Chislehurst is a 6,000sq ft, 5 bedroom, detached Arts and Crafts Location House in Greater London with beautiful contemporary interiors which are sympathetic to the period of the house, having retained many original features. The house is set in well maintained gardens approaching 1 acre and has off street parking for 5 cars in the driveway.
A handsome entrance opens to a wide hall with music room to the right and tv room to the left. The hall is half panelled, painted in F&B muted colours and has a distressed oak floor. There are multiple fireplaces and features in the house that have been restored and now sit comfortably with the contemporary decor and furnishings.
Immediately ahead is the formal lounge; a large room with original parquet flooring, half panelled walls, and huge bay window which overlooks the rear terrace and gardens beyond. There are French doors which open to provide access outside. The fireplace is original and is in working condition.
Further down the hall and next to the sitting room is the formal dining room. Another large room with access to the garden, a table suitable for 12 people, an open fireplace (not in working order) and walls painted entirely in a bold shade 'Stiffkey Blue' F&B.Â
At the end of the hall is the double height, open plan kitchen diner. Once the billiards room, the owners have a created a fabulous kitchen in a modern country style with painted shaker units, large island and both marble and timber countertops. There are some light industrial elements in this room and the flooring is oak herringbone parquet.
