This recently renovated mid‑century terraced house offers a bright, move‑in ready layout ideal for a first‑time buyer. The ground floor flows openly from a new, high‑spec kitchen into a light living room with large patio doors to a south‑facing garden, creating a pleasant indoor‑outdoor feel. Two genuine double bedrooms upstairs, large built‑in wardrobes and a roomy loft provide uncommon storage for this size of home.
Practical details suit everyday living: freehold tenure, mains gas central heating, double glazing and an EPC and council tax band of C. The property footprint is compact (approx. 852 sq ft) with a small rear garden, so it’s best for buyers seeking manageable outside space rather than a large plot. There is one bathroom and a downstairs WC.
Buyers should note a few material points. The house was built in the late 1960s/early 1970s with system construction, so external wall insulation or upgrade work may be required to improve thermal performance. The area records higher deprivation and average crime levels compared with some neighbouring parts of SE26 — check local services and transport links if these are priorities.
Set in a quiet cul‑de‑sac within walking distance of Wells Park and Crystal Palace Park, the location suits commuters and young families who value green space and independent shops nearby. Overall, this is a compact, well‑presented freehold home with excellent storage, a striking new kitchen and clear appeal for a first‑time buyer or buy‑to‑let investor looking for a low‑maintenance property.
