About this property

This circa 6000sqft detached villa occupied a substantial west facing plot on a desirable road in Eltham. This wonderful home is surrounded by timeless British heritage. Your prestigious neighbours include England's oldest golf club, The Royal Blackheath which is directly across the road, and the enchanting moated Eltham Palace, once the childhood abode of Henry the VIII located immediately behind The Beeches. Immerse yourself in the feeling of a country home in London.

The churchlike front door leads you into a welcoming entrance with beautiful tiled floor then into a wide central hall. Attractive wooden flooring flows through to the two main reception rooms that are either side of the hall. To the right is the formal dining room with a feature fireplace and a large bay window. Across the hall is the palatial double reception room which spans over 30ft with a large bay window to the front and two sets of French doors to the rear garden. Both rooms have impressive 4.5m high ceilings with ornate cornicing. A door from the living room takes you through to the incredible snooker rooms with superb vaulted ceiling and doors out to the patio. There are stairs up to a fantastic snug/TV room with wooden panelled walls, creating a fantastic entertaining space away from the main house. The traditional style Mark Wilkinson kitchen boasts bespoke handmade solid wood units, a granite work surface and integrated appliances. There is a lovely breakfast area to the rear overlooking the garden. There is also a WC and a utility room. The lower ground has been kitted out as a gym with mirrored walls and a separate sauna, shower room, wine cellar and a number of storage rooms. The principal suite is on the first floor, which includes a spacious bedroom with two Juliet balconies, a fully fitted dressing room and a stylish en-suite.
