Minard Road, Catford

Architecturally-treated and renovated four double bedroom Corbett Estate semi-detached house arranged over three floors and 1524 square feet. A smart front drive and a generous west-facing rear garden (with side access) of circa 50 feet complete this positively delightful offering. Find your new home winning-at-life close to Sandhurst Primary School, and just a 12 minute walk from Hither Green Station (which has been recently improved to provide step-free access). Corbett Community Library is also a short walk. Set your wheels on your own front drive. There is also unrestricted on-street parking. You open into an impressive high-ceilinged hall – eyes drawn to the awesome main room ahead.
But before we get to all that, to your right is a traditional front room of over 15 feet by over 14 feet, with a central wood-burner, picture rail, coving and ceiling rose detailing, flooded with light from the large bay window. Alcove shelving further features. Next along the hall is a neat/downstairs w.c. Then you have an under-stairs cupboard opposite (fab for coats and the vacuum etc.). A cool pocket door reveals the main event: a beautiful rear extended room which incorporates kitchen, dining and seating areas, with garden views (and access to it). We love the exposed brickwork and timber beams to the ceiling. And do note the thoughtful attention that has been paid to storage, plus plentiful kitchen units and a central island with bar/breakfast bar functionality. The utility room, next to the side entry, is perfect for prams or muddy boots. Up to the first floor and you have the property’s bathroom set to the back of the house. This has sleek contemporary sanitary ware and fittings, and an independent walk-in shower as well as a bath (with spray attachment). Next door is your first double bedroom, of over 11 feet by 12 feet. To the front of the house you have a smaller double (of over 9 feet by over 8 feet) and the principal bay-windowed bedroom, of 16 feet by 11 feet. All three bedrooms have engineered wooden floors and slimline column radiators.
Your second floor hosts the fourth and final (carpeted) bedroom. This has vistas over garden and loads of accessible eaves storage. Commuting connections are notably strong, with Hither Green Station your most local (Catford’s two stations are also close), with a 10 minute journey time to London Bridge, or 20 to Charing Cross/Canon St. You have got good bus routes as well. The Station Hotel is a popular local pub just by it, and you’ll note cute clusters of cafes and boutique shops around both of the station’s exit/entry points. Hither Green is considered a ’London Village’ and is growing fast in popularity with families and young professionals alike. Catford and Lewisham town centres offer shopping opportunities, and both have regeneration plans in play. Catford Broadway is your local theatre (don’t miss the annual panto here!). Kids or on the horizon? Sandhurst Primary, Torridon and Holy Cross are your closest. Independent schools local to you include St. Dunstan’s College and Colfe’s.
Local parks include Mountsfield Park and Forster Memorial Park. For larger public open spaces, Greenwich and Blackheath are but a short drive or bus ride. Tenure: Freehold
