A versatile mid‑20th century detached home in Surbiton, positioned about half a mile from the town centre and mainline station. The house currently offers a flexible layout (three/four bedrooms) with a contemporary kitchen/dining area and two reception rooms — suitable as a family house or a ready‑to‑let investment.
The plot is small and garden space is modest, which keeps maintenance low. Off‑street parking is included — a valuable convenience in this urban location. There is scope to extend subject to planning permission (STPP), offering potential to increase living space or rental value.
Buyers should note the property is compact at around 881 sq ft and was constructed in the 1950s–60s, with solid-brick walls and assumed limited cavity insulation. Council Tax Band F makes running costs higher than average. The house will suit purchasers seeking a convenient, well‑located home or investors prepared to refurbish and optimise the layout.
No onward chain speeds up the transaction but any improvements, insulation upgrades or extension works will need planning and budget. The property’s proximity to good schools, shops and fast rail links to London is a strong practical draw for families and commuters.
