Set on a generous plot in sought-after Selsdon, this four-bedroom detached house provides a spacious family layout over multiple levels. The accommodation includes an entrance porch and hall, living and dining rooms, kitchen/breakfast room, ground-floor cloakroom, principal bedroom with ensuite, and a separate family bathroom. A multi-purpose sunroom/office opens onto a mature, secluded garden — an attractive private outdoor space for children and entertaining.
Practical strengths include a double garage, side access, off-street parking and double glazing installed after 2002. The property benefits from fast broadband, very low local crime and is close to well-regarded state and independent schools, green spaces such as Selsdon Woods, and regular bus links to Croydon town centre and mainline services.
Buyers should note the house is of late-1970s/early-1980s construction and retains some period fittings and décor that may suit owners seeking to personalise rather than move straight in. Heating is by mains gas warm-air system, and the cavity walls are only partially insulated (assumed), so upgrading insulation or heating could be considered. Council tax is described as quite expensive — factor ongoing running costs into your budget.
Overall the house offers a large family footprint on a substantial plot in an affluent community. It will particularly suit a family wanting space, garden privacy and strong local schools, or a buyer prepared to invest in modernisation to increase value and comfort.
