Extended four-bedroom semi-detached family home
This extended four-bedroom semi offers spacious, flexible family living with period character and practical modern touches. The ground floor includes two reception rooms, a 16'6" kitchen/breakfast room with skylights and underfloor heating, plus a separate utility room, ground-floor WC and integral garage with internal access.
A major selling point is the large, west-facing rear garden with flagstone patio, built-in BBQ, lawn, fruit cage, raised veg beds, greenhouse and shed — excellent for outdoor family life and entertaining. Planning permission has been granted to extend further to the rear in line with the existing kitchen/breakfast room, creating clear scope to increase living space (subject to completing the approved works).
Practical features: off-street parking for two cars with EV charging, fast broadband and good mobile signal, EPC rating C and mains gas heating via boiler and radiators. The house sits 2–4 minutes’ drive from Riddlesdown station and several highly regarded schools, making it particularly convenient for families commuting to central London.
Points to note: the property, built in 1939, will benefit from some modernisation and energy-efficiency improvements (cavity walls assumed to lack insulation; double-glazing install dates unknown). Council Tax Band E is above average for buyers to factor into running costs. No flooding risk is recorded.
