Description

This unique land opportunity at Forest House in Sydenham presents a promising canvas for prospective buyers looking to construct a tailored, low-energy eco-home that harmonizes with the surrounding natural beauty. Encompassing around 2,600 sq. ft. across two levels, the site allows for a bespoke architectural design featuring four bedrooms and impressive sustainability credentials. Designed by the acclaimed architect Jonathan Pile, known for his innovative and award-nominated projects, this plot offers potential homeowners a chance to create a modern living space while respecting the existing landscape. The thoughtful plan retains all mature trees and incorporates self-sown hedgerows, ensuring environmental consciousness in the building process. Notably, there is an option to subdivide the property into two distinct units (subject to planning permission), which enhances investment value. One can establish a principal residence alongside an independently accessed annex—ideal for extended family or generating rental income. Situated in central Sydenham, merely 0.1 miles from Sydenham Station with swift connections to London Bridge, this location boasts easy access to vibrant local amenities along its high street, including shops and eateries. The connectivity extends seamlessly to nearby neighborhoods like Crystal Palace and Dulwich. Forest House stands out as not only an individual property but also as an investment opportunity shaped by forward-thinking design principles focused on sustainability and community integration.
