Lebanon, Lebanon Gardens, London, SW18 1RQ

Description Behind its handsome Victorian façade, this five-bedroom Wandsworth house has been transformed into an exceptionally luxurious home, with close to 4,000 sq ft of interior space, advanced technology, two cinema screens, a wine cellar, and a separate coach house at the end of a walled garden.

The double reception room spans much of the ground floor and retains deep cornicing, bay windows, chevron wood floors, and a carved marble fireplace.

A drop-down cinema screen and concealed speakers provide discreet contemporary technology. The kitchen and dining room is a contrast in the best sense.

At its centre is an Arabescato marble island, a solid block that is as much sculpture as worktop. The joinery is handleless, and the Miele and De Dietrich appliances are fully integrated.

A 24-carat gold Bisazza mosaic wall adds warmth, and a walk-in pantry keeps the working clutter out of sight. Behind the sink, the splashback is a sheet of glass looking straight into the garden.

A sliding glass wall, full height and width, opens the dining table onto the terrace, so in summer the two become one space. The lower-ground floor is devoted to entertaining.

The cinema has a 14 ft ceiling, a Sony 4K projector and a motorised screen. Crestron handles the lighting and sound, so the room goes from bright or party mode to screening with one touch.

Beyond it is the family room. A CoeLux system lights it, one of the very few installed in private houses in London.

CoeLux reproduces the colour and depth of real sky: Sunlight through the day, and a soft moonlit glow in the evening. The walls are hung with hand-painted de Gournay silk.

A kitchenette lets the room host a long lunch or a late party without anyone having to go upstairs.

From here, a glass-covered spiral staircase leads down into a circular wine cellar with space for about 1,000 bottles. A large laundry and utility room gives the storage a house of this size needs.

A second staircase leads up to the coach house at the end of the garden.

The principal suite occupies two former bedrooms, creating a generous private retreat with a dressing room and concealed ensuite bathroom.

Two further bedrooms each have fitted storage and their own marble bathroom.

Above them, a large loft offers storage and the potential to convert into a sixth bedroom, subject to the necessary permissions.

Landscaped for privacy and security, the garden has paved terraces, established planting, a water feature, automatic irrigation, and evening lighting.

At its far end, a self-contained coach house provides further flexible accommodation, with a shower room and an upper level. It could serve as a fifth bedroom suite, guest annex, gym, or home office.

Underfloor heating and air conditioning run throughout the house, alongside Crestron audiovisual controls, Lutron lighting, remotely accessible CCTV, battery-backed uninterruptible power supply, and solar panels.

Lebanon Gardens is a residential street close to the independent shops, cafés, and restaurants of Old York Road.

Wandsworth Town station is within easy reach, providing direct connections to Clapham Junction and London Waterloo, while the open spaces beside the Thames and Wandsworth Common are also nearby.
