4 bed property for sale

85, Colfe Road SE23

A beautifully presented and fully extended four-bedroom family home, arranged over three floors, on the ever-popular Colfe Road, SE23. Behind its classic 1930s façade with bay windows and plantation shutters, this mid-terrace house has been thoughtfully extended and comprehensively updated by the current owners, combining period character with a modern specification. The property also benefits from new windows, shutters, a composite front door installed in 2021 and a new Vaillant combi boiler installed in December 2023. Set back from the pavement behind a low brick wall, the property is approached over a neatly paved front garden with planted borders, giving a smart first impression and space for bin and bike storage. The ground floor opens into a bright front reception room with a bay window, original feature fireplace and wood flooring, flowing through to a spacious open-plan kitchen/dining room, the heart of the home. The kitchen is fitted with sleek gloss units, granite worktops and integrated appliances, with French doors leading directly out to the garden. New double-panel radiators have been fitted throughout this floor. A separate utility room with pantry storage and a downstairs WC complete the floor, along with a useful understairs storage cupboard. Outside, a private, mainly-laid-to-lawn rear garden extends to around 34ft and benefits from a private access way to the rear, raised planted borders, recently renewed fencing and gate, and a paved patio ideal for entertaining. Upstairs, the first floor offers three further bedrooms, including one with fitted wardrobes and a stylish family bathroom with underfloor heating. The second floor is given over entirely to a substantial principal bedroom suite: A generous 21'4 x 12'4 room with eaves storage, fitted wardrobes and its own underfloor-heated bathroom. Located on a quiet, well-regarded residential road, the property is approximately 0.8 miles from Forest Hill station, offering direct services to London Bridge, Victoria, Canada Water, Shoreditch, Whitechapel and Highbury & Islington. Forest Hill's popular high street, with its mix of independent cafés, restaurants and gastropubs, together with a choice of sought-after local schools, is just a short walk away.
