Manor Lane, Hither Green, London, SE13

Enviably set opposite Manor House Gardens, this impressive five-bedroom end-of-terrace period home occupies a large standout corner plot. The unique footprint features a much wider rear elevation, effectively making it double fronted from the back, creating a sense of volume and lateral space rarely found in the area.



With leafy outlooks across the park and approximately 1,816 sq.ft / 168.8 sq.m of accommodation, it offers wonderfully generous family space throughout. This substantial home combines bright, well-balanced accommodation with high ceilings and a layout that has been thoughtfully improved to suit modern family life.

The ground floor is arranged for everyday ease, with a welcoming front reception and a superb, particularly spacious, open-plan kitchen / dining / entertaining room to the rear that naturally becomes the hub of the house. Wide rear fold-away glass doors connect beautifully to the garden, while a really practical shower room / utility room adds that all-important “mudroom” functionality for busy households. There are also attractive wooden double glazed sash windows to the front, combining period character with modern efficiency.

Across the upper floors, the house offers five versatile double or twin bedrooms, making it ideally suited to growing families. The first floor is complemented by a family bathroom, providing a comfortable space for day-to-day routines. The bedrooms are wonderfully flexible in their use, with space for dedicated children’s rooms, guest accommodation, study, or nursery. The top floor is currently arranged as a large bedroom and study area with lovely views over gardens and excellent scope to enhance further, including the potential for a larger dormer window, STPP, to create an even more impressive principal room.

Outside, the south-facing garden has been elevated into a genuine lifestyle space and enjoys a serene open feel, whilst not being overlooked. In addition to side access, there is a large home office / summerhouse, ideal for hybrid working, a studio, gym or teenagers’ hangout, along with a smart decked area featuring a pergola and wisteria, creating a brilliant spot for outdoor dining and summer evenings. The house also benefits from excellent storage, including large accessible eaves space, a linen cupboard, under stairs storage and a huge amount of useful space within the studio neatly concealed behind sliding doors.

The location is perfect for families, essentially using Manor House Gardens as an extended front garden. Positioned directly opposite, you can enjoy the children’s play park, pond, popular Park Cafe, and the farmers' market every Saturday, while also being within easy reach of Blackheath village and Greenwich Park.

A short walk away is the vibrant centre of Hither Green which includes a Sainsbury’s Local, Flex Pilates, AIKO boutique hair salon, You Don’t Bring Me Flowers florist, the neighbourhood Italian restaurant and pizzeria (Sapore Vero), craft beer and chocolate shop (Park Fever), The Station Hotel gastropub and of course the transformed and modernised Hither Green Station.

There are several Ofsted rated ‘outstanding’ primary schools and excellent children’s day nursery options close by in Hither Green, Lee and Blackheath. Colfes is just a 15 minute walk and there are school bus pickups locally for both Eltham College and Farringtons.

Travel time to London Bridge is just 9 minutes from Hither Green Station, as well as direct trains to Charing Cross (19mins), Cannon Street (16mins), Waterloo East (15mins), and Blackfriars (28mins). The speed of connectivity, literally 20 minutes, door-to-door, from this location to London Bridge offices or Borough Market / Bermondsey Street restaurants, makes it one of London’s most sought-after hubs for effortless access to central London.
