set behind gates on lauriston road, this substantial double-fronted detached house offers more than 4,200 sq ft of internal space, arranged across four floors with a private rear garden and off-street parking for two cars. positioned less than 100 metres from wimbledon common, the house benefits from an open outlook with no residential properties directly opposite, while the upper floor enjoys views across the common itself. built in 2012, it has the reassuring practicality of a modern house, but with a scale and symmetry that gives it real presence.
the ground floor is arranged for both family life and entertaining. to one side, a generous reception room looks out to the front, while to the rear, a large kitchen and family room stretches across the width of the house, opening directly onto the secluded garden. there is plenty of room here for cooking, dining and hosting, while a separate utility room sits discreetly off the kitchen, helping to keep the day-to-day rhythm of the house neatly out of sight.
the lower ground floor adds another layer of versatility. a cinema room and separate games room and gym create a self-contained leisure level, equally suited to teenagers, guests or informal evenings at home. an additional bedroom and ancillary spaces complete this floor.
on the first floor, the principal bedroom suite is accompanied by a substantial study or dressing room and an ensuite bathroom with a steam room. two further ensuite bedrooms are also arranged on this level. the second floor has two additional bedrooms, one with a walk-in wardrobe, along with a further bathroom. in total, the accommodation can be arranged with six bedrooms, or as five bedrooms and a large study, offering exceptional flexibility for growing families or those needing space for guests, work or hobbies.
lauriston road is particularly well placed for the open expanses of wimbledon common, with wimbledon village just a short walk away for its cafés, restaurants and independent shops. this part of south-west london feels distinctly village-like while remaining well connected. king’s college school is close by, with the study and wimbledon high school also within easy reach, making this an especially compelling address for families looking for space, privacy and an exceptional setting.
