Contemporary Catchment

This, contemporary, Edwardian family house, with superb 36’ southwest facing garden has been beautifully renovated and provides smart-open-plan living, four bedrooms and two stylish bathrooms. Situated in the ever-popular Furzedown area, just south of Tooting Bec Common’s green spaces and directly in the catchment area for excellent schools, including Penwortham, Furzedown (Primary) and Graveney (Secondary). Tooting/Streatham Common train stations are approx. half a mile away.

This turn-key family property has been extensively renovated inside and out by the present owners and is offered in excellent condition throughout, blending attractive period features with sleek contemporary fittings and finishes. The double reception room has been cleverly widened by removal of both the rear hall and the dividing wall to create one extra-large open-plan entertaining space. It has lovely high ceilings, large windows front and back and a pair of beautiful matching cast-iron fireplaces. To the rear it opens directly into a beautifully stylish and very well fitted kitchen with a good range of high-quality handle-less units and integrated Siemens appliances to include two ovens, large hob, extractor, dishwasher and washer/dryer.

The garden is magnificent with a good-size deck and a large lawn surrounded by a variety of mature architectural plants. It has the very best of aspects (southwest) and receives day-long sunshine. It also has a very private feel at the back being higher than the houses behind.

Upstairs, a superb fully tiled modern family bathroom has been created from one of the bigger rooms and is fitted with large walk-in “wet-room” shower cubicle, and separate bath. There are four bedrooms in all, including three good doubles and a single. The large top double bedroom, converted from the loft space, has a further en suite bathroom as well, also fitted in contemporary style. Additionally, there is an extra WC on the first landing and good storage under the stairs. There is high quality Lutron Rania lighting system, Nest Thermostat (main central heating), Nest smoke alarms, and underfloor heating in the kitchen and bathrooms.

Greyswood Street is a quiet residential street which runs from Mitcham Lane to Ribblesdale Road meaning less through traffic. Tooting and Streatham Common mainline stations are about half a mile away and provide trains to the City and West End as do Tooting Bec and Tooting Broadway tubes stations which are within a mile. Numerous bus routes serve the area. There is an attractive parade of convenient shops and cafes on nearby Moyser Road around which the lovely Furzedown community is centred. Tooting Bec Common is a short walk away, as are the recreational facilities of Furzedown Recreation Ground which include tennis courts, cricket nets, football and basketball pitches and a popular children’s playground.
