In addition you'll enjoy utility room, two bathrooms, shower room and a large master en suite. Original features include wood panelling, ceiling architraves, mantels and some of the loveliest lead glass windows we've had the pleasure to see. The front patio is landscaped and mature and offers dappled shade throughout the year - it's the perfect spot for entertaining in the milder months. A separate garage is accessible from across the patio. Dulwich Village and its pubs, cafes and exclusive leafiness is easily accessed as is the inimitable Dulwich Park. Norwood Park is just a few minutes ramble with its mature trees and striking views across our fair city. You're also within a five minute stroll of the abundant amenities of Gipsy Hill and less than a 20 minute ramble to bountiful Crystal Palace. Transport-wise you're 8 minutes amble from Gipsy Hill station which has swift, regular services to London Victoria and also Crystal Palace for the fab London Overground Line. Dulwich and Sydenham Golf Club is a fine spot for some R&R and you're within easy reach of Dulwich College.
Oaks Avenue curves gently upward from Gipsy Hill with attractive period homes on either side. Your secure gated entrance opens and leads you down a private drive, shared with only two other properties. The exterior reveals itself stretching impressively and including some magnificent original lead detail casement windows and red brickwork. An expert extension adds considerably to the original tennis pavilion and has been executed with sympathy and style.
The main entrance hall greets you with fabulous wooden detail, panelling and twin original feature mantels. Adjoining to the right is a large reception with further mantel and French doors that open to the front patio. The far side of the entrance hall invites you to a pleasant, front-facing study which in turn leads to a second hallway where you find a slick contemporary steel staircase and plenty of space for a seating area. The super-sized L-shaped living area adjoins and supplies seemingly endless space for cooking, lounging and formal dining. Three separate sets of French doors open out to the front and side patios.
Wrapping back around, walk to the far side of the study to find a further seating area/utility area leading back to the entrance hall. Off here you find a handy laundry room and bathroom. a second set of stairs leads upward to the first floor. The first of your double bedrooms sits next to a modern bathroom. Fitted storage on the landing precedes bedroom number two, another lovely double sized room. Further along the landing you find a third bedroom, currently used as a lavish dressing room. Bedroom four proceeds to a handy shower room and last but certainly not least comes the dual aspect master suite which includes an adjoining en suite bathroom.
Kingswood Primary School is a five minute walk and was rated OFSTED Outstanding in 2013. The morning commute to the school's charming lower site (nursery included), is a delightful 10 mins stroll through beautiful Norwood park. The park enjoys a playground, climbing frames and water play areas. There are football and skate parks too to really tire them out! The views across London are really something! Strolling by rolling grassy slopes you'll spy woodpeckers, squirrels and other wildlife in the treetops. The high street is includes a GP surgery, pharmacies, hairdresser, pubs, grocers and one of the best Indian takeaways in London (Indian Dining Club). The Gipsy Hill Tap Room provides a stylish social space - it's just off the high street. Even closer is the Paxton which has a lovely friendly vibe.
