Greenfield Avenue, Surbiton

3 2 1

A traditional three bedroom bay fronted semi-detached family home with excellent parking provision and complimented by an established approx.100ft private rear garden with versatile garden cabin / home office.

Our clients acquired the property in 2016 from prior owners who had resided for several generations.  Whilst a number of improvements have been made, the original layout is still intact which, in our view, commands a certain charm all of its own.  A number of period features of that era are on display; stripped wood floor boards, panelled doors, picture rails and good room proportions.  It also means that an opportunity to extend / enlarge the accommodation still exists – by way of rear kitchen/dining/family room extension and / or loft conversion to create a fourth bedroom and second bathroom. Naturally, such work would require the usual local authority permissions.  However, given the vast number of similar extensions within in the area, consent is practically a forgone conclusion. 

The ground floor accommodation comprises a good size entrance hall with under-stair storage, there are two independent reception rooms; an elegant front sitting room with its ornamental cast iron fireplace catches the eye, and the rear dining room also provides further sitting space with views over the garden and access to the Indian sandstone patio area.  A modern fitted kitchen with door to garden completes this floor. 

Upstairs, the landing has the original timber staircase and side window.  There are three bedrooms (two doubles and a good single) all supported by the family bathroom and separate W.C. 

Outside, there is a shared driveway and garage (storage), whilst the front garden is hard landscaped to provide off-street-parking.  The rear garden is generous in size extending to just under 100ft, with lawn opening up behind the garage where a strategically placed seating area is found – a nice private and secluded spot.  The garden office with power and light is tucked away at the end of the garden.                 

Location: Greenfield Avenue is a lovely tree-lined road in a popular residential neighbourhood.  It is a vibrant and community focused area, about 0.75 of a mile from Berrylands train station with the A3 nearby giving swift access to the city centre by car.  It is also a stone's throw from Hogsmill public open space and Berrylands Park & Nature Reserve, local shops and outstanding schools. Surbiton has a cosmopolitan vibe, offering a mix of suburban tranquility and urban conveniences. The town centre (1.5m) offers superb shopping facilities and amenities and its mainline station with its fast-trains service gets you into London Waterloo in abt. 15-20 minutes.
