Detached house for sale in London SW18, 7 Bedroom

A truly compelling prospect on the magnificent Spencer Park Estate, this property, extending to just shy of 4,950 square feet, represents prestige, tradition and access to a superb private park.

Only for the most discerning of residents, this detached property is laced with legacy, having a spectacular array of traditional features. Set back from Spencer Park this property faces southwest over the green and peaceful plains of Wandsworth Common. A sense of real opulence is further instilled as soon as one enters the ground’s gravel driveway, which has ample space for several vehicles, along with a private garage.

Upon entrance to the main house, one is confronted with an impressive entrance hall with ceiling heights in excess of three meters, original windows and to either side, a double aspect reception and a kitchen. Crucially the oversized windows ensure that the entire floor-plate is doused in optimal natural sunlight from front to back.

Towards the rear of the ground floor are French windows from the kitchen leading onto the outside space below. The private gardens extend to over one hundred feet in length and over sixty feet in width. Beyond the private extent of the gardens, and included in the freehold of this property, is private access to the botanical sanctuary of Spencer Park. Spencer Park is arguably one of the most desirable communal gardens in London and is further fitted with a fully functioning tennis court. At an area of approximately 1.53 hectares (3.8 acres) and formerly part of the Estate of the 5th Earl of Spencer, this private park can only be accessed by the residents themselves.

The upper floors lose virtually no ceiling height (compared with the ground floor) and house bedrooms with clear views over Wandsworth Common and Spencer Park. The master bedroom is positioned, on the first floor and looks southwest over Wandsworth Common. The master bedroom is further endowed with an en suite bathroom.

The remaining internal space is dedicated to three further double bedrooms on the first floor, and three further double bedrooms on the second floor, along with an auxiliary kitchen. In addition there is further potential (subject to the necessary planning consents) to expand the internal space further in the loft.
