4 bed detached house for sale

Glenesk Road, Eltham, London SE9

Guide price £2,000,000 - £2,250,000.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a double-fronted Corbett house in one of Eltham’s most sought-after positions – fronting directly onto the wide green expanse of Eltham Park South. Coming to the market chain-free and for only the second time in 60 years, this substantial Edwardian home combines the elegance of its original features with the comfort and practicality of a full modern renovation.

Since purchasing the property in 2019, the current owners have undertaken a sympathetic transformation from the ground up. A stylish new kitchen extension forms the heart of the home, complemented by three beautifully appointed bathrooms, a complete rewire, new heating and plumbing systems, and thoughtfully designed reception spaces that frame wonderful park views. Character details – including original doors, cornicing, ceiling roses, and restored wooden flooring – sit seamlessly alongside quality finishes such as bespoke Neptune kitchen cabinetry, quartzite work surfaces, and custom oak wardrobes.

The house is currently configured with four bedrooms, though the flexible layout offers scope to remodel into five or six. Subject to permissions, the large loft could be converted to accommodate additional bedrooms and a bathroom, while the existing conservatory offers further potential for replacement with an orangery or extension. A practical two-room cellar provides extra storage, while outside a tool shed with power offers further utility.

The west-facing rear garden stretches over 90 feet, catching the sun throughout the day. Mature fruit trees create a beautiful seasonal backdrop, while the space remains largely a blank canvas – ready to be landscaped to your taste. To the front, an in-and-out driveway provides parking for up to three cars.

Eltham itself is a vibrant and historic area, famed for its green spaces, excellent schools, and strong community. Eltham Palace – the Art Deco mansion with medieval origins – sits nearby, while Eltham High Street offers an ever-improving mix of independent shops, cafés, and restaurants and Westmount Road hosts a row of useful chops, cafes and micro pub. Rail links from Eltham and Mottingham stations provide fast connections into central London, making this location ideal for families and commuters alike.

With its rare double-fronted position, sweeping park views, and extensive programme of high-quality renovations, this remarkable Corbett home is ready for new owners to enjoy – and comes to the market chain-free.
