Humber Road, Blackheath, London, SE3

A superb and rarely available double-fronted period home, offering generous and beautifully presented accommodation, a large south-facing garden and a highly desirable position moments from Greenwich Park, Blackheath and Westcombe Park Station.

Set back behind an attractive front garden, this impressive end-of-terrace house has a wonderful sense of scale and character throughout. The house retains many period features, including high ceilings, sash windows, ornate cornicing, ceiling roses, feature fireplaces, wood flooring and plantation shutters, all combining with tasteful modern finishes to create a warm and elegant family home.

The accommodation is arranged over two floors and extends to just under 2,000 sq.ft / 185.9 sq.m. The ground floor is particularly impressive, with a welcoming entrance porch and hallway, a useful downstairs WC and two beautifully proportioned front reception rooms which have been opened up to create a wonderful entertaining space. To the side is a further substantial family room measuring over 25ft in length, originally arranged as two separate rooms, now providing superb flexibility as a playroom, informal sitting room or work-from-home space.

To the rear, the kitchen/dining room is a real highlight. Measuring approximately 17ft by 17ft, it is fitted with stone composite worktops, integrated appliances, a range-style oven and tiled flooring with underfloor heating. The room opens directly onto a large terrace, creating an excellent connection with the garden and a lovely space for summer entertaining.

Upstairs, there are four well-proportioned double bedrooms, including a generous principal bedroom with built-in wardrobes and a modern en suite shower room. There is also a stylish family bathroom with limestone tiled surround, together with useful loft storage.

The rear garden is a particularly special feature. South facing, mature and arranged over different levels, it offers a large terrace immediately off the kitchen, an excellent lawned area and a wonderful elevated outlook to the rear.
