Summary - WESTCROFT LEISURE CENTRE, WESTCROFT ROAD SM5 2TG
3 bed 2 bath Detached
Rare detached period house on a large plot, minutes from Carshalton High Street.
Grade II listed detached cottage with historic character
A rare Grade II listed detached house set at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, originally the gardener’s cottage of the Bramblehaw Mansion Estate. The layout suits family life with a large living/dining area, separate sitting room, three bedrooms and practical utility with a shower and cloakroom. The property sits on a notably large plot with a landscaped mature garden and an attractive Queen Anne–style summer house that adds genuine character.
Practical strengths include a long driveway, single garage and double glazing. The house is freehold, has mains gas central heating and no flood risk — helpful for peace of mind in an affluent, well-connected part of Carshalton close to the high street and strong local schools.
Buyers should be aware this is a listed building: maintenance, repairs and any alterations will be subject to listed‑building restrictions and may involve higher costs and longer lead times. The walls are solid brick with assumed no cavity insulation, so upgrading thermal performance will require sensitive, and possibly specialist, work. Council tax is rated as expensive.
This home will appeal to families and professionals who value period character, a very generous plot and proximity to local amenities, and who are prepared to invest in sympathetic updating rather than a turnkey move-in. For those seeking a distinctive, private garden and off-street parking in SM5, this is a rare find.
