Southside Charm, By Veeve

London

Located in the vibrant Balham area of South London, this exquisite redbrick Victorian home is a perfect retreat for sunseekers and families alike. With a capacity to accommodate six guests across three beautifully appointed bedrooms, the property is set amidst the picturesque High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The home boasts a stunning terrace and meticulously manicured gardens that reflect the tranquil charm of its pastoral surroundings, while the interior harmoniously blends traditional elegance with contemporary flair, creating a welcoming atmosphere for all who enter.

As you step inside, the sweeping entrance hall immediately hints at the property’s impressive period heritage. The living room captivates with its elegant bay window, corniced ceilings, and chandelier lighting, which enhance the refined ambiance. For book lovers, the generous home library offers a cozy escape, illuminated by ambient lighting. The kitchen and dining area exemplify grace with a sleek marble island and a stylish dining table, complemented by a specialist wine fridge for connoisseurs, making it an ideal space for entertaining or enjoying family meals.

The principal bedroom is a sanctuary of relaxation, featuring a super king-sized bed, a comfortable seating area, and French doors that open onto the terrace. Its contemporary en-suite bathroom, complete with a walk-in shower, adds a touch of luxury. The second bedroom also boasts direct garden access and includes a king-sized bed and a reading nook, while the third bedroom, bathed in soft light from a large bay window, exudes a mellow atmosphere with its warm hues and well-stocked bookshelf. The two additional bathrooms are tastefully designed, with one offering a shower and the other a bath, both featuring elegant mocha and charcoal grey tones.

The enchanting garden and terrace are standout features of this home, providing three distinct al fresco seating areas perfect for soaking up the sun throughout the day. The property is designed for a peaceful and refined living experience, with a strict no smoking, pets, or parties policy in place. While the wood burner in the living room is purely decorative, practical amenities such as a washing machine, dryer, and parking (available with advance notice for an extra cost) enhance convenience. Notably, this home is not suitable for children under 12 years, ensuring a serene environment for adults. With its advantageous connections to Clapham Junction and central London, this design-led residence beautifully marries countrified charm with urban accessibility.
