A traditional 1930s semi-detached home offered chain-free via auction, set on a quiet cul-de-sac with a detached garage and private rear garden. The layout includes two reception rooms, a fitted kitchen, three bedrooms and a family bathroom across approximately 945 sq ft — a practical size for a small family.
The house has gas central heating and double glazing, good broadband and excellent mobile signal, and is freehold. It sits close to Purley, Kenley and Riddlesdown stations, with well-regarded primary and secondary schools nearby, and a public footpath from the side of the plot that leads to views over Riddlesdown Common.
