Manor Mount, London

Manor Mount is often the first name on the list of most desirable roads to live on in Forest Hill. Its beautiful array of grand period properties located on either side of a tree-lined street make it the address of choice for many a resident. For the lucky residents that happen to live on the road, the benefits include a short stroll down the hill to reach Forest Hill Station (where there is access to the Overground and Southern services) or a short stroll up the hill to reach Horniman Museum & Gardens. Meanwhile, Sainsburys and a variety of independent shops and eateries line London Road just south-west of Manor Mount.

Towards the top of the hill sits a grand Victorian building that was converted into 9 modern apartments. Each property benefits from a well-run block and access to the large communal south-westerly facing rear garden. Located on the top floor sits this impressive 1,250 sq ft flat. Internally, the property comprises 2 sprawling double bedrooms (one with an ensuite bathroom), an open plan kitchen/reception room (extending 33’), the main bathroom and an external storage cupboard.
