Set within a quiet residential street between Beckenham and Bromley, this 1930s family home gives little away from the front. It’s at the rear that the property truly sets itself apart: a just-over-quarter-acre plot with direct river frontage, open views across the local golf course and a level of character and privacy that is rare in Greater London.
The main house provides approximately 1,400 sq ft of living space, plus 720 sqft of outbuildings, extending how the property can be used. These include a large cabin used as an office / gym, a small summer house, a greenhouse-style garden room, and a rare original WW2 underground air raid shelter converted into a wine cellar. A large loft space is also used as an office / cinema room.
The secluded garden has been landscaped over several years and is a defining feature. Due to its size and aspect, it receives sun throughout the day. An extensive patio runs the full width of the house for outdoor dining, with a separate deck by the river providing a quiet hideaway. Mature trees and fruit planting include apple, pear and plum. Power, Wi-Fi and an irrigation system run throughout the garden and outbuildings.
Internally, the house has been fully redesigned to a contemporary style. Period hall tiling and a continuous oak flooring runs across the ground floor, linking the main living spaces. Solid wood French doors sit between the living room and kitchen/dining area, with an open fireplace in the lounge and a log burner in the kitchen/dining area.
The house is currently arranged as three bedrooms, two with built-in wardrobes, alongside a downstairs WC and a family bathroom upstairs. Approved planning for a full loft extension (Bromley Council, 2022) offers scope to add living or bedroom space.
Off-street parking for up to three cars is provided via a resin-bonded driveway installed in 2023. Well-regarded schools, parks, Bromley town centre and Shortlands station are all within walking distance
