Ramsden Road, Balham

A well-presented four storey Victorian family home on this highly desirable road in the heart of the Nightingale Triangle.

This handsome and imposing house has grand proportions and offers over 2,400 sq ft of accommodation and retains a wealth of period features whilst striking a balance with more contemporary touches.
Unusually for a property of this type, there are two full floors of reception and entertaining space including a grand, formal reception room on the raised ground floor, with tall ceilings, cornicing, built-in floor-to-ceiling shelving, an attractive stone fireplace and a deep bay window flooding the room with natural light. French doors lead to a large, decked roof terrace.
An open tread staircase leads down to a spacious light-filled kitchen, dining and family room on the lower ground floor. Lit from above by a large lantern roof light, there is a contemporary style kitchen with plenty of fitted storage, stone composite work surfaces and ample room to sit, dine and entertain. Bi-folding doors open on to a sunken patio with steps up to the garden. Adjacent to the kitchen is a cosy, less formal family room together with a bright, airy guest bedroom at the front of the house with an adjacent shower room with an oversized shower with full height glass screen. There is also a useful utility area.
Four generous double bedrooms are arranged over the upper two floors including a wonderful principal suite on the first floor with a wall of built-in wardrobes and a smart, contemporary en-suite bathroom with a free standing bath and large walk-in shower. There is a further double bedroom on this floor served by a shower room on the half landing between the first and second floor. Two further bedrooms and a family bathroom can be found on the top floor together with a smaller fifth bedroom, ideal for use as a study or nursery.
The property benefits from a generous amount of outside space including a decked terrace accessed from the reception room on the ground floor, a sunken patio on the lower ground floor and a 48 ft split level garden surrounded by mature borders, ideal for entertaining in the warmer summer months.
