"Light pours into the space through enormous triple-glazed sliding Internorm windows, providing access to a low-maintenance rear garden.  At the front of the property is an intimate living room with original parquet flooring."

This fantastic Mid-Century townhouse with garden part of an attractive terrace situated around a quiet communal green, a short walk from Forest Hill station. Originally designed in the 1960s, this four-bedroom house has recently been the subject of a complete renovation, with internal accommodation extending to 1,274 sq ft over three floors.

Entry is on the ground floor through an original fluted glass front door, into an expansive, newly fitted kitchen with maple flooring. Minimalist units line the kitchen around a central birch ply island with induction hob. Light pours into the space through enormous triple-glazed sliding Internorm windows, providing access to a low-maintenance rear garden.  At the front of the property is an intimate living room with original parquet flooring.

Stairs to the upper levels retain their original hardwood balustrades.  On the first floor, a translucent fluted panel amplifies the sense of space, pouring light in from a former reception room that has been adapted for use as a textile studio. On the same level is large bedroom and bathroom.

On the second floor is a master bedroom with panoramic views of London’s skyline, a rear-facing bedroom, overlooking the garden and a shower room with a walk-in shower. The property has plenty of storage throughout, including an attic and a bike storage unit.

Forest Hill has become an extremely popular area of south-east London with the help of the London Overground extension. As a result, there are plenty of very good independent cafes, restaurants and pubs in the area. The Horniman Museum and Gardens is a popular destination for young families, with a child-friendly café, anthropological museum and farmers’ market every Saturday morning.

There are a number of ‘outstanding’ primary schools in the Forest Hill area, including Fairlawn Primary and Eliot Bank Primary.

The nearest station is Forest Hill, running London Overground services to Highbury & Islington via Shoreditch High Street and Canada Water (for connections to the Jubilee Line). Southern Trains runs direct services to London Bridge with a journey time of around 20 minutes.
