House For Sale £685,000
Simms Road, London, SE1

The first time on the market in over 25 years, this house, in need of modernisation, enjoys a mid-terrace setting with a south-facing garden with a larger and better-shaped plot than surrounding houses meaning that the ground floor could be extended the whole way across and the full width of the house (subject to the usual consents). There is also driveway access to the rear of the garden providing off-street parking. The loft could also be extended (subject to planning permission) as there is a straight roofline running the full width of the house.

On the ground floor is a welcoming hallway with space under the stairs for further storage and there is a downstairs WC as well. The good-sized living room and the kitchen, with space for dining, both benefit from glazed doors opening onto the patio and garden. Upstairs are two double bedrooms, a large single bedroom and a family bathroom.

The house benefits from gas central heating and well-appointed rooms throughout offering plentiful living space. Neighbours have extended into lofts, and because of the garden shape there is also potential to extend on the ground floor subject to planning permission.

Simms Road is a quiet, tree-lined road in a sought-after residential area in Bermondsey in the heart of SE1 with popular schools, independent shops, restaurants and cafes close by. Bermondsey tube and South Bermondsey overline stations are a short walk away. You are ideally located for getting into central London with the river Thames, Tower Bridge and London Bridge not far away. Southwark Park and Burgess Park are also nearby.
