Summary - Hillcrest Road, CR8 CR8 2JF
3 bed 1 bath Detached Bungalow
Spacious garden plot with strong school links and extension potential.
Chain-free detached bungalow on a large, level plot
Set on a tree-lined road in West Purley, this chain-free detached bungalow occupies a generous, level plot with a rear garden over 27 metres. The single-storey layout offers straightforward living: a large reception and dining room with sliding doors overlooking the garden, a separate kitchen, three good-size bedrooms and a fully tiled bathroom. Driveway parking and a single garage add practicality and storage.
The property is a strong proposition for families seeking a spacious garden and excellent local schools nearby, including several rated Good. Easy rail links provide a direct commute into central London. The site also presents clear extension or redevelopment potential (STPP) on a large plot, appealing to buyers who want to add value or adapt the layout to modern family living.
Condition appears to need some modernization and refurbishment internally to bring finishes up to contemporary standards; the bungalow is habitable but not fully updated. The garage offers conversion potential but any structural or planning changes would require appropriate approvals. Council tax is noted as expensive and there is a single family bathroom which may limit larger households until adapted.
Overall this is a flexible, chain-free family home in a very affluent, low-crime area with excellent connectivity and schooling. Buyers looking for a ready-to-move-in showhome may need to undertake works, while those seeking a project with extension opportunity will find genuine potential.
