Chain-free three-bed with garden near stations, good schools and green spaces — ideal for families ready to renovate..
Chain-free three-bedroom mid-terrace with freehold tenure
This chain-free mid-terrace three-bedroom house on Sydenham Hill offers a practical family layout with clear scope to personalise. The property has three well-proportioned double bedrooms and a generous kitchen-diner with a walk-in larder, plus a downstairs WC — useful for busy households and entertaining. A low-maintenance paved garden provides outdoor space without heavy upkeep.
Location is a key strength: the house sits within easy walking distance of Sydenham Hill and Forest Hill stations (Overground and National Rail), with frequent services into central London. Several well-regarded primary and secondary schools are nearby, including Eliot Bank Primary, and green spaces such as Dulwich Wood and the Horniman Gardens are close by — good for family life and weekend walks.
The property is practical but not fully finished: the EPC is C with potential to improve, the build dates from the late 1970s–early 1980s, and parts of the home will benefit from updating and modernisation to reach higher energy or aesthetic standards. The plot is modest and there is a single bathroom, so buyers should consider space planning if longer-term expansion is desired.
Overall, this house suits a family or buyer looking for a well-located, chain-free home with immediate use and clear renovation upside. It represents a sensible purchase for those who want a ready-to-live-in base with the option to add value through targeted improvements.
