A substantial early-20th-century detached house arranged over four floors, offered chain-free and ready for a growing family. The property provides six bedrooms, three principal reception rooms and a self-contained annexe (converted garage) ideal for dependant relatives or as a rental unit. The lower-ground level includes a large games/utility space and generous storage. Outside there is a mature rear garden, sizeable plot and off-street parking.
The location suits commuters and families: Bromley South station (fast services to London Victoria) is within easy reach, and several highly rated primary and secondary schools are nearby. The principal bedroom benefits from a private balcony and multiple bedrooms have en suite facilities, giving flexibility for multi-generational living or home working.
The house retains period character—bay window, decorative mouldings and high ceilings—yet will reward modernisation. Construction dates and solid brick walls indicate the property likely lacks cavity insulation; buyers should expect energy-efficiency upgrades may be required. Council tax is noted as quite expensive, and parts of the house will benefit from refurbishment to maximise comfort and value.
Practical pros and cons are clear: excellent space, annexe and garden versus likely retrofit work (insulation, kitchen/bathroom updating) and ongoing running costs. This is a strong choice for families seeking long-term space and scope to add value close to transport and schools.
