Characterful cottage with garden and extension potential STPP, close to parks and schools.
Two double bedrooms in a Victorian mid-terrace cottage
This Victorian mid-terrace cottage offers two double bedrooms and 813 sq ft of traditional living space, ideal for a growing family seeking character close to parks and schools. The house retains period features such as a bay-windowed living room, high ceilings and original fireplace, and benefits from a secluded 30 ft rear garden — rare for the road.
Practical strengths include freehold tenure, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, double glazing, and clear extension potential subject to planning (STPP) for those wanting to increase living space. Local amenities are strong: easy access to Tivoli and Norwood parks, independent cafés, Picture House cinema, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
Notable drawbacks are the EPC rating of E and solid brick walls with no known insulation, so energy efficiency improvement work is likely required. The property has a single bathroom and sits on a small plot; it may suit buyers prepared to modernise. The surrounding area shows pockets of deprivation and average crime levels—buyers should consider local conditions alongside the convenience of transport links and schools.
