A substantial four-bedroom detached house on a generous plot in SE12, offered for sale by online auction with a six-week completion. The property is vacant freehold and has original mid‑20th century features—spacious rooms, large windows and a period fireplace—providing a good base for a family renovation or an investor refurbishment project.
The site includes large front and rear gardens, an integral garage and off-street parking on a private drive. Local connections are strong: Lee and Kidbrooke rail stations are within easy reach, and the house is close to a range of shops, cafes and several well-regarded schools including Horn Park Primary and Harris Academy Greenwich.
Important considerations: the house requires full modernisation throughout, has only one bathroom for four bedrooms, and the solid-brick walls are likely uninsulated. It will be sold at auction (six weeks completion) and council tax is described as expensive. The area shows indicators of deprivation, which may affect long-term resale expectations.
This home suits buyers prepared to invest in refurbishment to unlock space and value, or developers and investors who can act quickly at auction. For a family seeking scope to create a larger, modern living layout near good schools and transport, the plot and detached form offer clear potential.
