A substantial five-bedroom detached house offering more than 3,200 sq ft of flexible family living in a quiet, tree-lined cul-de-sac. The layout includes five reception rooms, separate utility and laundry rooms, and a pair of reception spaces at the rear — one with an en-suite that could serve as an independent annexe or a home-business suite. Solar panels and a large double garage complement a long private driveway with ample off-street parking.
Positioned within the Riddlesdown Collegiate catchment and adjacent to Purley Downs Golf Course, the location suits families who value good schools, green space and straightforward commuting. Riddlesdown and Purley stations are both close, with fast links into central London. The large, landscaped rear garden and extensive patio provide easy family entertaining and child-friendly outdoor space.
Practical considerations: the house dates from the 1930s–40s, has double glazing (unknown installation date), cavity walls assumed uninsulated, an EPC grade D and sits in Council Tax Band G — running costs may be higher than newer stock. The generous footprint and multiple reception rooms give clear scope for modernisation, energy efficiency improvements and adaptation to changing household needs.
Overall this is a rare, roomy family property with strong school catchment, good transport links and scope to add value through targeted refurbishment and insulation upgrades. Early viewing is recommended to appreciate the size, layout and position on the avenue.
