Chain free three-bedroom semi-detached on large plot (approx. 1,147 sq ft)
A spacious three-bedroom semi-detached house on Kidbrooke Park Road offering a substantial plot and excellent scope for improvement. The property extends to approximately 1,147 sq ft, sits freehold and is sold chain free — attractive to buyers wanting a hands-on project in a well-connected part of SE3. The long rear garden (circa 125 ft), off-street parking for two to three cars and a rear garage/store give genuine scope to enlarge or reconfigure living space, subject to necessary consents.
The house requires renovation throughout: cosmetic and likely systems work are needed, with solid-brick walls (assumed uninsulated), an older heating system and one full bathroom plus separate WC. These are important practical considerations, but they also mean value can be added through targeted upgrades, insulation, kitchen and bathroom replacement, and possible rear/side extension.
Location is a key strength. The property is about 615 metres from Kidbrooke station (around 17 minutes to London Bridge) with straightforward bus links to North Greenwich and the Jubilee line. Kidbrooke Village and Blackheath Village are nearby for shopping, eateries and green space — useful for families and commuters. Local schools include several rated Good or Outstanding, making this a strong candidate for buyers wanting long-term family accommodation.
Be clear about negatives: the house sits in an area with above-average crime and higher-than-average council tax (Band E). The immediate neighbourhood shows some signs of deprivation, and the building’s age and assumed lack of wall insulation mean renovation costs should be factored into any offer. Viewing is recommended for buyers who understand renovation projects and see potential to create a comfortable family home with improved energy performance and modernised interiors.
