Vanbrugh Terrace - A detached Victorian Grade II listed house with six bedrooms.
Description
Positioned in arguably one of the best locations of St John’s Park, this extraordinary six-bedroom detached family home boasts breath-taking views of the verdant Heath and Greenwich Park. Spanning nearly 6,800 sq. ft arranged across five floors and situated within a magnificent 130ft long walled garden, this exceptional property offers an ideal combination of historic charm with modern sophisticated spacious living.
Set on a generous 0.29 acre plot, the property features a private driveway with ample parking and beautifully landscaped gardens, secured by an electronic sliding gate. The main façade has been beautifully restored maintaining its Victorian elegance, showcasing original features such as box sash windows. The grand entrance is adorned with Portland stone steps leading to an impressive four-panelled front door, flanked by pillars and bespoke stained glasswork by Edgar Phillips.
Renovated to an incredibly high standard by renowned interior designer Charles Leon, the home seamlessly blends historic architectural charm with contemporary luxury. Modern touches blend seamlessly, with Mark Wilkinson cabinets, polished limestone in the ensuite and polished plaster walls. This beautiful home is also equipped with state-of-the-art technology including a Creston audio-visual control system, an integrated Bose sound system, and advanced security features including CCTV.
Upon entry, the entrance hall provides access to a library morning room with bespoke fitted bookcases including a thoughtfully positioned sofa in the canted bay window, as well as a dining room and cloakroom. A staircase descends to the lower-ground floor featuring a Mark Wilkinson kitchen with a central island and ample space for a dining table or breakfast nook. Also situated on this floor is a cold room/walk-in fridge, utility room, hot yoga/reformer Pilates studio, an ensuite shower room, and an informal family room with French doors opening onto the landscaped gardens. Below this, the lower basement offers a wine cellar, plant room and premium designer appliances.
On the first floor, the drawing room is situated to the front of the property to enjoy the best views of the Heath and is a masterpiece of restoration, with original French oak floors laid in a decorative pattern. A working fireplace with marble chimneypieces provides a cosy and warm atmosphere for family gatherings in the winter months. The principal bedroom suite encompasses the entire rear of the first floor and features a walk-in wardrobe and an elegantly designed en-suite bathroom encased in polished limestone with a separate oval bath. An integrated steam room and shower enclosure are accompanied by separate sinks with ample storage and a private balcony overlooking the enchanting rear garden.
The second floor is comprised of four bedrooms, each with sash windows, a family bathroom with a freestanding bath, a separate shower and an en-suite shower room. The loft has been carefully boarded and insulated, offering extensive built-in storage compartments.
