A rare and extra wide semi-detached corner house with a large south-west facing garden on this much sought-after residential street next to Nightingale Square.

This wider than average and exceptionally extended Victorian house is situated on the corner of this quiet residential road, located in the much-desired Nightingale Triangle. Architecturally designed and fully refurbished to a very high specification by the current owners, this stylish home measures over 3,000 sq. ft., and has width and proportions that are hard to find.

As you look at the front of the house you immediately realise the width this property has to offer. To your left as you enter the property is a formal reception room with classical proportions and accessed through double doors. This elegant room boasts a wide bay window, original Victorian fireplace and bespoke cabinetry.

Next you step into the quite exceptional and huge kitchen/dining room with very high ceilings and natural wood flooring with underfloor heating running throughout. To the front of this versatile living space you have a dining area with space for a significant dining table and high walls perfect for displaying art. The kitchen itself is from Harvey Jones and features many wall and base units. There are multiple high-quality integrated appliances including Miele ovens, Neff dishwasher, American-style fridge freezer and a Euro Cave wine fridge. Adjoining the kitchen is a substantial second reception room, again with high ceilings, this large space is perfect for both family life and entertaining.

The impressive ground floor culminates with full width floor to ceiling windows and bi-folding doors which lead to the bright and private south west facing garden. Measuring nearly 30 ft by 25 ft, with side access from Calbourne Road, this lovely outdoor space features matured plants, shrubbery and trees and is made all the more special as it is not overlooked to the rear. Immediately outside the kitchen is a patio area perfect for outdoor dining and is wired with an external speaker system for added entertainment. The ground floor is completed by a large utility/laundry room, a guest cloakroom and access to the cellar for essential storage space.

A particular feature of this family house is the stunning principal bedroom suite located on the first floor to the front. With two entrances from the hallway, the main bedroom area, with high ceilings, is very bright and features a large bay window, a bespoke dressing table and a built-in wardrobe. The dressing room area features a large selection of shelving, drawers and hanging space with sliding doors and benefits from a floor to ceiling window at the end. Next you step into the luxurious en suite bathroom which is tiled throughout and boasts underfloor heating. The freestanding bath sits in its own bay window and there is a separate walk in shower and double sinks set into a wall hung vanity unit.

There are three additional bedrooms on the first floor which all overlook the garden to the rear. Additionally, there is a good-sized family bathroom with a separate bath and shower. On the second floor there is a further sizeable double bedroom with light coming from the Velux to the front and the sash window to the rear. This room benefits from two built in wardrobes and its own en suite shower room.

Completing the second floor is eaves storage that measures 233 sq. ft. and could be extended to provide additional accommodation should it be desired (subject to planning permission). The current owners have solar panels installed on the rear mezzanine roof which provides the property with hot water.

Within a few minutes’ walk is Balham High Road and Bedford Hill which have multiple restaurants, cafes and boutique shops. Additionally, Hildreth Street market is moments away, as is Waitrose and the new Soho House’s Little House Balham which is opening in 2022. The wide-open spaces of Clapham Common and Wandsworth Common are just moments away with all their amenities, including tennis courts, cafes, ponds and playing fields.

There is an excellent variety of well-established independent and state schools in the area, with the closest being Holy Ghost Catholic primary school and Hornsby House, with Thomas’s Clapham and Broomwood Hall also being nearby. The property benefits from the excellent transport links of Balham mainline and underground stations, Wandsworth Common mainline and Clapham South underground all being a short walk away.
