Lovely Edwardian home in residential area, 3o min from central London
We are experienced exchangers. We live in a lovely Edwardian home in a residential part of south London. It has 4 bedrooms - 1 master double bedroom, 2 double bedrooms (including a spare room), 1 single bedrooms - plus a study/spare room with double sofa bed, 3 bathrooms and a large open-plan kitchen, dining and living room area. We have a backyard garden with a BBQ and covered patio area, plus bicycles to borrow.
We're just around the corner from an expansive park (Tooting Bec Common), which has walking and bicycle paths, wooded areas, two playgrounds, tennis courts, and the famous Tooting Bec Lido (a 50-metre open air swimming pool). We're only 15 minutes' walk from vibrant Balham and less than 10 minutes from Streatham Hill, each with a wonderful selection of great restaurants, pubs and cafes. Central London is a quick 15 minute train ride from Streatham Hill Station or Brixton Station, or 30 minutes by Tube from Balham Station. Heathrow is 40 min (by taxi/car) and Gatwick is 45 min (by train).
We have a lovely, gentle cat ("Monty"). He is very low maintenance but would need to be fed everyday.

Lovely house, a little ways out from central London. Many bus lines and a rail station are easy walking distance away. Monty the cat was a sweetie. Our house was in pristine condition when we returned home.

We are a family of four. My husband and I are both professors of Anthropology in the UK. We have a 16 year old daughter and 13 year old son. We also have a cat, Monty, who would need to be fed and watered (but he is otherwise very low maintenance!)
