Description

This impressive four-storey Victorian terrace, constructed in 1870, is situated on a tranquil residential street in Vauxhall, within a sought-after Conservation Area. The property’s prime location offers convenient access to the historic Albert Square community gardens, providing residents with an inviting outdoor space just steps away. Upon entering the home, you are greeted by a welcoming hallway characterized by high ceilings that extend throughout the property. The expansive double reception room features large bay windows and original sash windows that fill the space with natural light. The intricate coving and two working fireplaces add to the unique charm of this living area. The lower ground basement offers significant potential for renovation; once used as a wine cellar, it could be transformed into additional living space or an entertainment area, subject to planning permissions. At the rear of the ground floor lies a spacious open-plan kitchen and dining area designed for both casual family gatherings and entertaining guests. This well-appointed kitchen boasts ample storage, quality appliances—including a dual oven and gas hob—and generous workspace with an island. Bi-fold doors seamlessly connect this space to a charming walled courtyard garden, which is perfect for outdoor dining or enjoying morning coffee amid established greenery. The upper floors host four thoughtfully laid out double bedrooms that retain their Victorian character while being illuminated by large sash windows. The first floor contains two generously sized bedrooms along with a modern family bathroom featuring both a bath and walk-in shower, plus an additional separate WC for convenience. The uppermost floor includes a serene master bedroom alongside another room ideal for use as an office or guest accommodation. The west-facing courtyard garden serves as a peaceful retreat adorned with mature trees such as palm and wisteria, making it ideal for gardening or leisurely afternoons outdoors. From the upper roof terrace, residents can enjoy sweeping views over London’s distinctive skyline—an appealing feature of urban living in this central location. St Stephen’s Terrace is tucked away within a low-traffic conservation area that fosters community spirit while remaining close to the vibrancy of central London. Nearby amenities include riverside walks along the Thames, green spaces at Vauxhall Park and Battersea Park, as well as various local pubs, restaurants, artisanal coffee shops, and cultural landmarks like Oval Cricket Ground and Battersea Power Station. For those reliant on public transport, connectivity is exceptional; Vauxhall, Stockwell, Oval, and Nine Elms stations are all within easy reach, linking residents to multiple transport lines including the Victoria and Northern Lines.
