Set on a wider-than-usual plot on Shirley Way, this extended three-bedroom semi-detached home blends 1930s Tudor character with practical family living. The ground floor offers generous reception space including a large lounge, dining room, conservatory-style living area and a snug that can serve as a fourth bedroom or home office. A semi-converted garage provides workshop/utility space and there is off-street parking for three cars.
Upstairs are three double bedrooms, the main with fitted wardrobes and an en-suite, plus a family bathroom. The secluded rear garden is a real family asset: paved entertaining patio, lawn, pond, a powered log cabin and children’s playhouse. There is clear potential to extend further — planning permission has already been agreed for a side extension over the garage (details on Croydon Planning website).
Practical points to note: the property sits on solid brick walls with no confirmed insulation, and glazing dates are unspecified. The hot tub is currently not in use. Heating is mains gas to a boiler and radiators; council tax is described as expensive. These are realistic considerations for buyers planning upgrades or energy-efficiency improvements.
This home is well placed for families: very low local crime, fast broadband, excellent mobile signal, and a selection of well-rated primary and secondary schools nearby. Public transport links are good, with buses on Shirley Way and East Croydon station providing fast trains to central London and Gatwick — useful for commuters and families alike.
