A substantial five-bedroom Victorian semi-detached house offering bright, spacious rooms across three floors and a large private garden. The property retains period features — bay windows, high ceilings and solid brickwork — giving a strong base for restoration and reconfiguration to modern family living. Its generous footprint (approx. 2,151 sq ft) includes two receptions, a conservatory, a large eat-in kitchen and off-street parking, making it well suited to growing families or buyers seeking a sizeable renovation project.
The location is a major selling point: moments from Beckenham Junction, Clock House and Tramlink connections, with easy access to local shops, buses and highly regarded schools nearby (several rated Good or Outstanding). Commuter-friendly links to Croydon and Wimbledon support daily travel while local amenities and green spaces enhance family life.
The house requires a full programme of modernisation: the kitchen and bathrooms are dated, internal upgrading and insulation are needed (solid brick walls currently assumed uninsulated), and secondary glazing is fitted rather than full double glazing. There is also a medium flood risk and the local crime level is high for the area; these are practical considerations for buyers and may affect insurance and renovation costs. Council tax is moderate and the tenure is freehold.
For buyers who value period character and space, this property presents strong long-term potential after refurbishment: remodel the layout, improve energy efficiency and update services to create a comfortable, contemporary family home in a convenient Beckenham location.
