The Fanthorpe Street Residence
Perks for the Parents
Retreat to this polished Putney home featuring period features, a green leafy garden and plenty of space for the family. It sleeps 8. This is a great location for families, with tree-lined streets and the riverside nearby, as well as easy access to visit the sights of central London. Spend your days exploring the neighborhood parks or sampling the relaxed pubs along the water, before returning to this spacious residential home and peaceful relaxing garden.
Why Kids Love it
There’s plenty of space for kids to choose their own room, and they’ll love having the top floor bedroom accessed by a colorful spiral staircase. Putney Common is 5 minutes walk, if the kids need a run-around, or you can walk a little further to Barnes Common where there is a large children’s playground. For wildlife lovers, visit the WWT London Wetlands center (5 minutes’ drive) or take a trip to the All England Lawn Tennis Club at Wimbledon (10 minutes’ drive) for a taste of sporting history.
Things to Know
No pets, parties or smoking. The lead guest must be at least 25 years old. All guests will receive a rental agreement prior to their stay which you are required to sign and submit. This home is over 3 floors, so there are a fair few steps. One of the beds is located on a little mezzanine and accessed by a ladder, involving a very small climb. There's a double sofabed in the TV room that could sleep a further 2 guests if needed. This home comes equipped with extra speedy broadband.
About the Location
The house is located in the leafy Putney neighborhood, a welcome retreat for the city, yet within easy reach via the District Line subway (Putney station, 15 minutes’ walk). You can hop on the Thames riverboat from Putney Pier (10 minutes’ walk) to sail up the water into central London via a more picturesque route. There are plenty of restaurants, pubs and shops within walking distance, and lots of parks and green spaces in this residential area. Heathrow airport is around half an hour by car.
Accommodation Details
The property has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, set over 3 floors. There’s an elegant living room which spans from the front to the back of the house, leading to the sun-lit kitchen with an eat-in dining table and retractable doors to the garden terrace. Upstairs, there’s a kingsize bed in the primary bedroom, plus a double room, a snug (with a double sofabed) and a study room with spiral steps up to the top floor. On the top floor, there’s a queensize bedroom and a walk-in shower room. The family bathroom on the first floor has a shower-over-bathtub.
Style Notes
Elegant Edwardian. This well-designed house is decorated with fresh light tones, large windows and sleek furnishings. The living room peppers its classic townhouse aesthetic with a modernist touch, expertly combining clean lines with retro curves and simple contrasts with pops of color. We love the eye-catching modern artwork featuring abstract shapes and vibrant colors, the quirky whiteboard wall in the bedroom and the beautiful large bay windows.
