Summary - 4 TEMPLE AVENUE CROYDON CR0 8QA
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Large three-bedroom family house with garage, garden and strong local schools nearby.
Three double and single bedroom layout, good family proportions
A roomy three-bedroom semi-detached home on Temple Avenue offering generous living space across roughly 1,500 sq ft — ideal for a growing family. The ground floor includes two large reception rooms, a big kitchen with breakfast space and a conservatory that opens onto a well-maintained rear garden. Off-road parking and a substantial garage add practical storage and vehicle space. The house is freehold and sits in a very low-crime, affluent suburban pocket with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
Upstairs there are two large double bedrooms with fitted wardrobes and a smaller third bedroom suited to a child or home office. Local schools (including two Ofsted Outstanding primaries) and several secondary schools are within walking distance, and multiple rail stations serve the wider Croydon area, supporting both school runs and commuting.
Constructed in the 1930s with solid brick walls and double glazing of unknown install date, the property has period character but will benefit from upgrading. The house currently lacks wall insulation (assumed) and may need energy-efficiency improvements, which presents scope for refurbishment to reduce running costs and modernise the interior. There is one bathroom only, which may be a consideration for larger families.
This is a practical family home in a popular Shirley location that combines space, outdoor amenity and convenient transport links. Buyers seeking a ready-to-live-in family base with potential to add value through targeted upgrades will find this property appealing. Note the council tax is higher in this area and some modernisation (insulation, potential bathroom expansion) should be budgeted for.
