This detached three-bedroom bungalow on Hillbrow Road offers roomy single-storey living in a highly sought BR1 location. At approximately 1,400 sq ft with a wrap‑around garden and detached garage, the house is chain free and well placed for families—Ravensbourne rail station and Beckenham Place Park are within easy reach.
The property requires renovation and modernisation throughout: the solid brick walls are likely uninsulated, double glazing install date is unknown, and the interior needs general TLC. Heating is via a mains‑gas boiler and radiators, and broadband speeds in the area are reported slow. These factors should be weighed against the home's generous footprint and scope to add value.
There is clear potential for enlargement: a side stairwell leads to a full‑length roof terrace and the layout may allow an extension above, subject to local planning permission. Nearby outstanding primary schools and plentiful green space make this a practical long‑term family home or a renovation project for an investor.
Note practical drawbacks: local crime rates are above average, council tax is described as expensive, and the property will need work to meet modern energy and comfort standards. For buyers seeking a spacious, private bungalow with development upside in a commuter‑friendly area, this is a strong opportunity.
