Bask in open-plan California vibes with this huge 1970’s semi-detached house of 1871 square feet, inclusive of an integral garage (we know - tough to find!).

The dreamy home has both bath and shower rooms plus an additional w.c. You also have plentiful storage, a front drive to park your wheels upon, and an enormous rear garden - which is laid to lawn and framed by mature trees.

Your new large and light house is pleasingly close to Mountsfield Park (with community garden and cafe - walk one minute!).

And for rail travel, walk just 12 minutes to Hither Green Station (or grab a bus down the road). Further, there are good local schools within easy walking distance.

The order of the day is lovely lateral living, and we are rather smitten! There’s more than a bit of ‘film set’ about the place. Open into a windowed lobby. On through a timber-framed glazed door and first on your right is the internal door to the garage (so you can access it from inside and outside of the house). It is a generous one at over 19 feet by 10 feet.

To your left is a hefty central hall space. Off this, to the front of the house, you have a main bathroom (smart white square tiles and a modern white suite featuring here) and a roomy study of over 12 feet by over 12 feet. It will work equally well as a fourth bedroom or additional reception/snug, or a dedicated playroom for some lucky kids! You choose.

A large under-stairs cupboard is fab for coats, the vacuum cleaner and such. Up a few steps and you have a windowed guest loo. Perfect for the parties you must host!

Block parquet flooring flows through to the main event: at the back of the house, you will find big kitchen, dining and reception areas - the entire space spanning over 36 feet by nearly 18 feet. Supersized furniture is necessary, and definitely lots of visitors. Get out to the garden via timber-framed glazed doors.

The fitted kitchen is a sensitively-chosen simple and modern one, with a breakfast bar. Open shelves can hold your best pots/bits. A traditional back door gets you out to the side of the house.

Head upstairs for the bedroom department. Two bedrooms rest to the front of the house. The largest principal bedroom has an en suite shower room plus accessible storage.

Next door is another double - of over 14 feet by 10 feet. A third double looks onto the garden. This one is over 8 feet by nearly 10 feet. More storage is easily-accessed (via doors) from this bedroom.

Hither Green Station is Fare Zone 3, with frequent London Bridge and Charing Cross services. Permit-parking is available on the street for residents.

Green spaces are pleasingly-plentiful round this way: Mountsfield and Lewisham Parks being your closest, then you’ve got delightful Ladywell Fields and beyond that - Hilly Fields, toward Brockley.

There is a Tesco Metro really close by. In the centre of Hither Green, you have a handy Co-Op, and Good Hope (deli) plus La Delice (cafe), also Mission Green Organic Food shop, and Monsoon Curry House, China Express and Saka Maka (are all local top restaurants/takeaways).

Cafe Green (on Ennersdale Road) for authentic Vietnamese food is also popular. The Station Hotel is a strong local public house (you can guess where to find it!).

Hither Green has a great sense of community with an annual festival at the clocktower - comprising market stalls, street food, live music and lots more! In addition to the wonderful Manor House Gardens festival (also annual).

Nearby In Ladywell we like The Larder deli, Mamma Dough for pizza, and Meat Jon (a great butcher shop). Wilson’s is a new small plates and wine place.

For high street shopping and markets, Lewisham and Catford are close. You can also pick up DLR trains at Lewisham Station for Canary Wharf and Bank.

Green spaces are pleasingly-plentiful round this way: beyond Mountsfield you have Lewisham Park. Then you land upon delightful Ladywell Fields, and beyond that - Hilly Fields. Greenwich Park (and UNESCO World Heritage Site) and Blackheath Common are also close for more options.
