1 bed bungalow for sale

Ferry Road, Barnes SW13

Marsh & Parsons are excited to bring to the market this unique detached contemporary single-storey home.

Set back from the road behind a gated courtyard, this freehold home offers an exceptional sense of privacy and tranquillity, creating a peaceful oasis in the heart of the neighbourhood. Originally designed as a music studio for a professional pianist, the property was thoughtfully created with no adjoining neighbours, resulting in a wonderfully quiet and detached home with a distinctive architectural character.

The accommodation is beautifully balanced, opening into a striking open-plan reception room with generous space for both relaxing and entertaining. Bathed in natural light throughout the day and wonderfully atmospheric in the evening, the living space is complemented by attractive wood flooring, contemporary cabinetry and a sleek well-appointed kitchen benefitting from a contemporary worktop, an excellent range of fitted units and fully integrated appliances, the kitchen combines style with practicality.

The spacious double bedroom features bespoke fitted wardrobes, while the modern bathroom is conveniently accessed from both the bedroom and the reception room, creating an easy and functional layout.

The current owner has sympathetically enhanced the property, including replacing the roof (with the benefit of a 10-year guarantee), installing new windows and a new front door, refinishing the wooden floors and redecorating throughout. Modern comforts include air conditioning for the warmer months, underfloor heating and an air-source heat pump, ensuring year-round comfort and energy efficiency.

Outside, the gated courtyard has been attractively landscaped with planting to create a welcoming outdoor space, while also providing the flexibility of off-street parking via a dropped kerb. A separate external store offers useful additional storage and houses the boiler.

Offering a rare combination of privacy, character and contemporary living, this distinctive home is perfectly suited to buyers seeking something truly different.

Ferry Road is in the heart of Barnes Village which offers an eclectic mix of independent retailers, pubs and highly regarded restaurants, and the Olympic Cinema. Barnes Pond and the surrounding green adjoining Barnes Common is close by, along with The Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust's 100 acre Wetlands Centre.
