Summary - 3, WESLEY CLOSE, LONDON SE17 3AU
2 bed 1 bath House
Vacant fixer-upper with garden close to major transport links for value seekers.
Vacant freehold terraced house with two double bedrooms
Requires full refurbishment — cosmetic and likely systems work
Private rear garden, small-to-average plot size
Short walk to Elephant & Castle and Kennington stations
Above-average local crime; area has higher deprivation indices
Average overall footprint — limited immediate extension potential
EPC rating to be confirmed; budget for energy upgrades
Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal
Set on a quiet urban close, this two-bedroom freehold terraced house is offered vacant and ready for refurbishment. The ground floor offers a large reception and practical kitchen layout; upstairs has two double bedrooms, a family bathroom and separate WC. A private rear garden adds outdoor space despite the modest plot size.
The property requires full modernisation throughout — cosmetic and likely systems updating — presenting an opportunity to add substantial value. Its freehold tenure and vacant possession make it straightforward for buyers who want to renovate, extend or refit to their own specification.
Location is a primary strength: a short walk to Elephant & Castle and Kennington stations, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Local amenities, parks and several highly rated primary schools are within easy reach, making the house suitable for first-time buyers or investors planning a refurbishment and rental in a well-connected part of south London.
Be candid about drawbacks: the house sits in an area with above-average crime and higher deprivation indices, so buyers should plan security and community considerations. The property’s small plot and average overall size limit extension potential without planning checks. EPC rating is to be confirmed, and refurbishment costs should be factored into any offer.
