5 bed detached house for sale

Denmark Avenue, Wimbledon, London SW19

Located on a peaceful tree-lined residential road in Wimbledon, this enchanting mid-Victorian 1860's detached family house offers beautifully balanced accommodation arranged over three floors, full of character and warmth with generous proportions.

A wide and welcoming central entrance hall sets the tone, leading to a series of elegant reception spaces. At the front of the house, a formal dining room and separate study enjoy high ceilings and original detailing, while to the rear, a more informal reception room opens onto a covered terrace - perfect for relaxed entertaining and enjoying the garden year-round.

The kitchen/breakfast room is positioned to the rear and overlooks the garden, offering excellent potential for future extension or redesign, subject to the usual consents. A large cellar adds further flexibility for storage or conversion.

Upstairs, the first floor comprises four bright and airy, well-proportioned bedrooms, served by a spacious family bathroom with a separate bath and shower enclosure. The top floor delivers an unexpected architectural flourish - a dramatic vaulted reception space flooded with natural light, ideal as a secondary living area, studio or additional bedroom. This level also features a further bedroom and bathroom, making it well-suited for guests, older children or live-in help.

The south west facing garden is a true highlight, offering a tranquil private setting with plenty of space for children to play or for al-fresco dining in warmer months.

Further benefits include a double-length attached garage, ample eaves storage and off-street parking for multiple vehicles.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a distinctive period home in a sought-after location, offering space, charm and potential in equal measure.
