Summary - 38 RIVER GARDENS CARSHALTON SM5 2NH
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Chain-free renovation project near highly regarded schools and transport.
Three-bedroom semi-detached with period bay windows
A Tudor‑Revival semi with period bay windows and generous reception space, set on a quiet road in Carshalton. The house offers three bedrooms, a long lounge/dining room and a private rear garden with a garage — a rare combination close to well‑regarded schools and local transport links.
This is a renovation opportunity: the property requires updating throughout and was built with solid brick walls that likely lack cavity insulation. The single bathroom and older fittings mean immediate modernisation will be needed, but the roomy principal bedroom and 26'9" bay reception give strong scope for creating a comfortable family home.
Practical benefits include freehold tenure, no onward chain, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Low flood risk, affordable council tax and proximity to Outstanding and Good schools make this especially suitable for families seeking long‑term location value.
Buyers should budget for refurbishment work (including insulation and possible heating/electrical updates). For someone ready to invest time and money, the house offers genuine potential to add value and tailor the layout to modern family life.
