Large plot with garage, lap pool and excellent local schools — renovate to personalise..
Over 2,800 sq ft of flexible family living space
Set on a very large plot in West Purley, this substantial four-bedroom freehold home offers more than 2,800 sq ft of living space and strong family potential. The house includes three reception rooms, a fitted kitchen with utility, cellar/storage, and an unusually large double-length, double-width garage with private in-and-out driveway. A sunken lap pool and mature rear garden give the property clear scope for summer entertaining and outside living.
The property requires renovation throughout — cosmetic updating and likely modernisation of services are needed — which presents an opportunity to reconfigure spaces or extend subject to consent. Internal features include generous bedroom sizes, built-in storage, chimney features and period character in need of sympathetic updating. Broadband speeds are slow, and council tax is described as very expensive.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, ample parking, excellent mobile signal and easy access to several well-rated local schools. Notable outbuildings: detached outbuilding with power, water, shower and WC, plus a pool pump house. Buyers should budget for renovation costs, possible heating and wiring updates, and pool maintenance.
This home suits a family seeking space and scope to personalise a handsome period-style house, or an investor willing to renovate to add value. The setting is suburban and private on a leafy road, with local amenities and transport links nearby.
