Sat proudly on Benson Road, which is one of Forest Hill’s most prestigious streets, occupying the whole ground floor of this stunning double fronted detached house, is this simply stunning two double bedroom garden maisonette. Offered to the market chain free!
The flat benefits from direct access to a massive private rear garden 67ft (20m) Long and 28ft (8.53m) wide! The flat is sold with a long lease, has been tastefully decorated to a modern style and has the main door of the building as the entrance to the flat.
Upon approach the property you can’t help to be immediately impressed by the striking Victorian façade of red stock brick, period detailing and large sash windows. The house is set back from the road with a front garden protected by a large hedge offering privacy from the street. Beneath a beautifully detailed arched porch is a large original front door with stained glass windows offering direct access into the entrance hall of the flat!
To the right is the main reception room where there is an immediate feeling of space from the high ceiling and natural light drawn in by the square bay sash windows at the front of the house overlooking the front garden. This room has been nicely decorated with dark stained engineered wood flooring. There is plenty of space for a dining table and chairs, and a sofas.
The second bedroom is located on the opposite side of the hallway, also at the front of the house. It has carpeted flooring and a large sash window looking out over the front garden towards the street. Thanks to the house being set uphill and raised from the ground, there is plenty of privacy and light in both these front rooms.
The main bedroom is at the back of the flat and is double aspect with one window at the far end of the room looking out to the rear garden and the other window to the side return.
The bathroom is conveniently located at the rear of the property in the middle of the flat. Neatly decorated with black tiled floors and white metro tiled walls around the bathtub and the sink. There is a shower attachment above the bath and is accompanied by a contemporary toilet and wash hand basin with a vanity unit beneath. A frosted window offers natural light and ventilation.
The kitchen is also located at the rear of the flat and has direct access to the garden. It has been stylishly fitted with grey wood effect flooring, fashionable matte black cupboard units providing plenty of storage on both sides of the room. There are integrated appliances with a grey worktop housing the sink on one side of the room and the hob on the other. More metro tiles are sued as the splashback to mirror the adjacent bathroom. There is plenty of space for a dining table and chairs just beneath the window overlooking the garden. There is also a patio door that offers direct access to the garden.
The garden is the star of the show as it’s the whole width of the house 28ft (8.53m) and is 67ft long, with side return access from the front. There is a patio area closest to the house, perfect for alfresco dining in those warm summer evenings. Beyond this is a large lawn surrounded by mature plants and trees.
Benson Road is a much-loved, quiet residential street with a lovely community of residents. The property is in the Forest Hill conservation area and one of the few flats on the street, as the majority of the houses are family homes.

Forest Hill station, just 0.35 of a mile away, has services to London Bridge, Victoria and London Overground links to Canada Water, Shoreditch, Hoxton, Dalston Junction and Highbury & Islington.
