Turney Road, Dulwich, SE21

CONTRACTS EXCHANGED. Sold by Harvey & Wheeler. This very large detached house, originally built about 100 years ago is on the market for the first time in almost 50 years.

It has been significantly extended on the ground and first floors with extensive accommodation across two floors, which includes six bedrooms, three bathrooms (one ensuite, another which may be either ensuite or for common use and another for common use), three spacious ground floor reception rooms, one being particularly spacious, 33'5 x 24'6 (10.19m x 7.46m) and a kitchen leading to a large and elegant orangery, with magnificent views of the garden and playing fields beyond.

Overall, the house has a gross internal area of approximately 5,423 sq ft (503 sq m) with a layout that works well for both entertaining and family life. There is scope for a new owner to extend further on the ground floor, the first floor and into the loft, subject to any necessary planning consents.

At the front of the house, there is a wide in and out carriage driveway, providing hardstanding for several cars and access to the garage. The rear garden is south facing, attractively landscaped and very well stocked, measures 143' x 76' (43.4m x 23.2m) with a spectacular open aspect across playing fields. Additional features include a spiral wine cellar and excellent storage. Large windows and the open aspect contribute to excellent natural light throughout the property. French doors from the larger reception room, the dining room and the orangery lead into the garden.

The property is superbly well located for all amenities of Dulwich Village, Herne Hill, local schools including Dulwich College, JAGS, Alleyn's School and various Sports Clubs. The nearest stations are North Dulwich (London Bridge, two stops to Peckham Rye for the Overground and Docklands) and Herne Hill (Victoria, Thameslink, Blackfriars and St Pancras). Brixton tube station is 1.7 miles away.

A detached house of this size, with such large gardens and so well located rarely comes to the market and viewing is strongly recommended.
