A spacious four-bedroom Victorian terraced home on Pretoria Road, offered chain free and ideal for growing families. The house retains period character — bay windows, high ceilings and original brickwork — across roughly 1,630 sq ft of living space arranged over multiple storeys. The rear reception leads directly to a private, west-facing ~32 ft garden that captures afternoon sun.
The layout works well as a practical family home now, with two reception rooms, a cellar, kitchen/dining room and four bedrooms upstairs. There is clear scope to increase living space by extending to the rear and into the loft (subject to planning permission), which will appeal to buyers seeking value-add potential in this popular Furzedown location.
Notable practical points: the mid-terrace was built c.1900–1929 with solid brick walls and no confirmed modern cavity insulation, and the garden is currently overgrown and will need maintenance. Council tax is above average. These factors mean some upgrading and energy-efficiency improvements are likely if you want to reduce running costs and modernise the home.
Location is a strong selling point: quiet, tree-lined street close to Moyser Road’s cafés and independent shops, roughly 0.5 miles from Streatham Common station and near several highly rated schools (including Penwortham Primary and Graveney Secondary). Low local crime, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal add to day-to-day convenience.
