minute walk away and is a proper local hub, with a café, playground, tennis courts and duck pond.

Blackheath, Hither Green and Lewisham stations are all within walking distance, and it’s just five minutes by bus to the DLR at Lewisham. You’ve got quick access to the City, Canary Wharf or the West End and plenty of options - without ever needing to jump in the car.

If you do have a car there’s plenty of on-street parking. There’s an EV charging point further up Murillo Road along with a bikehangar (you'll need to apply to the council for a space but it’s only £5 per month).

If you’re heading home from the station you can pick up something for dinner from Sainsburys or one of the independent shops on Staplehurst Road. Or you can just stop off at one of the pubs or restaurants for a bite to eat en-route.

Foodies will love heading up to Blackheath Farmers Market on a Sunday. It’s a pleasant 20 minute stroll where you can work up a healthy appetite on the way.

But you don’t have to limit your Blackheath visits to a Sunday, there’s plenty of independent shops, cafés and restaurants to attract you seven days a week.

This is a lovely family home that gives you space, character and community in equal measure. Get in touch and we’d love to show you around.
