This recently renovated mid-terrace offers two double bedrooms, two reception rooms and a modern kitchen and bathroom — ready to move into. The home benefits from double glazing, gas central heating and bright front aspect natural light, making it well suited to first-time buyers seeking a low-immediate-work purchase close to transport links.
Location is a strong selling point: Thornton Heath station is within walking distance and Croydon University Hospital is nearby, with local shops, cafés and several good schools close to hand. Broadband and mobile signal are reported as excellent, supporting home working and connectivity.
The property listing highlights a large rear garden and scope to extend subject to planning permission, offering potential to increase living space or add value. Buyer's attention is drawn to local context: the area has above-average crime rates and a generally deprived local profile, which may influence long-term resale and rental appeal.
Practical notes: the listing gives an EPC rating of D and council tax band C. The house is freehold and was built circa 1930–1949 with solid brick walls (no known insulation). The plot is recorded as small despite the advertised large garden; prospective buyers should verify garden size, permitted development and any planning constraints before committing.
