A well-proportioned three-bedroom period semi‑detached house on a desirable residential road, just 0.3 miles from East Croydon station. Arranged over three floors, the house combines original features — bay window, shutters and a feature fireplace — with usable modern spaces including a double reception, a 13'1 kitchen and two bathrooms (one en‑suite). The southerly-facing rear garden is larger than typical for the street, offering a patio and full-size lawn for family use and entertaining.
Practical benefits include mains gas central heating, double glazing (unknown install date) and freehold tenure. The loft has been extended to provide an en‑suite bedroom with a Juliette balcony and eaves storage; there may be scope for further improvement or adaptation subject to planning. The property’s 1,180 sq ft layout and sensible room proportions suit families or buyers seeking convenient commuting links into central London.
Buyers should note material negatives: the EPC rating is E and the original solid brick walls are likely uninsulated, so improving thermal performance will be needed to reduce running costs. The plot frontage is small, parking is on‑street only, and local crime levels are reported as above average. Overall this is a characterful, well-located family home with sensible scope to modernise and improve energy efficiency to add value.
