A Victorian London Home with Colorful Living Spaces and a Lush Garden
On a residential street in Telegraph Hill, south-east London, stands this charming three-bedroom Victorian house with colorful living spaces and a lush, private garden.
The house features original elements, such as bay and sash windows, elaborate cornicing, and fireplaces. The house has been extended with a timber-framed conservatory, blending the outdoors with the colorful interior spaces.

The house features a classic double reception room, as you often see in Victorian houses. The front room is bathed in natural light thanks to a large bay window, while the picture rail cornicing and ceiling rose showcase the house’s historic bones.


Double wooden doors separate the two living spaces. The back room is decorated as a dining room.

The room is painted in a stunning midnight blue shade and features a period fireplace with floral tiling flanked by built-in shelving. The original French doors with stained glass open onto the garden.



At the back of the plan, you’ll find the kitchen and the conservatory. The kitchen is designed using sleek white cabinets topped with a gray countertop.

Light pink tiles from Bert & May serve as the backsplash, matching the dusty pink hue on the walls.

On one side, a bay window floods the space with natural light and offers the perfect spot for a kitchen table.



The timber-framed conservatory features a roof constructed from reeded panels, letting in light. The walls are painted in a deep green hue, and the windows and glass doors seamlessly connect this space with the lush garden beyond.

The garden extends more than 20 meters from the conservatory. Closest to the house is a large paved area for outdoor dining. The borders are planted with perennials, plum, cherry, and fig trees.


In the back, there’s a small lawn and raised vegetable beds.


The guest toilet on the ground floor has half-paneled walls topped with Fornasetti wallpaper, marble floor tiles, and a Burlington sink.

The hall is decorated with William Morris’ Pimpernel wallpaper.


There are three bedrooms on the first floor. The master bedroom, at the front of the plan, features two large sash windows, white-painted floorboards, and the original fireplace.


The other two double bedrooms face the lush garden.




The bathroom door features beautiful stained glass. While the bathroom itself is simple with a bathrub with a rain shower, blue mosaic tilework, and small hexagon floor tiles.

A dusty pink front door gives access to the colorful home.

The house is listed for £1.100.000 at Inigo.
