Character-filled three-bedroom home with large side and rear garden — scope to modernise.
Thorpe’s Conservation Area location with period Tudor Revival detailing
A handsome 1930s semi-detached home in the Thorpe’s Conservation Area, this three-bedroom property combines original period detail with generous outdoor space. The house spans around 1,300 sq ft and retains features such as wood flooring and traditional fireplaces, giving immediate character and warmth.
The ground floor offers two reception rooms, kitchen, utility and a guest WC, while the first floor has three bedrooms, a bathroom with shower-over-bath and a separate WC. The large rear and side garden is arranged in multiple zones, ideal for children’s play, dining and a vegetable patch — a notable family asset.
Practical considerations: the property sits on solid brick walls with no known cavity insulation (assumed), so upgrading thermal performance could be needed. There is only one full bathroom and crime levels in the area are reported as high; sensible security and a refurbishment budget should be factored in. Heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators, and windows are double glazed (install date unknown).
Positioned for families and commuters, the house is close to Mayow Park, local shops and several well-rated schools. For buyers seeking a character home with scope to modernise and add value, this freehold property offers substantial space and garden potential within a popular Sydenham neighbourhood.
