Set on a generous corner plot in a quiet, tree-lined crescent, this detached 1950s bungalow offers immediate comfort and long-term potential for an established couple or young family. The home is chain-free and presents bright living spaces, two double bedrooms, a modern fitted kitchen, and two shower rooms — all arranged on a single level for easy daily living.
Externally the plot is a major asset: a sweeping rear garden, detached garage and driveway provide parking and outdoor scope. There is clear potential to redesign or extend the house (subject to planning permission), so buyers seeking to increase living space or value will find this a promising opportunity. Two mainline stations and Coulsdon town centre are within comfortable walking distance.
Practical points are straightforward: mains gas central heating, double glazing and a useful utility area. The property retains period character such as coving and a wide reception room, while parts — including the bathrooms and circulation — could be updated to suit contemporary tastes. Note the front approach includes delicate winding steps which may affect mobility.
Overall this bungalow suits buyers who want a ready-to-live-in home with scope to personalise and extend. It is particularly well placed for local schools, green open spaces and good transport links, but purchasers should allow budget and time if pursuing enlargement or internal modernisation.
