Chain-free starter home near transport links and shops.
Two double bedrooms across approx. 667 sq ft
An accessible two-bedroom Victorian terraced house on Selsdon Road, offered chain-free and ready for immediate purchase. The house sits on a small plot with a private rear garden and off-street parking suitable for a small car — a rare convenience for this location. Inside, the layout includes a front reception, modern open-plan kitchen/diner, bathroom and two double bedrooms across an average-sized 667 sq ft. Gas central heating and double glazing are already installed.
This property suits first-time buyers seeking an affordable entry into South Croydon with fast broadband, good local schools and immediate access to train, tram and bus links. The area’s shops, bars and restaurants are within easy walking distance, making daily errands and evenings out straightforward. Council tax is described as affordable which supports lower running costs.
Be realistic about the maintenance and practical downsides. The house was built 1900–1929 with solid brick walls that likely lack cavity insulation; buyers should budget for possible wall insulation or other energy-efficiency upgrades. The double glazing is older (pre-2002) and may need replacing in time. The plot is small and street-facing, with parking limited to a compact vehicle. Crime levels in the area are above average, so consider security measures.
Overall this is a practical, well-located starter home with scope to improve energy performance and personalise finishes. Its chain-free status and transport links make it an attractive move for buyers prioritising convenience and a quick purchase process.
