Terraced house for sale in Disraeli Road, Putney, London SW15

A period gem in the truest sense of the word

Description
An extraordinary and truly handsome period house (3,243 sq ft), built in 1896 for Charles Sabow, the German artistic designer and retaining a plethora of historic and original features throughout.

Violet Villa is well known locally and very much admired, with its distinctive sun face mural on the front elevation.

The studio Sabow built at the bottom of the garden is rumoured to have been used as both a "gentleman's club" and billiard room, but now forms a very pretty arbour and seating area, with its south facing aspect and views towards the house.

The accommodation is spacious and charming, with a wealth of period features throughout and provides well balanced accommodation over three floors, plus cellar.

The house is set well back from the road and approached via a pretty front garden and impressive wrought iron gates. On entry, the hall is particularly imposing, with its large mural and vast original mirror.

To the left on entry is a fabulous formal reception room with a beautiful fireplace and mantlepiece and this leads through to a further reception room currently used as a dining room and which features a glorious cast iron range, which would no doubt have formed part of the original kitchen.

This leads in turn into a spectacular kitchen / breakfast / family room, built recently by the current owners and which provides a fabulous family hub and reception space, with direct views over and level access onto the beautiful mature garden, by virtue of the large glass sliding doors.

There is also a good sized utility room and downstairs cloakroom at this level and an ample cellar below stairs.

The principal bedroom suite is situated to the rear of the property with views over the garden and beyond. It has French doors leading onto a pretty Juliette balcony and a sumptuous en suite bathroom with both a free standing feature bath and a separate shower.

The first floor accommodation is rounded off by an unusually large double bedroom, spanning the entire width of the house and which has access to a pretty balcony through French doors.

The top floor accommodation is expansive, with three large double bedrooms and a fabulous, beautifully appointed family bathroom. There is also a walk in wardrobe/linen cupboard.

The rear garden (47') is well landscaped and beautifully planted and gives a stunning backdrop to this very special house.
