Set on a desirable tree-lined road in West Wickham, this 1930s semi-detached home offers significant scope for renovation and extension (STPP). The property is chain free, freehold and presented to cash buyers only — a straightforward purchase for those able to fund a full refurbishment. The wide plot includes an impressive rear garden of over 100ft and a driveway with integral garage. The garage has internal access and potential for conversion to additional living space subject to consent.
Inside, accommodation is traditional in layout with two reception rooms, a dated kitchen/dining area, a ground-floor WC and three upstairs bedrooms. The family bathroom plus separate upstairs WC provides flexibility, but the house requires a complete modernisation throughout — including kitchen, bathroom and likely services and insulation upgrades (solid brick walls assumed uninsulated). Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators and windows are double glazed (installation date unknown).
The location is a strong selling point for families and commuters: about 0.4 miles to West Wickham station, well-regarded local schools within easy reach, and local shops, parks and amenities nearby. Practical negatives to note are the need for full renovation, cash-only requirement, and an expensive Council Tax band. For buyers seeking to create a long-term family home or an investment after refurbishment, the large plot and period features provide clear potential.
