Summary - 218 BRIGHTON ROAD PURLEY CR8 4HB
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Bright four-bedroom house with large garden and easy train links.
Four double bedrooms, master with en‑suite shower
This handsome Tudor Revival detached house offers generous, well-balanced living across approximately 1,718 sq ft — ideal for growing families who need space and good local schools. The ground floor provides two reception rooms, a large 19' kitchen/breakfast room and direct access to a private rear garden with off-street parking beyond. The first floor houses four double bedrooms, including a master with fitted wardrobes and an en‑suite shower room.
The property is well presented throughout and blends original character with contemporary touches: exposed timbering to the façade, a character fireplace, large windows and wooden flooring create a warm, comfortable feel. Transport links are strong — Reedham and Purley stations are within easy reach with direct services to central London; the A23 and Gatwick are also convenient for commuters and occasional flyers.
Important practical points: the home dates from the 1930s–1940s and has solid brick walls with no confirmed cavity insulation, so buyers should budget for potential energy-efficiency improvements. The current EPC rating is D. Council tax is described as expensive. Overall the plot is large, broadband and mobile signals are strong, and crime levels are low, which together support a high quality of family living.
For families seeking space, good schools nearby and easy commuting, this property offers a rare combination of period character, adaptable living space and a private garden with parking. Buyers who prioritise top energy performance should factor in retrofit or insulation costs.
