Set back in a sought-after cul-de-sac in Kenley, this well-presented four-bedroom detached house offers ready-to-move-in family accommodation on a substantial, level plot. Recently renovated kitchen and bathrooms combine modern appliances and finishes — a high-spec Symphony kitchen with integrated Miele appliances, composite worktops and tiled underfloor heating — with comfortable living spaces including a double-aspect lounge, dining area and conservatory that open to the garden.
The house sits on a large, private plot with generous front and rear lawns, a wide paved patio for al fresco entertaining, mature planting and a detached double garage with driveway parking for several vehicles. Upstairs are four well-proportioned bedrooms with fitted wardrobes, the principal bedroom benefiting from a recently refitted en suite; the family bathroom has an over-bath Aqualisa power shower. The home is freehold and presented in good decorative order, having been on the market for the first time in over 35 years.
Practical strengths include good local schooling (The Hayes School is very close and several highly regarded secondaries are in catchment), easy road links to the M25/M23 and a 1.1-mile walk to Kenley station with services into central London. Note the property’s construction period (c.1976–82) and current EPC rating of D — while the house has modern fittings, some thermal performance and glazing details are older or undocumented. Broadband speeds are reported slow locally.
This home will suit families seeking a spacious, move-in-ready suburban house with strong outdoor amenity and excellent parking. Buyers should be aware of higher local council tax, check glazing/insulation history if energy performance is a priority, and factor in broadband limitations for remote working needs.
