Set back in a quiet cul-de-sac, this chain-free three-bedroom semi offers practical family living across two floors. The bay-front reception and adjoining dining room give flexible space for everyday life, while a conservatory creates a direct link to the private rear garden — good for children and weekend entertaining. Off-street parking and a single garage provide convenient storage and secure vehicle space.
The kitchen is contemporary with modern appliances and wood flooring, and there is a separate utility room for additional practicality. Bedrooms include two generous doubles and a smaller third ideal for a nursery or home office. The property totals c.1,159 sq ft, reflecting an average-sized family footprint with decent plot depth.
Buyers should note the house is a 1930s solid-brick build likely without cavity wall insulation and the exterior shows dated wear; the roof is described with asbestos present and will need specialist assessment or remediation. Double glazing is installed but the fitment date is unknown. Council tax is above average for the area. These factors make the house well suited to buyers willing to carry targeted refurbishment work to modernise fabric and reduce running costs.
For families the location is a key draw: close to Streatham Common and Norbury stations, local schools (several rated Good by Ofsted) and green spaces for daily play and commuting into central London. The chain-free status and practical layout make this a straightforward purchase for those seeking immediate occupation or long-term improvement potential.
