About this home
Positioned discreetly at the end of the highly sought-after Kings Orchard Estate, this impressive, detached home represents one of the largest properties within the development. Occupying a generous private plot of approximately 0.5 acres, the house offers over 2,070 sq ft of versatile accommodation, complemented by a roof terrace, garage and a range of useful outbuildings.
A quiet residential neighborhood popular with families with a vibrant high street—featuring a cinema, shopping, and restaurants—just a 2-minute walk away.
Set well back from the road, the property is approached through a striking columned entrance leading onto a wide brick herringbone driveway, providing extensive off-street parking for many vehicles. The house sits centrally within its grounds, surrounded by mature hedging and established planting, ensuring a high degree of privacy. The south-west facing rear garden is predominantly laid to level lawn and features mature trees, including fruit and specimen varieties, with a peaceful wooded backdrop.
The property has been extended and improved in recent years, most notably with a contemporary kitchen and wraparound extension completed in 2015, along with a later porch addition. Planning approvals and building control consents previously granted also present further opportunities for significant enlargement, offering scope to substantially increase both footprint and accommodation, subject to the necessary consents.
Internally, a welcoming entrance hall leads to a spacious sitting room with feature fireplace plus enjoying pleasant views across the rear garden. This connects seamlessly to a bright open-plan kitchen and breakfast room fitted with modern cabinetry, marble work surfaces, integrated appliances and a central island, creating an ideal space for family living and entertaining.
The ground floor further comprises a dining room, conservatory, utility room, additional bedroom/reception room and two shower rooms, offering flexibility for modern family needs.
To the first floor are four well-proportioned double bedrooms, a family bathroom and separate WC. The principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower room and direct access to a private balcony overlooking the garden.
Externally, the property is further enhanced by a single garage and several storage sheds, adding character and practical utility.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial family home in a prestigious residential setting, offering privacy, space and exceptional long-term potential, within easy reach of Eltham High Street and local amenities.
Only 0.5 miles to Eltham & 0.9 to Mottingham train stations providing direct access to London Bridge, Waterloo East, Charing Cross, Cannon Street, Nunhead*, Peckham Rye*, Denmark Hill* & London Victoria* (*from Eltham).
