Knight Frank - Dulwich Village Sales Agent Valuation of this property is £1,750,000

Description:

The Terraces are three stunning new contemporary homes featuring wildflower green roofs and indoor contemplation pools. Each has three bedrooms and an additional study/fourth bedroom. Built on the footprint of a pre-existing carriage block and cottage, their size and area are governed by the plot of this former building, ensuring that they sit in harmony with Beltwood House itself.

Approached from the rear of Beltwood House, the Terraces are staggered, moving progressively further away from the villa. This provides a flow and a rhythm to the site, which the previous curtilage buildings lacked – the whole now has a more considered and formal appearance. The cut-outs to the front façade of the Terraces, the first-floor balconies, the planters, which are an integral part of the buildings, all reinforce the balanced perspective and accentuate the sense of character typical of the whole site. Inside, you can be assured of the finest in contemporary bathroom and kitchen design, and the very top-end of smart home infrastructure and hardware, comprising features such as state-of-the-art “plaster-over” invisible speakers and centralised lighting controls. Note that each house has its own rear garden and an allocated parking space.

History
Beltwood House is a beautiful neoclassical Victorian mansion situated in a private parkland setting extending to just over three acres. This important architectural jewel is Grade II listed and has been sensitively restored to its former glory by a heritage-focused team of skilled craftspeople and artisans. The house sits within protected woodland, part of the Dulwich Wood Conservation Area, with many of the trees protected by preservation orders.

Architecturally, Beltwood House has a rich heritage and is believed to have been designed by Robert Richardson Banks and Charles Barry Jr, who between them designed the main building of Dulwich College, Bylaugh Hall in Norfolk, the forecourt of Burlington House and 12 Kensington Palace Gardens, currently the Russian Embassy. Moreover, Barry's father designed the Houses of Parliament (Palace of Westminster), perhaps the most influential Gothic Revival building in the world. A formal Italianate parterre garden was added to the grounds of Beltwood House at a later date.

One of the main goals in renovating Beltwood House and its grounds was to preserve this historic home and facilitate its removal from the English Heritage 'At Risk' register, restoring it to its original glory. Forming part of the Dulwich Estate (a charity established in 1619 to endow Dulwich College, and the guardian of the heritage of much of the Dulwich area) and, originally, the Great North Wood (an ancient wood which extended from Deptford in the north to Croydon in the south, remnants of which survive on the site itself and in Sydenham Hill Wood and Dulwich Wood), it is a unique property in a distinctive, sylvan setting.

For those in the know, the allure of London is a long way from the familiar tourist sites, department stores and chain restaurants. In fact, the true charm of London is waiting to be discovered in the capital's network of outlying villages, each with its own unique appeal.

Here, you'll find everything you need to live your best London life, from stylish home décor to the latest fashions and from gastropubs to restaurants serving authentic global cuisine. In the vibrant streets of Peckham's Bellenden Village, vintage fashion boutiques rub shoulders with artisan delis, independent bookstores and the renowned Persian shop and restaurant Persepolis. Spend a lazy Sunday cooling off at Brockwell Lido or browsing among the fresh produce, organic food and second-hand collectables at Haynes Lane market in Gypsy Hill.

When it comes to leisure, you'll be spoiled for choice. Take in an arthouse movie at the East Dulwich Picturehouse or a blockbuster on the giant screen at the Odeon bfi imax, just a short stroll from the South Bank complex of performance and exhibition halls. Family-friendly museums, world-class theatres and a host of music venues offer all-year-round entertainment. In a city blessed with vast swathes of green spaces, there are plenty of options for family outings. Your new home is within easy reach of Kew Gardens, Richmond and Greenwich Parks, and Battersea Park Children's Zoo, to name a few. And with an excellent network of rail and bus services on your doorstep, you'll have no trouble navigating your way across one of the most exciting and enriching cities in the world.
