Description
Splendid Early Victorian Three Bedroom Home With Pretty Garden.

This fantastic three bedroom period home retains much of its original charm. The property is end of terrace, notably wider than the average and spread generously over three floors. Built circa 1845, it was once home to world famous pantomime-pioneer Oscar Barrett. The gracious interior boasts original sash windows, ornate wooden wall panelling and those wonderful high ceilings associated with the era. A contemporary kitchen, bathroom, utility and shower room have been politely added and there's plenty of storage too. The current owners have worked from a tasteful pallet of Farrow and Ball and Little Green Paint shades to create a sympathetic home sympathetic to the era. A pretty rear garden and handy side access are the cherries on the cake. Stumbling upon Kenbury Street, in a prime pocket of SE5, you’ll be charmed by the neat row of early Victorian homes. It’s a short street, found just off Coldharbour Lane and within walking distance of numerous transport links including Loughborough Junction and Denmark Hill Stations.

The front aspect reception, presented in Farrow and Ball's 'Calluna', has a most elegant original ceiling rose, cornicing and lovely wooden wall detail. The multi-pane sash window has it original shutter casing below.

Beyond the dining area you find a well stocked modern kitchen pretty in 'Middleton Pink'. Touchworthy cherry wood counters sit atop sleek white cabinets.
