Summary - 39 CONGO ROAD LONDON SE18 1TF
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Spacious two-bedroom Victorian terrace with period features and no onward chain.
Bay-fronted Victorian mid-terrace with period cast-iron fireplaces
A larger-style Victorian mid-terrace offering two double bedrooms and flexible living across several levels. The bay-fronted façade and original cast-iron fireplaces give the house authentic period character, while stripped floorboards and high ceilings create bright, airy rooms. At approximately 933 sq ft the layout includes a roomy bathroom, lounge, dining room and a compact rear garden.
The property is offered with vacant possession and no onward chain, making it suitable for a buyer seeking a quick purchase. Practical features include double glazing (installed post-2002), mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, and good digital connectivity (excellent mobile signal, fast broadband). Transport links are strong, with easy access to Woolwich and onward travel by Elizabeth Line, DLR and Overground.
There is scope to add value through targeted improvement work. The solid brick walls are likely uninsulated (as-built) and the energy rating is D; insulating and upgrading services could reduce running costs and improve comfort. The garden is small and the plot compact, so exterior expansion options are limited.
The local area is classified as deprived with an ethnically diverse community and average crime levels; schooling nearby includes several primary schools rated Good and mixed-rated secondary options. This house will suit a first-time buyer or couple wanting a character home near strong transport links who are comfortable completing modest modernisation works.
