Summary - 51A, CROFTON ROAD SE5 8LY
4 bed 1 bath Terraced
Spacious Victorian terrace with huge potential, chain free in sought-after Camberwell.
Over 1,600 sq ft across three floors, four double bedrooms
Set across three floors and offering over 1,600 sq ft, this substantial Victorian terraced house on Crofton Road is a rare, chain-free find in SE5. The property retains period proportions—high ceilings, large bay windows and a generous double reception—providing an excellent canvas to create a spacious family home. All four bedrooms are genuine doubles, and there is a cellar for storage plus a private rear garden.
The house requires full modernisation and presents scope for sensitive redevelopment or reconfiguration to add contemporary living space. Key practical points include a single family bathroom, solid brick walls likely lacking insulation, double glazing of unknown age, and a mains gas boiler with radiators. EPC rating E and Council Tax Band E reflect the current condition.
Location is a strong asset: tree-lined Crofton Road sits between Bellenden Road and Camberwell local amenities, with fast connections from Peckham Rye and Denmark Hill stations into central London. Nearby good and independent schools, parks and local cafés add family appeal. Be aware the area records above-average crime statistics and the rear plot is small, so outdoor space is modest.
This home suits buyers seeking a characterful long-term family residence or an investor/developer able to deliver renovation and value uplift. The property’s size, layout and position in a sought-after neighbourhood give clear potential once updated.
