A substantial three-bedroom terraced house offering about 1,379 sq ft of living space and a large rear garden. Set over multiple storeys, the layout includes a front reception room, separate dining room and a family room opening onto the garden, plus a side kitchen and two bathrooms. The property is freehold and sits in a well-connected part of SE20 with excellent local transport links.
The house is offered in its natural state and needs renovation throughout — dated kitchen and bathrooms, older fixtures and general redecoration are all present. The structural bones are solid and room proportions are generous: the principal bedroom is nearly 17ft long, bedroom two is just over 14ft, and there is clear potential to modernise or extend for significant uplift in value. Comparable extended and modernised homes nearby have sold for over £700,000; this is priced at £550,000 to reflect the work required.
Outside, the garden is a notable asset: a proper, deep outdoor space suitable for landscaping, a patio, or an outbuilding/studio. There is also potential for off-street parking at the front without immediate kerb-drop works. Practical local amenities include shops and cafés on Maple Road, Crystal Palace Park within a mile, and a strong craft-beer and café scene locally.
Transport is a strong selling point: Avenue Road tram stop is about 0.2 miles away (five-minute walk), Anerley and Penge stations are within easy reach, and several routes provide fast links into central London including Victoria and London Bridge. Local schools include multiple highly rated options (several Harris schools rated Outstanding). Flood risk is low and broadband and mobile signals are good, making this a practical family purchase or investor opportunity with immediate value-add potential.
