Occupying a generous plot on one of Beckenham’s most desirable roads, this 1930s detached house offers substantial family accommodation across nearly 1,924 sq ft. The ground floor has two well-proportioned reception rooms, a separate fitted kitchen, utility and cloakroom — practical spaces for daily family life. Upstairs the principal bedroom includes an en‑suite and dressing room, alongside three further bedrooms and a large family bathroom.
Outdoor space is a strong asset: a large south‑facing rear garden and a double garage with horseshoe gravel driveway provide room for children to play, gardening and secure parking. The house sits within walking distance of highly regarded primary and secondary schools, and local rail links at West Wickham and Beckenham Junction offer straightforward commutes into central London.
The property is offered chain free and has scope to extend (subject to planning permission), making it attractive to growing families wanting to create more living space. However, buyers should note the home dates from the 1930s and has solid brick walls assumed without insulation, so upgrading insulation and windows may be needed to improve energy efficiency. Council tax is described as quite expensive.
Practical considerations: the property sits in a medium flood‑risk area and broadband speeds are fast but mobile signal is average. Overall this is a spacious, characterful family home with strong schools and transport nearby, best suited to buyers willing to carry out energy and cosmetic improvements to modernise.
