The kitchen ./ diner is a great space and ideal for entertaining and big enough of a large dining room table and chairs.
It well equipped, with an extensive range of white units, tiled floor, laminate worktop, two windows and some nice open shelves.
The lounge is a great size and a great room, including a gorgeous wood floor, patio doors which open into the huge private garden.
There are two bedrooms - both with enviable outlooks and lots of light - plus a well appointed and neat bathroom. The GARDEN is amazing.
A combination of lawn, trees and different spaces to sit and relax. There is sun & shade, with plants and shrubs aplenty. Its an oasis and very special. The garden is large enough for a studio.
EPC Our Vendor Loves.. "I fell in love with the garden immediately and feel very lucky to have lived here for many years right beside mature trees, nature and wildlife, whilst living in London.
Morning coffee, the feeling of space, the many birds, friendly foxes, yoga, playdates, picnics, the changing seasons and much besides has been enjoyed here.
Border Road itself is quite a special place to live.
It has a really peaceful vibe, a neighbourly WhatsApp group as well as being minutes walk to the wonderful Crystal Palace park, the local shops and transport to town. We’ve loved living here.
I know I’ll miss it dearly but the countryside is calling!"
