A substantial five-bedroom Edwardian family house on an elevated, generous plot in central Croydon. The home retains period features — high ceilings, bay windows and original mouldings — and offers two large reception rooms, a separate kitchen/breakfast room, a full loft floor and a two-room cellar. A private garage and gardens to the front and side add useful outdoor space and parking.
The property is being offered for sale requiring full modernisation. Essential works are likely: cosmetic refurbishment throughout, kitchen and bathroom replacement, and updating of services to modern standards. There is significant scope to reconfigure rooms or extend (subject to consents) to create a contemporary family layout and add value.
Location is a practical selling point: around half a mile from Waddon station and Tramlink with fast links into central Croydon, plus easy access to Purley Way shopping and good local schools. For a family seeking space and character close to transport, this house provides a large footprint and clear renovation potential.
Important negatives: the house needs comprehensive refurbishment, has only one full bathroom, solid-brick walls likely without modern cavity insulation, above-average local crime and an expensive council tax band — all should factor into budgeting and plans.
