Semi-detached house for sale in Sunderland Road, Forest Hill SE23

Enter extension 1201 when calling on this property. ​A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial double fronted seven bedroom Victorian house located on a highly desirable residential road moments away from Forest Hill station boasting a beautifully landscaped 148 ft garden, electric gates and off street parking.

This charming house was once home to John Edward Illsley of Dire Straits, and if the walls could speak, they would recount the jam sessions that must have taken place there. The current owners have created a beautiful family home catering for modern life whilst retaining a whole host of Victorian features, including sash windows, fireplaces, cornicing, wood strip floors, and the original tiled hallway. The property is flooded with natural light, together with the high ceilings give this house a real sense of grandeur.

This classically elegant home further benefits from three bathrooms, a spectacular loft conversion, a 26’9 ft double reception, a garden home office/gym with air conditioning, and a large cellar. The internal area is over 3300 sq.ft. And houses of this size rarely come on the market.
