You’re Sure To Fall In Love With This Gorgeous Edwardian Terrace. It’s a fabulous first home, with space and versatility for a young family too. It’s on a friendly Hither Green street that’s so close to the station and “Outstanding” local schools.
This superb two bedroom terrace is ready for you to move in and be welcomed into the friendly Hither Green community.
You’ll get a real sense of the way it tastefully combines the best of old and new even before you step inside. The low maintenance front garden has modern porcelain tiles with the original Victorian tiles used on the path to the front door.
The welcoming hall exudes period charm, with high ceilings, decorative cornicing and the original wood floor that’s been sanded and painted with Farrow & Ball modern eggshell to protect it whilst also bringing out the gorgeous grain.
The traditional two reception room layout remains true to the original Edwardian design.
The bay fronted living room is a cosy place to chill out and relax, or just sit back and take in the original floor, pretty fireplace and decorative tiling in the surround.
There’s a similar sized dining room, again with original wood flooring, a pretty fireplace and a bold use of colour which gives the room a feeling of timeless grandeur.
By way of contrast, the kitchen at the rear is thoroughly stylish and modern. It’s a lovely, light and bright space, thanks to the crittal style door at the rear which lets in plenty of natural light from the back garden.
The gorgeous kitchen units, Belfast sink and quartz worktop have been fitted by the current owners, incorporating plenty of neat touches like housing the Smeg range in the chimney breast. It’s practical too, with underfloor heating meaning there’s no need for any radiators taking up space.
There’s plenty of room in the kitchen but if you wanted to create a more sociable space to cook and eat together, you do have options. There’s the potential to increase the size of the kitchen with a side return extension, like many neighbours have done (subject to planning permission, of course.).
The south facing sun trap back garden has been recently landscaped. It’s a zero maintenance, pretty outdoor space, designed for entertaining.
It’s also practical, with space down the side that’s perfect for securely storing bikes and other outdoorsy stuff.
The first floor has two bedrooms and a fabulous family bathroom.
The front bedroom gets loads of light from the bay window. It’s got the original wood floors and sash windows but with modern shutters and practical fitted wardrobes as more recent additions.
The second bedroom (currently being used as a super-cute nursery) has modern double glazed sash windows and the original Victorian wardrobes
The luxurious bathroom is a fabulous space to enjoy a relaxing soak at the end of a busy day. It’s both modern but traditional, created by opening up the separate bathroom and w.c. to create a gorgeous room with both a freestanding bath & shower.
It’s worth spending some time exploring the fabulous Hither Green location.
It’s only a five minute walk to Hither Green station, it really is almost impossible to miss your train…even if you leave it to the last minute!
Assuming you make it to the platform on time, direct trains only take 8 minutes to get to London Bridge or 12 minutes if you catch the train that also stops at Lewisham and New Cross.
If you need a Plan B, there’s a bus stop at the end of the street with buses up to Lewisham - for the shops and also the DLR. If you’re feeling fit (or want to work up an appetite) you can walk it in 20 minutes.
Brightside Road is a quiet street that’s not used as a cut through so children can safely play out in the summer.
That might be one reason why this is the kind of friendly street where everyone knows each other’s names. There’s an active WhatsApp group that’s used to plan get-togethers and activities throughout the year, including a summer street party, a Christmas window display competition and the “Frightside Road” Halloween fun for kids of all ages.
If you have young children or are thinking of starting a family soon, the “Outstanding” Brindishe Green Primary School is literally round the corner - almost as close as the station.
Older kids have a little further to travel but there’s a great choice of schools in Lewisham and Blackheath - Trinity CofE School being closest.
Brightside Road is also in a handy spot if you like getting outside and enjoying green space, with both Mountsfield Park and Lewisham Park less than 10 minutes walk away.
There’s plenty of reasons to fall in love with this gorgeous Brightside Road property - I’m expecting plenty of interest so call to arrange a private viewing.
