A chain-free, extended four-bedroom detached house arranged over three floors, set a short walk from Purley mainline station. The accommodation suits commuting families who need flexible living space: two reception rooms, a study (or fifth bedroom), and a principal bedroom with en-suite. The property benefits from a large rear extension, a south-facing garden and off-street parking plus an integral double garage with electric door.
Local amenities are a strong selling point. Purley station is approximately an eight-minute walk, with frequent 25-minute services to central London. Highly regarded state and independent schools are nearby and Riddlesdown Common is within easy reach for outdoor recreation. The house’s 1,646 sq ft footprint and decent plot offer scope for family living and modest reconfiguration.
Buyers should note material negatives: the EPC is rated D, council tax is expensive, and the area records very high crime levels — factors to consider for insurance and running costs. While the home appears well-maintained with double glazing and gas central heating, some cosmetic updating may be desired to modernise finishes after the 1980s construction.
