Description
This Grade II-listed, white-stucco, semi-detached magnificent villa, coming to the market for the first time in over 35 years, lies on the favoured East side of St John's Wood. Built in c1844, the house has been meticulously preserved, with beautiful interior design which compliments the property’s period features. Set back from the street and approached via a private driveway with space for 3-4 cars, the house is accessed via steps to a raised ground-floor entrance. An expansive entrance hall with balcony leads onto a dual-aspect drawing room, flooding with natural light, running the length of the property, and opens to a balcony, which in turn, leads to the exquisite garden; beautiful parquet flooring runs underfoot and fireplaces add grandeur. On the lower ground floor, there is a spacious eat-in kitchen and a separate large dining room, perfect for entertaining. Both rooms have direct access to the magical garden. The beautiful master bedroom suite with an en-suite bathroom and a dressing room lies on the first floor, as well as another bedroom with ensuite bathroom. On the top floor there are three further bright, spacious bedrooms, one with an en-suite shower room, and a family bathroom; one of the three bedrooms also has a large mezzanine. There is also a balcony overlooking the garden leading from one of the bedrooms, with ample space to sit outside and enjoy the view. The house is situated on Acacia Road in St John’s Wood, with close access to excellent schools, such as the American School of London. It is also a short stroll from St. John’s Wood High Street, offering an array of boutique shops, restaurants and cafes. St John's Wood Underground Station (Jubilee Line) is a moments walk away.
