This Dora Road house is a home that has been thoughtfully designed for modern family life. Period proportions remain intact, yet the interior has been rethought to create open, sociable spaces that work as well on school mornings as they do for long weekends with friends.





On the ground floor lies a bay-fronted reception room where high ceilings lend a gentle sense of formality. Beyond, a second living space offers a quieter counterpoint, ideal as a snug, study or playroom. The heart of the house lies to the rear: a generous kitchen and dining extension washed in natural light from overhead glazing and bifold doors. A large central island anchors the room, with ample space for dining.





Outside, the garden feels private and settled, with a broad lawn framed by mature planting and a paved terrace positioned for evening sun. Steps rise gently from the house, creating a natural divide between dining and play.





Upstairs, five bedrooms are arranged across the first and second floors following a thoughtful loft extension. The principal bedroom occupies the front of the house with a handsome bay window, fitted storage and an ensuite bathroom. Two further bedrooms share the first floor alongside a family bathroom, while the upper level provides two additional rooms with excellent proportions and eaves storage, well suited to older children, guests or a dedicated home office; bathrooms have been updated in a contemporary palette.





Dora Road sits within a particularly neighbourly pocket of Wimbledon Park, a short walk from the Village and the Common, where weekend routines revolve around park runs, coffee at independent cafés and matches on the tennis lawns. Excellent schools and swift transport links into central London make this a natural choice for families looking to put down roots without losing touch with the city.
