Pickets Street, Balham

A stunning four bedroom Victorian family house with a 43 ft south-west facing garden on this popular residential street in the heart of the Nightingale Triangle.

With accommodation arranged over three floors, on the ground floor there is a wonderful double reception room boasting a large bay window (with window seat), two ornate fireplaces with cast iron inserts and granite hearths. Bespoke built-in cabinetry flanks the chimney breast in the room to the front of the house whilst a Crittal style window floods the second room (currently used as a dining room) with natural light.
To the rear of the ground floor is a light-filled kitchen, dining and family room. The sleek, contemporary kitchen benefits from plenty of wall and base units, integrated appliances and marble effect composite stone work surfaces. Large roof lights, polished concrete flooring with underfloor heating are also additional features of the kitchen. The kitchen is arranged into three zones: a dining area, an informal sitting area and the kitchen itself. Bi-folding doors open to the garden. A downstairs cloakroom can also be found on the ground floor along with a utility cupboard.
Three double bedrooms and a contemporary family bathroom can be found on the first floor with the principal suite at the top of the house. The principal bedroom boasts a thoughtfully designed integrated bed plinth surrounded by fitted storage. Steps lead down to a dressing area and smart en-suite bathroom with an oversized walk-in shower.
The kitchen opens on to a large patio area, ideal for al-fresco entertaining and on to an Easigrass lawned area surrounded by borders filled with mature plans, shrubs and flowers. A fully insulated garden studio sits against the rear wall, ideal for use as a home office or gym.
The property is ideally located in the heart of the Nightingale Triangle and within easy reach of all the amenities of central Balham which offers a variety of shops, bars, restaurants and cafes. Balham station is a short distance away and provides quick and convenient access to central London via Victoria and to the City via Bank on the Northern Line.
