This newly refurbished Edwardian semi-detached house spans over 2,000 sqft and balances period character with contemporary living. Five bedrooms and three bathrooms suit a larger family or those needing flexible home office space, with two reception rooms and a modern kitchen/diner providing practical daily living and entertaining space. Chain free sale and off-street parking add convenience.
The level rear garden and large plot offer outdoor space for children and pets, plus scope for further landscaping or extension (subject to planning). Practical features include mains gas heating with boiler and radiators and double glazing already installed, contributing to comfortable year-round living.
Buyers should note factual drawbacks: the property has an EPC rating of D, double glazing predates 2002, and external walls are solid brick with no assumed cavity insulation. There is a medium flood risk in the area and local crime statistics are very high; purchasers should factor appropriate security and insurance costs. Despite the attractive finish, older property elements may require ongoing maintenance given the 1900–1929 construction era.
Located within walking distance of Purley train station, local shops and several well-regarded schools, this home suits families seeking space and commuter convenience who are comfortable addressing some period-property trade-offs.
