Set at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in Purley, this 4-bedroom detached home sits on a large plot and offers genuine scope to create a modern family residence. Built in the 1980s and offered chain free on freehold tenure, the house includes two en-suite bathrooms, an integral garage and multiple reception rooms that lead easily to the rear garden.
The property requires renovation and updating throughout — the living room shows dated finishes and signs of damp by the sliding doors — but the layout is practical for family life: three reception rooms, a functional kitchen, four bedrooms and four bathrooms across multiple storeys. The home has double glazing, a gas boiler with radiators and an EPC rating of C.
Location is a strength: peaceful residential setting close to Purley town centre, with mainline trains to London, good bus links, nearby open spaces at Riddlesdown Common and several well-rated primary and secondary schools within easy reach. Broadband speeds are reported slow, although mobile signal is excellent.
This house will suit buyers seeking a project with immediate family benefit — bring a renovation plan to unlock substantial potential. Be aware of renovation costs, the need to address damp, and relatively high council tax in the London Borough of Croydon (Band G).
