This Incredible Telegraph Hill Home Is A Treat For All Five Of Your Senses. The recording studio is an obvious draw for recording artists, producers or anyone with a passion for sound. But this impressive Victorian semi has many more superb stimuli to offer you.

There are so many visual treats to discover both inside this elegant family home and in the spacious garden. It’s hard to pick favourites but the beautiful living room fireplace deserves a special mention. As does the sunset views of Goldsmiths from the upper floors.

If you’re expecting us to mention the professional recording studio & vocal booth as the aural delight, you’re sadly mistaken. Given it’s fully soundproofed the sophisticated basement setup is probably the quietest part of the whole house!!

Instead, we’ll highlight the tap-tap-tap of the greater spotted woodpeckers that frequent the garden. Or the crackle of the cosy wood fire warming the kitchen on a cold winter’s night.

With five distinct areas, the west facing garden is the perfect place to hang out or relax on a warm summer's evening.

But it’s also home to a number of home grown tasty treats, with strawberries, raspberries, rhubarb and a mature pear tree all flourishing alongside a selection of vegetables.

The kitchen is sure to be the social hub of the home.

You’ll be drawn to this welcoming room by a range of tempting aromas, from a freshly brewed pot of coffee to a delicious Sunday roast.

It’s not the only place where you’ll encounter multiple aromatic delights.

Head into the garden BBQ and dining area and you’ll be met by the almond aroma of clematis, giving way to the heady sweet scent of honeysuckle. Continue your journey further into the 30 metre garden for a fresh blast of eucalyptus by the far terrace.

When you run your hands along the bespoke kitchen cabinetry, handmade by The Dovetail Joint, you’ll appreciate their superb craftsmanship and skill.

As the open plan kitchen is the social hub of the home, the first floor sitting room can become a quiet space to relax. Grab a book from the handmade bookshelves and lose yourself for a precious few hours.

When you climb the impressive Portland Stone steps and enter into the wide and welcoming hallway, you’ll get an immediate sense of the love and care lavished throughout this gorgeous family home.

The ground floor is dominated by the open plan kitchen / diner and sitting room.

It’s where you’ll all love to spend time together - whether it’s grabbing a quick slice of toast in the morning or catching up at the end of a long day.

The unusual layout - with the kitchen at the front of the house rather than the back - means you can watch the world go by as you cook or relax on the sofas by the bay window.

The sitting room at the rear overlooks the gardens and even has a small terrace where you can sit with a coffee before heading down to the fabulous pergola and seating area below.

The first floor has the spacious master bedroom overlooking the mature trees of the back gardens, the sitting room (currently used as a library/TV room) and a deliciously retro family bathroom.

The owners have fully embraced the 1970s styling of the wood panelled bath and ceiling and contrasted this with a modern walk-in shower. It’s an unusual combination but it works!

There are three further double bedrooms on the first floor, along with a small bathroom. The views from the two front bedrooms are to-die-for. With no properties opposite to block your view, they offer an unrestricted panorama towards the distant Goldsmiths College.

The basement is devoted to a professional recording studio and vocal booth, with a separate lounge and even a small self contained kitchen.

The high-spec studio spaces were installed by leading acoustic designers White Mark in 2010. The cutting edge setup is perfect for audio professionals or film-makers and with separate side access, collaborators can come and go without disturbing your family.

Visitors to your home (be they friends, family or colleagues) can take advantage of the two off street parking spaces. They can even hook up to the EV charging point for a quick refuel whilst they’re with you.

This immaculate period property has so much to offer and being in Telegraph Hill makes it an even more attractive package.

It’s a creative hotspot, thanks in part to the generations of Goldsmiths students who’ve settled here to bring up their families.

Your lives will be enriched by participating in the inspirational annual Telegraph Hill Arts Festival, which fosters a true sense of community spirit.

Your fantastic back garden has so much to explore but if you prefer your outdoor space on a larger scale, to let the kids (or the dog!) burn off some energy, you’re spoiled for choice when it comes to local parks just moments away.

If you time your weekend trip to the park just right you could grab a slice of delicious D4100 pizza from the Hill Station Café and wash it down with a glass of something chilled from one of the many excellent pubs.

There’s so much on offer in Telegraph Hill you may not want to leave the area. When you do need to head further afield you’ve got plenty of public transport options nearby.

New Cross Gate station is a 6 minute walk away, where you can jump on a train which will speed you to Canada water in 6 minutes, London Bridge in only 11 or on to the Elizabeth line in 13.

It’s always good to have a Plan B and Nunhead station gives you options. It’s around 15 minutes walk (past the parks) and has direct trains to St Pancras, Blackfriars and Victoria.

With this being such a family-friendly home you’ll be delighted by the choice of great local schools.

Edmund Waller Primary School (rated “Good” by Ofsted) offers a nurturing and creative environment where your kids can explore their full potential. And it’s only a 5 minute walk away.

There’s a wide choice of excellent schools for older kids too, including Haberdashers' Aske's Hatcham College, which is only a 10 minute walk or 5 minute bike ride away (also rated “Good” by Ofsted).

This is a truly stunning and unique family home in a creative and vibrant community where you’re sure to receive a very warm welcome.

If you’re keen to give your five senses a real treat, call to arrange a private viewing.
