Lewin Road, London, SW16

Set on one of Streatham’s most desirable tree-lined roads, this magnificent five-bedroom Victorian home is a rare opportunity to secure a property of exceptional charm and scale. Lewin Road is steeped in character and history, once home to the Great Exhibition’s legacy of grand houses, and this residence stands as a beautiful example of period craftsmanship paired with modern family living.

The house opens with an elegant hallway leading into two impressive reception rooms, both with high ceilings, ornate cornicing, feature fireplaces, and sash windows drawing in natural light. The rear reception enjoys French doors opening onto the landscaped garden, providing a pleasant connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces.

At the rear, the kitchen and dining space serves as the heart of the home, finished with bespoke cabinetry and sleek worktops, with direct access onto the garden terrace – ideal for family gatherings and entertaining. A basement adds valuable storage and utility space.

Upstairs, five well-proportioned bedrooms include a generous principal suite with its own en-suite, complemented by a further family bathroom. The top floor features a stylish loft living area, complete with exposed beams and skylight, perfect as a snug or home office.

Outside, the landscaped garden provides a tranquil retreat with mature planting, lawn and patio space, while off-street parking to the front adds further convenience.

Lewin Road places you within easy reach of Streatham and Streatham Common stations, providing swift links into London Bridge, Blackfriars, and Victoria. The property is surrounded by excellent amenities including independent cafés, gastropubs, and popular schools, while the wide-open spaces of Streatham Common and The Rookery gardens are just a short stroll away.
