The house
Located on Darfield Road in SE4 this house is well suited to families who are seeking multiple travel options, (Crofton station approx. 0.1 mile away and other stations in the locality), and a selection of highly acclaimed schools (both state and private).
This beautiful five-bedroom terraced, period house offers over 1600 sq ft of space. The ground floor is a particularly spacious layout with a double reception and a kitchen diner of approximately 16ft.
The house has been architecturally designed by Selencky Parsons Architects a highly acclaimed local firm based in Brockley. Selencky Parsons have designed a stunning loft extension and kitchen / diner which are two of the standout features of the house. Included in the design are some lovely features showing the attention to detail when the house was extended.
A particularly striking feature of the design is the glazed rear wall and patio door in the kitchen which opens on to the garden. This provides a seamless connection to the private outside space rarely seen in houses along this road.
The rear garden extends over 35 ft and has a side return which has become popular in recent years for extensions, (subject to any consents required).
There are several striking features all visible in the images and considered in the floor plan, however there are many features not visible in the images some of which we will list below. We advise buyers to view the house to fully appreciate the unique features on offer.
