Recently refurbished to an impeccable standard, this Grade II listed 1860s home seamlessly blends classical heritage with modern features, creating a grand yet supremely comfortable residence.

A Grand Welcome: First Impressions That Last

Step inside a world where no expense has been spared. Exquisite new oak herringbone flooring flows throughout the ground floor, with discreet underfloor heating in the kitchen/diner. State-of-the-art alarm and CCTV systems offer mobile control for peace of mind. The newly fitted downstairs shower room features sumptuous Mandarin Stone tiles and elegant Lusso fittings, creating a spa-like experience. Brass light switches, sockets, and chic black industrial-style radiators contribute to the exceptional finish. This comprehensively redecorated home is a turn-key solution, ready for you to move straight in.

The Heart of the Home: A Culinary Masterpiece for Entertaining

The show-stopping kitchen/dining space is the social hub, stretching across the entire rear of the property. This modern living area is designed for both everyday enjoyment and grand entertaining. Boasting a brand-new bespoke kitchen and utility area by 'Collins Bespoke' of Bethersden, it features stunning quartz work surfaces, innovative boiling water taps, and a newly fitted 'Ilve' Italian-style range cooker. This outstanding environment is purpose-built for unforgettable gatherings. The adjoining garage offers exciting potential for future conversion (subject to consents).

Landscaped Perfection and Prime Location: The Best of Both Worlds

Beyond the stunning interior, the flawlessly landscaped gardens, front and back, offer a serene escape. Established and newly planted trees, hedges, and vibrant flowers create a picturesque setting. Discover quiet moments by the tranquil small pond or explore the charming wild garden area.

Nestled in Lower Vicarage Road, a premier residential street in leafy Kennington, you'll find an idyllic blend of village charm and urban convenience.

Surface Water Flood Risk
Unlike flooding from rivers, surface water flooding can happen many miles from a river, often in places that people wouldn’t expect because it’s a long way from a river or stream – it happens simply because there is nowhere else for the rainwater to go. Risk ratings are measured as:
High Risk - an area which has a chance of flooding of greater than 1 in 30 (3.3%) in any one year.
Medium Risk - an area which has a chance of flooding of greater than 1 in 100 (1.0%) in any one year.
Low Risk - an area which has a chance of flooding of greater than 1 in 1000 (0.1%) in any one year.
Very Low Risk - an area in which the risk is below 1 in 1000 (0.1%) in any one year.

Council Tax pays for multiple services in the property's local authority with only part of it going to the council itself. Residences within a Parish or Town Council area have an additional charge to fund the body. Each parish/town council has a different budget and imposes different fees. Not all councils have parishes/town councils and this varies across the country.

In instances where parish/town councils do affect the council tax value and we do not have the exact figure, we present council tax data with the below highlights. Take care to confirm which is being presented by the dashboard as this will need to be made clear to your clients:

avg - When we indicate the Council Tax price is 'avg', it means we have not been able to obtain an exact figure, so this number represents the mean value of Council Tax across the council for that property band. The exact figure will be slightly higher or lower because each parish/town council is priced differently.

min - When we indicate the Council Tax is a 'min', it represents the known amount that the council sets for itself, but excludes the parish/town council cost which we have not been able to obtain. The additional cost will need to be considered as it will be greater than the indicated price.
