Charming semi with garden, driveway and scope to extend — near Merstham station.
Wood-burning stove in sitting room creates a cosy focal point
A charming two-bedroom semi-detached character home offering comfortable living and genuine scope to add value. The sitting room centres on a wood-burning stove, creating a cosy focal point, while the open-plan kitchen/diner provides a practical family hub. Both double bedrooms feature built-in wardrobes and the first-floor modern bathroom is fully tiled.
Outside, an enclosed rear garden stretches from a raised decked terrace to a lawn and planted borders, plus a shingled seating area and an attached timber store/bar with power and light — perfect for summer entertaining or a home workshop. Off-street driveway parking adds daily convenience and the property sits on a quiet no-through road within easy walking distance of Merstham station, local shops and good road links for commuters.
There is clear potential to extend or reconfigure the layout (subject to usual consents), making this a good option for buyers wanting long-term growth. Practical considerations: the house is a solid-brick period build (c.1900–1929) and is assumed to lack wall insulation, so energy improvements may be needed. The property shows some dated wear and will benefit from updating in places.
Other local facts to note: broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, council tax is described as affordable, but local crime levels are above average. Overall this is a characterful, well-located home suited to first-time buyers or small families willing to invest some cosmetic and energy-efficiency work to unlock future value.
