- Large private garden and carriage driveway plus garage
- Period character with double-glazed windows fitted post-2002

Set on sought-after Burdon Lane in South Cheam, this substantial Edwardian detached home (c.1906) extends to about 3,000 sq ft across three floors. The layout includes five bedrooms, three bathrooms and four reception rooms, giving genuine flexibility for a growing family and home working. A large, private garden and carriage driveway with space for multiple vehicles plus a garage create excellent outdoor living and parking convenience.
Period features and contemporary comforts sit side by side: double-glazed windows installed post-2002, mains gas central heating and well-proportioned rooms that benefit from generous natural light. The kitchen and breakfast/dining space are described as generous, supporting everyday family life and entertaining. Local schools rank highly and the area is affluent, quiet and well connected to local amenities and transport.
Buyers should note the EPC rating is D and external walls are original solid brick (likely uninsulated), so there is scope — and potential cost — for energy-efficiency improvements. Council Tax Band G means annual running costs will be relatively high. As an Edwardian house of this age, buyers should also budget for ongoing maintenance and potential updating to suit modern living preferences.
Overall, the house offers rare scale and character in a prime South Cheam location. It will particularly suit families seeking space, excellent schools nearby and a private garden, and buyers prepared to invest in energy upgrades or sympathetic modernisation.
