This spacious 1930s detached home has been considerably refurbished and offered chain free, making it move-in ready for a growing family. The layout spreads over approximately 2,000 sq ft and retains period character such as fireplaces and leaded windows alongside modern upgrades including a refitted family bathroom, new herringbone hardwood flooring and brand‑new carpets throughout.
Ground floor living is generous with two double-aspect reception rooms, a modern kitchen/breakfast room and a welcoming entrance hall. The large rear garden is a key feature: an Indian sandstone patio, expansive lawn, summerhouse and a powered office room ideal for home working. Driveway parking sits behind remote-controlled electric gates with an in/out drive, garage and adjoining carport.
Upstairs offers a principal bedroom with a double-aspect dressing room (suitable as a fifth bedroom or home office) plus three further doubles. Buyers should note there is one main family bathroom and no en suite, which may require planning if more bathrooms are needed. Council Tax Band G means running costs are relatively high.
Location benefits include easy walking distance to Purley Oaks and Sanderstead stations (good services into central Croydon and London), excellent local schools and nearby green spaces such as Croham Hurst and Purley Beeches. Overall this home suits families seeking period charm, ample outside space and immediate occupancy, while those needing multiple bathrooms or lower council tax should factor that in.
