Terraced house for sale in Alderney Street, London SW1V

A superb opportunity to purchase a substantial period six bedroom freehold family home c. 3053sqft in Pimlico SW1.

On the market for the first time in nearly 35 years this property has an excellent footplate but could benefit from either modernisation or reconfiguring. The main body of the home is both well-proportioned and well balanced with four bedrooms, two bathrooms and a guest loo. The home's principal entertaining spaces (kitchen, dining and drawing rooms) are located on the favoured ground and first floors. The drawing room and library, with a ceiling height of ca. 3.1m, has the traditional L shape and benefits from floor to ceiling windows leading out to the portico balcony at the front. There is also a rear terrace with views towards Battersea Power Station leading off the principal bedroom suite on the top floor.

The lower ground floor offers the option of a self-contained one-bedroom apartment but can also be accessed from within the main home. Subject to all the necessary consents there is potential to reconfigure the property as well as increase the footplate via a side return extension to the rear, at both ground and basement levels and possibly a roof garden on the mansard extension.

This house affords excellent value for money compared with Pimlico's near neighbours and would be ideal for those looking for a well proportioned and versatile central London family home that will stand the test of time.
