A bright and beautifully presented Victorian house on this much sought-after residential street in the Diamond Conservation area.


This delightful five-bedroom semi-detached Victorian house is situated in the highly desirable Diamond Conservation area and close to the world-class Battersea Power Station development. In excellent condition, this spacious family home measures approximately 1,737 sq. ft. and retains a wealth of original period features.

As you enter, to your right is a very bright double reception room with high ceilings, immaculate period features and measures nearly 25ft in length. The pretty bay window overlooks the front of the property and boasts plantation shutters. This fantastic family space features two cast iron Victorian fireplaces, original cornicing and built-in cupboards and book shelving. The house then takes you through to a stunning and sizeable kitchen/breakfast room which is perfect for both family life and entertaining. This modern kitchen has an extensive range of Shaker-style fitted wall and base units, and multiple integrated appliances including fridge/freezer, dishwasher and a Stoves range cooker. Accessed through both the reception room and the kitchen, the west-facing garden benefits from artificial grass, natural wild bell flowers which bloom twice a year, and two established olive trees in planters. The current owners replaced the entire heating and hot-water system in 2017 as well as fitting all windows with new double glazing.

The generous principal bedroom to the front is bright and has good built-in wardrobes, an original fireplace and a bay window with plantation shutters. To the centre of the house you have another double bedroom currently used as a children’s bedroom and a good-sized family bathroom featuring a large bath and double sinks. To the rear on this floor, you find a further double bedroom which overlooks the garden, which is ideal for either a nursery or a home office.

On the top floor there is another large double bedroom with Velux skylights to the front and a sash window to the rear. Adjacent is a bright bathroom with decorated panelled walls and bath surround.

These upper floors provide access to a large amount of useful eaves storage totalling an additional 200 sq. ft. as well as further storage in the well-sized cellar.

The house is located on a pretty tree lined street in the highly sought-after Diamond Conservation Area with the shops, cafés and restaurants of Queenstown Road and Lavender Hill on your doorstep. The green open spaces of Clapham Common and Battersea Park are just a short walk away.
