About the property
Substantial five-bedroom home which was previously occupied by Sir Henry Tate, which was originally built in the 1830s and then tastefully re-developed in 2000.
This charming home is built and centred around the famous billiards room which was home to Sir Henry Tates artwork (arguably forming the original Tate Gallery), and is beaming with light thanks to the original glass skylights. The later addition of a mezzanine floor (accessed by spiral staircase) is a great addition in keeping with the building and boasts a charming view across the billiards room. The remainder of the house, developed in 2000, comprises of modern kitchen, utility room, five well-proportioned bedrooms (three benefitting from en-suites) and family bathroom. Further benefits include two patio areas, double garage, off-street parking with EV charging point.
The property is nestled away in a privately owned estate, opposite the expansive green spaces of Streatham Common and woodland walk of The Rookery. The common grounds, of which there are 6 acres, feature an orchard, large pond, and woodland areas making for an idyllic setting for families.
Streatham mainline station is located within a mile of the development and offers links into London via Southern and Thameslink.
