About
Guide price £825,000 - £850,000 Propertyworld is delighted to present this substantial five-bedroom mid-terrace townhouse, arranged over four floors and set on the prestigious Hall Drive, a private road tucked away in the very heart of Sydenham.
Quietly positioned with a secluded feel and a pleasant outlook, this impressive family home offers over 1,750 sq ft of flexible living space and represents a superb opportunity to add your own personal stamp.
The ground floor accommodation comprises an integrated garage currently used as a utility room and storage area, a separate WC and a versatile room ideal as a home office, study or fifth bedroom.
This level opens directly onto a beautifully landscaped west-facing rear garden, designed to be low maintenance and featuring mature shrubs, established planting and a patio area perfect for outdoor entertaining.
The first floor offers a generous reception room measuring almost 16ft x 15ft, flooded with natural light from large double-glazed windows.
To the rear sits a well-proportioned kitchen diner, ideal for family life and entertaining.
The second floor provides an impressive principal bedroom, comparable in size to the reception room, alongside a further double bedroom and a family bathroom.
The top floor completes the accommodation with two additional bedrooms, one currently used as an artist’s studio or study, plus an en-suite bathroom.
The property would benefit from some updating in parts, offering an exciting opportunity to create a bespoke family home. Further benefits include off-street parking for two cars to the front.
Hall Drive is a sought-after address, in the heart of Sydenham, with Sydenham station and the High Street a short stroll away which offers a vibrant range of independent coffee shops, gastropubs and community restaurants, contributing to the area’s strong and welcoming community feel.
A variety of green spaces are nearby too, including the award-winning Crystal Palace Park.
"Over twenty years of contentment living here what stands out is the flexibility and ease of living this house provides - the huge picture windows ensure all the rooms are flooded with light even on short winter days; it is a snug and private retreat after a long day's work, and yet a supple party space too, with the garden as an extra room in which to enjoy a dinner at sunset, and plenty of bedrooms for guests, or a growing family.
I have found it an easy commute with options into the West End or the City; and there is a warm and genuine sense of community within the road itself. Neighbours are there for you, but not intrusive.
When you turn off the main road there is a real sense of coming home that allows you to shake off the cares of the day and embrace a fresh identity.
When I moved in I was told Hall Drive offered a 'Dulwich vibe, but not Dulwich prices', and that turned out to be true, except that in the interim Sydenham has developed its own unique area vibe."
