Summary - 31, KINGSWOOD WAY, SOUTH CROYDON CR2 8QL
6 bed 7 bath Detached
Expansive plot with separate annex and high-spec finishes.
Almost 6,000 sq ft across three storeys and attic
A substantial neoclassical-style family home offering almost 6,000 sq ft of flexible living across three storeys, with a self-contained annex ideal for guests, extended family or rental income. The current owners virtually rebuilt the house eleven years ago to a high standard: expect a bright galleried entrance with a dramatic vaulted ceiling, a 43'4" open-plan living space and a high-quality German kitchen with granite and quartz surfaces.
The property sits on a very large, secluded plot with mature boundaries and a sweeping block-paved driveway leading to an integral garage. Ground-floor comfort is boosted by underfloor heating throughout; upstairs, the principal suite occupies the whole top floor with a dressing room and en suite. With seven bath/shower rooms and multiple reception rooms there is scope for formal family living, home working, and independent annex use.
Practical points to note: the house is on an unadopted road (shared maintenance responsibility), and several trees are protected by Tree Preservation Orders. Broadband speed is reported as slow locally and council tax is relatively high. While the property benefits from recent replacement windows and modern services, some wall insulation detail is assumed rather than confirmed; buyers should verify certificates and installation records as needed.
This home will suit large or multigenerational families wanting space and privacy on the edge of open countryside, with excellent local schools and easy access to neighbourhood shops and nature reserves. The property’s scale, presentation and annex give clear potential for long-term family living or part-rent income, balanced by the ongoing responsibilities of an unadopted road and mature grounds.
