Ringmore Rise
CHAIN FREE SALE – Occupying a prime corner plot at the end of the highly sought-after Ringmore Rise, this attractive three-bedroom 1930s semi-detached family home enjoys breath-taking panoramic views across the London skyline.
Positioned within the desirable Tewkesbury Lodge Estate, renowned for its strong sense of community and peaceful residential setting, the property benefits from exceptional privacy and seclusion thanks to its elevated position and wraparound plot.
Set back above street level, the house offers superb kerb appeal with handsome double-glazed bay windows, a generous entrance porch and a beautifully elevated outlook. A street-level garage and private driveway provide valuable off-road parking, while side access leads through to the garden. Steps rise through the neatly maintained front garden to the entrance, where the spectacular skyline views can already be appreciated — a feature enjoyed from several rooms throughout the house.
The property also offers significant scope for extension into the loft space and above the garage, subject to the necessary planning permissions (STPP).
Entering via the original front door, a wide and welcoming hallway provides an immediate sense of space and character, complete with understairs storage and a side window allowing for excellent natural light.
The front reception room and rear dining room are connected via bifold doors, creating a wonderfully versatile entertaining space. Both rooms retain original parquet flooring, high ceilings with dado rails and excellent proportions. The front reception room is centred around an attractive exposed brick fireplace, while the large bay window frames far-reaching skyline views and floods the room with natural light. To the rear, the dining room features a large bay patio door opening directly onto the garden.
The kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of wall and base units providing ample storage and workspace on both sides. A side window sits above the sink, while a patio door provides further access out to the garden.
The outside space is a particular highlight, wrapping around both the rear and side of the house. A paved pathway extends around the property via the side return and leads to the rear access of the garage.
The rear garden enjoys an easterly aspect, capturing the morning sun, and rises gently to an elevated patio area surrounded by mature planting, shrubs and greenery. To the front and side of the garage is an additional lawned garden area with a westerly-facing aspect, ideal for enjoying the afternoon and evening sunshine.
Upstairs, a bright and airy landing benefits from a large side window and provides access to the substantial loft space, currently ideal for storage and offering excellent extension potential (STPP).
The family bathroom has been well maintained and comprises a white three-piece suite with shower over bath, vanity basin unit, airing cupboard and a frosted double-glazed window for natural light and ventilation. Adjacent is a separate guest WC, also with its own window.
There are three bedrooms on the first floor, including two generous double bedrooms of almost equal size, both featuring bay windows and fitted storage. The rear bedroom enjoys peaceful green views over the garden, while the front bedroom captures truly spectacular panoramic views across the London skyline. With its westerly aspect, the sunsets from this room are particularly special.
The third bedroom also benefits from the same magical skyline outlook through a charming smaller bay window with a deep sill — the perfect spot to sit and admire the view. This room would work equally well as a child’s bedroom, guest room or home office.
Ringmore Rise is a peaceful, community-focused street conveniently positioned for an excellent selection of local amenities and highly regarded schools, including Fairlawn Primary School, Horniman Primary School, Dulwich College, Alleyn's School and St Dunstan's College.
A vibrant selection of independent cafés, restaurants and shops can be found nearby in Honor Oak Park, East Dulwich and Forest Hill, while beautiful green spaces including Horniman Gardens and Peckham Rye are all within easy reach.
Transport links are excellent, with Honor Oak Park and Forest Hill railway stations approximately a five-minute walk away, providing Overground services to Canada Water, Shoreditch High Street and Highbury & Islington, alongside National Rail connections to London Bridge, Victoria and Charing Cross.
