Devonshire Road, Forest Hill, London, SE23

An expansive and characterful four-bedroom semi-detached Victorian home offering over 1,550 sq ft of internal space — ideal for growing families seeking generous proportions and scope to further extend (STPP).

Perfectly positioned between Forest Hill and Honor Oak Park, the property enjoys easy access to a vibrant mix of independent shops, cafés, restaurants, and excellent transport links via both National Rail and London Overground services.

Stepping inside, the home welcomes you via a generous entrance hall, featuring stripped wood flooring and period details that nod to its Victorian heritage. To the front, a bright and elegant reception room offers a warm, inviting space to relax. To the rear, a spacious kitchen/diner opens into a light-filled conservatory, creating a versatile area for family living or entertaining.

Upstairs, the first floor hosts a generous principal bedroom with a striking bay window, alongside a second double bedroom overlooking the garden. Both are served by a well-appointed shower room. The top floor features two further double bedrooms, each with built-in wardrobes and ample natural light, as well as a family bathroom.

Outside, the rear garden is a peaceful haven — beautifully landscaped with mature borders and a lush lawn, perfect for outdoor dining, play, or quiet retreat. Side access provides additional convenience, while off-street parking sits at the front of the property. The property also benefits a useful cellar providing additional storage.

There is notable scope to reconfigure or extend the ground floor into a larger open-plan kitchen/dining space, as demonstrated by neighbouring properties (subject to planning and building regulations).

A rare opportunity to secure a spacious, move-in-ready period home in one of SE23’s most desirable pockets — close to sought-after schools, green spaces, and the best of Forest Hill and Honor Oak Park living.
