Townsend Road, London SE3

Tenure: Leasehold

Nestled within Berkeley’s celebrated Meridian Gate enclave, this three-storey townhouse blends modern elegance with family-friendly warmth. Flooded with natural light from its floor-to-ceiling glazing and warmed by engineered oak-effect flooring, the home unfolds around a central oak-tread staircase—each level offering its own blend of style, comfort and functionality. A secure gated drive ensures your car is always close at hand yet safely tucked away.

Ground Floor: Effortless Entertaining & Everyday Ease

  Ascend to a generously proportioned living room, where south-facing windows open onto a slate-tiled terrace framed by low box hedges. Ideal for alfresco mornings or relaxed evenings, the terrace extends your living space outdoors. A third double bedroom and its ensuite shower room complete this level, both drenched in natural light.
  
  

Second Floor: Serene Retreats & Thoughtful Storage

  The top floor presents two bright double bedrooms, each with its own ensuite. The master suite is a true retreat, featuring wall-to-wall soft-close wardrobes with mirrored panels, plus a freestanding bath and separate rainfall shower. Neutral carpets and a palette of pale greys and whites ensure a calm, cohesive finish throughout.
  
  

Residents enjoy the tight-knit feel of Kidbrooke Village—morning runs through Sutcliffe Park’s leafy trails, leisurely strolls to the new village centre’s artisan cafés and shops, and a swift 16-minute train into the heart of London from nearby Kidbrooke station.
