This substantial four-level detached home on London Road provides generous living space for a large family or buyers seeking a conversion/investment project. With six bedrooms across approximately 3,408 sq ft and a decent private garden, the house delivers scale, flexible room layouts and bright, airy rooms framed by period features.
The property has clear strengths: strong transport links to West Croydon and Thornton Heath, proximity to Croydon University Hospital and several well-regarded schools, plus useful outbuildings and an unusual WWII air-raid shelter in the garden. The layout includes useful lower-ground utility and storage areas that help keep main living floors uncluttered.
Important practical points are straightforward. The home dates from the 1930–1949 period, has solid brick walls likely without insulation, and a mid-20th-century kitchen that needs modernisation. Only one bathroom is recorded in the property data — buyers should verify the actual bathroom count. Double glazing is present but install date is unknown. Council tax is described as quite expensive.
Location factors matter: the surrounding area is marked as very deprived with higher local crime rates, which will be a material consideration for families and some investors. Broadband speeds are average, mobile signal is excellent. The property is freehold; any change of use or subdivision would be subject to planning permissions and checks. Prospective purchasers are recommended to commission full surveys and verify services before exchange.
