Upper Tooting Park, London, SW17

A substantial Edwardian house, c. 2,352 sq. ft, close to Balham High Road and Wandsworth Common, featuring grand proportions and providing an opportunity to update and extend subject to the usual consents. On the market for the first time in over 40 years with no onward chain.

Laid out over four floors, including the cellar, this late Victorian/early Edwardian house benefits from high ceilings and original features. The imposing staircase is set back in the hallway and gives the house a grand feel. The current layout, over four floors (including cellar), comprises four double bedrooms, an additional dressing room/study room and bathroom. Entertaining space on the ground floor includes a formal reception room, with coffered ceiling and original Art Nouveau style fireplace, a large dining room with French doors onto the garden. The kitchen and utility room can be found at the rear of the property, along with a ground floor W.C. and additional garden access. The large garden would offer the ability to extend, subject to the usual permissions, without compromising the outside space.
