A bright, mid‑century two-bedroom terraced house offering a large rear garden, garage en‑bloc and off‑street parking — a practical and affordable entry into Purley. The lounge is light and airy, the kitchen is separate, and both double bedrooms provide comfortable sleeping space. A recently fitted boiler reduces immediate heating concerns.
Set within easy walking distance of Purley station and town centre, this home suits first-time buyers who value commuter convenience and local schools. The property’s 1960s construction and timber-frame walls give scope for cosmetic updating and potential layout improvements to increase living space or resale value.
Important considerations: the plot is small, the area records very high crime levels, and the property sits in a medium flood‑risk zone — factors that will affect insurance and security costs. Insulation is partial and the glazing install date is unknown, so further energy upgrades may be needed. The single bathroom and 700 sq ft layout reflect an average overall size.
Overall, this is a sensible starter home with good commuter links and a generous garden — best for buyers willing to invest modestly in security and energy improvements to realise its full potential.
