Join The Fun & Friendly Close Knit Community On Murillo Road With This Immaculate, Tastefully Updated Edwardian Terrace. When you move into this fabulous four bedroom family home you’ll be welcomed into this sought after street’s active and sociable community.

Are you looking to put down roots in a welcoming neighbourhood where you’ll quickly get to know your neighbours names? If so, this quiet terraced street could be perfect, where it’s not only the period properties that will make you think of simpler past times.

There’s a real feeling of community on Murillo Road - with annual street parties and Christmas window displays all part of the fun. There’s also an active social community both IRL and online. The “Come Hither To Hither Green” Facebook group and “The Murillo Gang” neighbourhood WhatsApp group are used to coordinate community events and let everyone get to know each other.

Thankfully, with so much socialising to be done, this substantial Edwardian terrace has been tastefully updated to create a thoroughly sociable 21st century home.

The traditional two reception room layout has been opened up to create one seamless space, where no one needs to feel left out of the conversation.

The kitchen is stylish and modern with top quality integrated appliances - including a hide-and-slide oven just like on the Bake Off! The stylish fitted units are topped with quartz worktops and carrara marble splashback tiles.

If the kitchen is a great example of high end modern design then the lounge and dining room certainly tick all the period charm boxes. They have the high ceilings and original period features that you’d expect to find, along with recently restained original floorboards.

Tasteful modern touches have been added where they can add to the ambience, such as the custom plantation shutters in the front bay window and the Farrow & Ball decoration.

You can access the west facing back garden from both the dining room and kitchen.

It’s a lovely sun-trap spot that’s been landscaped to make the most of the secluded and private location, backed with mature fruit trees.

It’s a quiet and serene garden that’s designed for maximum enjoyment rather than constant upkeep, with low maintenance decking, artificial grass and sleeper beds with a selection of plants and trees.

The first floor has two double bedrooms, a single bedroom that would be perfect as a nursery or home office and the fresh and modern family bathroom.

But the top floor really is something special. The whole of the second floor forms a luxurious main bedroom suite with its own private shower room and space in the main bedroom for both a super king size bed and plenty of bespoke built-in storage.

The property is practical too, with a handy cellar that’s great for further storage (currently a handy pantry) and also home to the less exciting but ever important electric meters and RCD.

You’re not just spoilt with a wonderful home to enjoy living and socialising in - there’s also so much more to enjoy without heading far from this spacious turnkey property.

If you have a car there’s plenty of on-street parking. There’s an EV charging point further up Murillo Road along with a bikehangar (you'll need to apply to the council for a space but it’s only £5 per month).

Murillo Road is really handy if you need to get into central London for work or pleasure by public transport.

You can walk to Hither Green station in less than 10 minutes and if you time it right you can be on the platform at Charing Cross in around half an hour or London Bridge in just over 20 minutes.

If you’re heading home from the station you can pick up something for dinner from Sainsburys or one of the independent shops on Staplehurst Road. Or you can just stop off at one of the pubs or restaurants for a bite to eat en-route.

Foodies will love heading up to Blackheath Farmers Market on a Sunday. It’s a pleasant 20 minute stroll where you can work up a healthy appetite on the way.

But you don’t have to limit your Blackheath visits to a Sunday, there’s plenty of independent shops, cafés and restaurants to attract you seven days a week.

If you’ve got children they’ll love making new friends with the other ‘Murillo Gang’ kids.

Youngsters will love burning off some energy in the nearby Manor House Gardens playground or losing themselves in a book in the library. Grown ups may be more attracted to a social game of tennis or a tranquil stroll around the Manor Park lake. The park and gardens really do have something for all ages.

The area also has a great selection of primary and secondary schools (rated “Outstanding” and “Good” by Ofsted). There's also a choice of prestigious independent schools such as Colfes, Pointers and Heath House.

Murillo Road isn’t unusual in being such a close knit and friendly street. Hither Green in general has a wonderful community spirit with plenty of events to bring everyone together. For example there's the Manor House Gardens Festival, the Hither Green Festival and outdoor cinema nights in Manor House Gardens over the summer.

This superb three storey, four bedroom terrace is a lovely home for you and your family, in a wonderfully friendly Hither Green location.

It has the generously sized rooms and all the charming features you’d expect from a substantial period property combined with the very best of tastefully stylish and modern design.

We’re expecting plenty of interest in this fabulous family home - make sure you don’t miss out by calling Tanya Baker to book a viewing.
