GUIDE PRICE £1,650,000 - £1,700,000
A grand, detached double-fronted Corbett house occupying a commanding position on one of Eltham’s most desirable roads, directly overlooking the wide, green expanse of Eltham Park South. Offered to the market chain free, this impressive period home is rich in character and architectural detail, showcasing all the hallmarks of a classic Corbett build – from its handsome brick frontage and elegant bay windows to the high ceilings and well-proportioned rooms within.
While the property would benefit from some modernisation, it presents an exceptional opportunity for a discerning buyer to restore and enhance its original charm, with immense scope to extend or reconfigure (STPC) to suit contemporary family living. The existing layout already offers generous and versatile accommodation, ideal for growing families or those seeking a substantial home with the potential to tailor it to their own tastes.
Many period features remain, including ornate cornicing, feature fireplaces, and traditional joinery, adding to the sense of grandeur and authenticity throughout. Natural light floods the interior thanks to large windows and a double-aspect design, while the spacious entrance hall and two generous reception rooms set an elegant tone for the rest of the house.
To the rear, a delightful west-facing garden provides a peaceful retreat and captures the afternoon and evening sun – perfect for entertaining or family time outdoors. The property also benefits from off-street parking, a rare and welcome advantage in this sought-after setting.
The location is exceptional. Eltham Park South, with its open lawns and tree-lined avenues, lies just across the road, offering an enviable outlook and access to green space. The area is home to a strong community, outstanding schools, and an excellent range of local amenities, including cafés, independent shops, and convenient transport links into central London.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a truly special detached Corbett home on one of Eltham’s finest roads – a property with timeless appeal, abundant character, and the potential to become a magnificent family residence for generations to come.
