This 1930s terraced home on a quiet, tree-lined side road in the Brooklyn/Country Park area offers genuine family appeal and clear scope to modernise. With three bedrooms, two reception rooms and generous natural light, the layout suits growing families seeking proximity to parks and good local schools. Norwood Junction BR/Overground, nearby bus routes and the tram provide straightforward links into central London.
The house is offered chain free and freehold, having been in the same family for nearly 50 years — a rare provenance that reflects long-term care but also explains the need for updating. The property currently requires renovation: the EPC is F, and marketing information states there is no central heating, so heating and energy performance are likely priorities for any buyer.
Practical points to note: internal updates will be needed to bring the home up to modern standards, and solid brick walls are presumed uninsulated. Some security work (four 1m helibars between first-floor window and front door) has been recorded on file. These factors, together with a modest footprint and average room count, make the house well suited to buyers looking for a renovation project, an owner-occupier wanting to personalise a family home, or an investor able to add value.
Viewings are recommended for anyone wanting a centrally located family house with park access and strong transport links. Buyers should arrange their own survey and checks — the property is sold by order of Power of Attorney and marketing information should be independently verified.
