Summary - 73 ROYDENE ROAD LONDON SE18 1PZ
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Extended lounge, garden and planning permission for loft and ground-floor expansion.
Two double bedrooms with original period features
This Victorian mid-terrace offers practical family living with immediate scope to add value. The house has two double bedrooms, a long 26ft lounge/diner with original features, and a private 25ft garden — useful for children and outdoor entertaining. Planning permission is already granted for a loft conversion and ground-floor extension, making this a clear development opportunity for growing families or buy-to-let investors.
The property is freehold and sits in a commuter-focused neighbourhood with good primary schools nearby and fast broadband for working from home. The layout is straightforward: entrance hall, extended lounge/diner, compact kitchen with direct garden access, first-floor bathroom and two double bedrooms. Council Tax Band C and an EPC rating of D are practical facts to note.
There are some material drawbacks to be aware of. The house needs modernisation throughout (dated carpets, some staining and visible wear) and exterior upkeep; potential damp is flagged by period features and finishes. Walls are original solid brick with no known insulation, so energy performance and heating costs may be higher until improved. The plot is small and the single bathroom may feel limiting for larger families.
For a buyer prepared to invest, the granted planning permission, double-aspect lounge and decent garden create attractive potential to increase living space and value. For a family seeking a ready-to-move-in home, expect some renovation and updating work to bring the property to contemporary standards.
