A beautiful Victorian family home positioned on Leahurst Road in central Hither Green and moments from the station. This four bedroom period house feels is a gem full of character and period features. Designed with an artistic soul, and shaped for a busy family, a retreat for the urban commuter.
From the street, the house presents beautifully with handsome brickwork and mature planting, giving the home elegance and privacy and setting the tone for the home’s charming interiors.
The ground floor unfolds as a true heart of the home space, a beautifully open-plan arrangement spanning almost the full 502 sq ft footprint, thoughtfully designed for cooking, dining and unwinding in equal measure.
Original flooring and open fireplaces bring warmth and character throughout, while the recently fitted farmhouse-style kitchen pairs terracotta tiles with a generous island and large range cooker for a wonderfully grounded, welcoming feel. Both cosy and inviting, it is a space equally suited to long, relaxed dinners with friends as it is to quiet evenings beside the fire with a book in hand.
The garden is a truly enchanting retreat, wonderfully private and unusually generous in size, with mature planting and a series of thoughtfully arranged spaces to suit every occasion. Unfolding gradually ahead, it carries the feel of a secret garden, with the far end backing directly onto Manor Park and the River Quaggy. While currently enclosed, the vendors have, at various times, opened the garden to the water beyond, creating an even stronger connection to its peaceful setting.
Upstairs, four bedrooms offer calm and restful accommodation, each beautifully bright and airy, with high ceilings enhancing the sense of space throughout. Occupying the top floor and spanning the full width of the house, the principal suite feels particularly tranquil, complete with a Juliet balcony, column radiators and the luxury of an en suite bathroom. The remaining three bedrooms are all generously proportioned, while the main family bathroom offers a quietly luxurious feel, with striking black and white tiling, a walk in shower and a freestanding roll-top bath.
Leahurst Road in Hither Green sits within one of southeast London’s most quietly sought-after pockets, where tree-lined residential streets and a strong sense of community come together with excellent connectivity. The road has a calm, established feel, with a pleasing mix of period homes and everyday convenience on the doorstep.
Hither Green is popular largely due to the thriving community, popular schools, easy transport links and growing choice of independent shops. There are so many brilliant small businesses to mention but some of our favourites include You Don’t Bring Me Flowers, Three Sisters, Park Fever, Found Hope Store, Sarah’s Place – we could go on. Within moments of the house is a great choice of independent cafes, bars and restaurants. Also close by is Mountsfield Park which is a perfect spot for exercising or walking the dog.
Hither Green station is a very short walk from the house - with direct trains to London Bridge (1st stop approx 10 mins), Waterloo East (two stops), Charing Cross (approx 15 mins) and Cannon Street.
Ladywell is a charming neighbourhood packed with a lovely choice of independent shops, cafes and pubs, some of our favourites include The Larder, Oscars, Gently and Wilsons.
Catford centre, earmarked for significant growth and development, is becoming increasingly popular among homebuyers and investors. The area is renowned for its intact period housing, transport connections, and diverse community. Local community events are plentiful, and Goldsmith’s Fine Art Department has announced a move to the area, expediting the growth. Ambitious regeneration plans aim to make Catford one of the most vibrant and green town centres in London. Favourite local haunts include Good Food, La Pizzeria Italiana and Taro. Transport connections are excellent; the Catford and Catford Bridge stations provide easy access to central London; from Catford the network runs Thameslink services to London Blackfriars and Sevenoaks, while Catford Bridge Southeastern services run to London Bridge, Charing Cross and Hayes.
There is a strong choice of local independent shops, cafes, bars and restaurants, some of our favourites include Good Food, La Pizzeria Italiana and Taro.
These South East London pockets are also home to a choice of green spaces, conservation areas and local arts and community festivals.
Slightly further afield Blackheath, Brockley and Greenwich are also a weekend’s walking distance.
