Magdalen Road SW18

We are delighted to offer this superb semi-detached family home which is one of four “Arts & Crafts” houses situated at the northern end of Magdalen Road. The property offers over 1,850 sq. ft of accommodation with scope for a purchaser to refurbish and substantially extend to create a wonderful family home (subject to the usual planning consents being obtained).

This rare property is set back from the road and benefits from generous off-street parking and offers tremendous proportions while retaining many original features throughout. Adjacent to the wide entrance hall sits a large reception room with a rectangular bay window to the front and a charming original window looking to the side of the house. To the rear is a second reception room which would make a superb final dining room or an additional family space and features French doors leading to the garden. Next door you find the modern kitchen with an excellent array of base and wall units with plenty of storage. There is countertop seating with granite surfaces throughout and various appliances, both integrated and free standing. The kitchen provides access to both the garden and also the side passage of the property which is ideal for deliveries. Completing the ground floor, you find a guest cloakroom, utility room and spacious boiler room. There is the potential to extend the rear of the property to make the ground floor even more substantial, which of course is subject to planning permission.

The garden is a rare delight and measures over 50ft in length and nearly 30ft in width. The mature lawn runs the length of the garden and is bordered by flowerbeds which feature mature shrubs, plants and trees. There is a decked and paved area just outside the kitchen and second reception room which gives excellent space for outdoor entertaining and summer living. Being semi-detached there is side access from the front of the house, where you also find a pretty front garden and off-street parking for at least one car.

The first floor comprises four double bedrooms, a shower room and a family bathroom. To the front of the house is a large double bedroom with a fireplace and bay window. Adjacent is a further bedroom with access to eaves storage. To the rear is a further generous double bedroom with views over the garden below. Next door is the fourth bedroom which is situated adjacent to the generous shower room which in turn is location next to the family bathroom.

A particular feature and opportunity with this property is the undeveloped loft space which currently measures 721 sq. ft. With the correct planning consents being obtained, one can create considerable additional accommodation with excellent ceiling height, which could include two more large bedrooms and another family bathroom.

Magdalen Road is located on the doorstep of Wandsworth Common and close to the shops and restaurants of Bellevue Road and Northcote Road. Wandsworth Common provides open green spaces and includes superb amenities such as playgrounds, ponds and a popular café. There are also excellent local sporting amenities for children, including Battersea Ironsides junior rugby, Spencer cricket and hockey, and Magdalen Park tennis clubs.

There are good transport links by bus on Trinity Road and trains from Wandsworth Common and Earlsfield mainline stations into the City and the West End. The area is exceptionally well served by private and state schools and falls within the Beatrix Potter catchment area (subject to change yearly).
