An extended three-bedroom family home in the middle of the Triangle, with off-road parking and a stunning rear extension. The house has been thoughtfully designed and lovingly refurbished to create a spacious home that is not just stylish but also practical, with all that Crystal Palace is loved for on your doorstep. There is also the possibility of extending into the loft space, as some neighbouring properties have done.

Carberry Road is located in the heart of the Triangle, off Westow Street. As locations go, it really is prime! It’s home to a row of cute Victorian Cottages, and this particular one has been extensively redesigned to create a beautiful modern family home that fuses period charm with contemporary design. 

The standout feature in this home is the kitchen/diner, which has been extended to create a space that feels bright, airy, open, and yet private (considering there is so much glass!). It’s a fantastically social space, too, which would be ideal for hosting your friends and family but is equally practical for family life. There is a snug/living space at the beginning of the kitchen/dining space, currently set up with an L-shaped sofa; it works really well and creates that open living space so many families desire.

The garden is accessed via the open-plan kitchen, which is great for hosting garden parties. You can easily access the kitchen from the garden, and this space will no doubt make its new owner a popular host!

At the front of the house is the third bedroom, which could also be used as a separate reception room; it has a period fireplace, an integrated wardrobe and a characterful sash window. The bathroom is between the third bedroom and the kitchen, which features a large walk-in shower. It has a very contemporary finish, with funky modern tiles and modern sanitaryware.

Moving upstairs, there are two double bedrooms. The bedroom at the front of the house benefits from the building’s width and has a south-facing aspect, making it incredibly bright. A handy wardrobe is built into the space above the staircase, and a further wardrobe is to the left of the attractive period fireplace. The original floorboards are exposed, which adds real character to the room alongside the sash windows and fireplace! The second bedroom is carpeted and has a view over the garden to the rear. It isn’t hugely dissimilar in size to the front bedroom and has a loft hatch, giving access to plenty of storage in the loft space.

The garden is very low maintenance and has a northwest aspect, giving it the sun from mid-afternoon all the way through to sunset, which is ideal when entertaining in the garden into the evening. The house also benefits from secure off-street parking, at the end of the row of houses opposite is a car park which is only accessible by residents, there is a £30 a month contribution to the car park, and each resident has one space, this is a huge benefit to the house, especially considering its location right in the middle of the Triangle!

As mentioned above, there is scope to extend upwards as some neighbouring houses have already done so, two of which sold for £835,000 & £880,000 a couple of years ago.

Location-wise, the house sits literally in the middle of the Triangle, surrounded by Westow Street, Westow Hill & Church Road, which form Crystal Palace’s celebrated “Triangle” where you are spoilt for choice with restaurants, pubs, and brilliant eateries. There’s an Everyman Cinema literally moments away, yoga schools, and the list goes on! It is worth noting that whilst you are in the middle of the Triangle, it is actually very quiet and peaceful here. Carberry Road is a dead-end road, and you can also nip through Telford Close, which is a pedestrianised road, to get to Church Rd very easily.  

There is a Sainsbury’s supermarket a couple of hundred yards away, and the wonderful Crystal Palace Food Market on Haynes Lane, which operates every Saturday, offering the best from small sustainable farmers and local food producers, is very almost opposite Carberry Rd. Brunch, dinner and cocktails are all catered for within moments of the house and the choice of coffee shops is just dazzling.

Both Gipsy Hill & Crystal Palace Stations are just half a mile away (downhill on the way there to both!), giving access to London Bridge & Victoria as well as the City, Shoreditch and East London. Crystal Palace Park is also on your doorstep, which offers 200 acres of grade 2 listed grounds to enjoy, it also houses the Crystal Palace National Sports Centre with its gym, squash courts and a few activities you wouldn’t find at your average gym including trampolining, beach volleyball and an on-site physio.
