Chain-free three-bed terrace with sunny rear garden and driveway, ideal for families.
Three bedrooms and two reception rooms, approx. 1,153 sq ft
This mid-20th-century three-bedroom terraced house on Mayfield Road offers a traditional layout and a sunny south-west facing garden, making it a practical family home in Thornton Heath. The property benefits from gas central heating, double glazing (installation date unknown), off-street driveway parking and a comfortable footprint of about 1,153 sq ft. Chain free and freehold, it’s ready for a buyer who wants space and immediate occupation.
Inside are two reception rooms, a generous kitchen and three well-sized bedrooms with a single family bathroom upstairs. The solid brick construction and classic Tudor Revival features give the house character and good bones, while the bay windows and natural light create a welcoming feel. Broadband and mobile signals are strong, and local crime levels are low — practical positives for families.
There is scope to extend subject to planning permission, offering potential to increase living space and value. That potential does require planning certainty and budget for works; the property will suit buyers looking to personalise and improve rather than those wanting a fully modernised move-in-ready home. Note the house likely has solid walls with no built-in insulation (assumed), which may mean additional spending on energy upgrades.
Practical drawbacks: the home has just one bathroom and sits on a relatively small plot, which may limit larger extensions or landscaping. Some updating or renovation is likely if you want contemporary finishes or improved energy efficiency. Nearby schools include several good-rated primaries and an outstanding secondary option, making the location appealing for families with school-age children.
