This cleanly presented three bedroom family home, which is being sold chain free, is to be found towards the southern end of Landells Road. Landells Road runs parallel with, and in between, Lordship Lane and Barry Road. The property, which is in excellent condition throughout, offers the potential to extend the existing footprint further. The current owners acquired a separate pot of land adjoining the original small garden typical of properties in this and surrounding roads. The enlarged garden, which provides a blank canvas for keen gardeners, is therefore significantly larger than that of similar properties of this size and would remain so even if the property were extended.

The house is an easy walk from Lordship Lane. So, within a short stroll, you can pick and choose amongst the many restaurants on this very foodie oriented stretch of south east London high street; pop in for a pint or a glass of wine in one of the numerous pubs or bars or, if you fancy dinner in, pick up some delicious fresh produce from the many independent food stores or the weekly Northcross Road market. It is also well located for schooling with Heber primary school, St. Anthony's RC primary school and Goodrich primary school all within walking distance.

East Dulwich railway station (which provide direct services into London Bridge (c.13 mins)) is within fifteen minutes walk or a five minute bus ride of the property. Frequent bus services are also available within a few minutes walk, which can take you directly to Victoria, Waterloo and London Bridge or, within fifteen minutes, to any of Denmark Hill, Peckham Rye or Forest Hill railway stations. There you will find direct trains to Victoria and King's Cross stations and access to the London Overground services providing connections to the Jubilee line tube services to Canary Wharf.

You enter the property, through the main door, which is located on Goodrich Road, into a small vestibule. This leads into the large open plan double reception room, which is fitted with wood laminate flooring throughout. To the front the reception room has a large bay fitted with sash windows. To the rear there is a casement window looking on to the side return of the property.

The property also benefits from a large, standing height cellar extending to 15 feet under the reception room which is accessed via a trapdoor in that room. From the reception room a wooden staircase with open balustrade leads to the floors above and provides useful understair storage.

Continuing towards the rear of the house through the reception room, you reach the kitchen. This room is fitted with white high-gloss kitchen units with a granite effect worksurface. There is an integrated oven and hob, washing machine and dishwasher with room for a freestanding fridge freezer. From the kitchen a part glazed door leads into, and a casement window looks onto, the garden. The kitchen has white ceramic tiles to the wall and dark ceramic tiles to the floor.

Returning to the reception room you take the staircase to the upper floors. On the first half landing you will find the first of the bedrooms. This is a small double room, ideal for a child's bedroom or an occasional guest room, and has a sash window looking onto the rear garden.

Continuing up a further small flight of stairs to the generously sized top landing with its arched sash window, you pass the second bedroom on your right. Again, this is a small double room with a casement window looking onto the garden. Next to the second bedroom is the bathroom, which is fitted with a white three-piece suite comprising WC, handbasin and bath with over bath shower. There is also a walk-in shower cubicle and heated towel rail. The walls of the bathroom are tiled with white ceramic tiling and the floor with dark ceramic tiles.

At the front to the property is the master bedroom. This is a bright, generously sized room, with sash windows overlooking both the side and the front of the property.

Externally the property benefits from a small paved front garden area and a mostly walled rear garden. The rear garden is a real feature of the property and, extending to approximately 40 feet, is considerably larger than the norm for properties in this area. The garden is currently laid out as a small concrete patio area and a large lawned area and provides a lovely private space which benefits from shade in the morning and sunshine during the afternoons making it an ideal spot for outside dining or entertaining.

This lovely house is neutrally decorated and finished to a high standard. There is double glazing throughout and all of the windows, save for the kitchen window, are fitted with plantation shutters. The existing owners had investigated with an architect the possibility of extending the property both into the garden and the roof space to create a large kitchen diner and fourth bedroom with ensuite bathroom. Both options were considered feasible but were not progressed as the owners relocated overseas.
