Colfe Road, Forest Hill - Two Bedroom Garden Maisonette £500,000 - £525,000

Beautiful two-bedroom period maisonette, fully renovated throughout to an exceptionally high standard, combining original character with refined contemporary finishes.

In through your own front door, and immediately the quality is evident: original wood flooring, column radiators, and a full Farrow & Ball paint scheme create a cohesive, elegant feel.

First on your left is the main sitting room - a sophisticated space painted in ‘Downpipe’, with large sash windows and plantation shutters delivering excellent natural light. A log burner sits centre stage, and two bespoke fitted storage units add both charm and practicality.

Moving along, your bespoke shaker-style kitchen impresses with its timeless cabinetry and Belfast sink. The finish is crisp, classic, and beautifully executed - a kitchen that feels both functional and genuinely delightful to spend time in.

Your principal bedroom sits peacefully to the rear, finished in ‘Peignoir’, with plantation shutters and bespoke built-in storage. The second bedroom, painted in ‘Oval Room Blue’, also benefits from custom storage and works perfectly as a guest room, nursery, or stylish home office. At the top of the stairs, further bespoke storage has been cleverly integrated - ideal for linens, luggage, or seasonal items.

The south-west facing private garden is a standout feature. Sun from midday through to the evening gives you bright afternoons and warm sunset light. It’s fully landscaped, with a patio area, raised decking with built-in seating, two large Corten steel planters with bamboo, and even an apple tree. A genuinely charming outdoor space.

What’s around? Plenty. St David’s Coffee House, Krust Bakery, and Beetroot & Beans are all close by for morning coffees and fresh produce. For pubs, you have Blythe Hill Tavern, The Sylvan Post, and The Honor Oak. The Horniman Museum & Gardens is a local favourite for weekend strolls.

Transport is excellent:
