A two-bedroom period maisonette on Grange Park Road offering clear renovation potential and classic Victorian features. The property is chain free with a long lease (117 years remaining) and comes with a private rear garden — a rare find for this price band in Thornton Heath. High ceilings and original brickwork give scope to create a bright, characterful home.
The layout includes a generous living room, separate kitchen, two well-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom across multiple storeys. The home requires modernisation: cosmetic updates, floor and fixture replacement and likely insulation improvements for the solid brick walls. Double glazing is present but the installation date is unknown, and the heating runs from a mains-gas boiler with radiators.
Location is a strong asset. The property sits moments from Grangewood Park and close to Thornton Heath High Street and station, providing fast links into Central London. Local amenities are abundant and several well-rated primary and secondary schools are within easy reach, making this suitable for first-time buyers seeking a project or buy-to-let investors targeting rental demand.
Be mindful of local context: the wider area has higher-than-average crime and levels of deprivation, and the plot is small. These are important factors if you plan major external works or are sensitive to resale value. For buyers willing to invest in renovation, this is a competitively priced period property with good transport, outdoor space and scope to increase value.
