Perched on the slopes of Round Hill, this tidy three-bedroom semi-detached home offers a bright, modern interior laid out across two storeys. The ground floor’s open living/dining room benefits from high ceilings, large glazed doors and engineered timber floors that open directly onto a low-maintenance rear garden with decking. The principal bedroom occupies the rear ground-floor suite with an en‑suite bathroom and a garden outlook; two further bedrooms and a family bathroom sit on the first floor.
Practical details suit everyday family life: private off-street parking for one car, underfloor heating supplemented by a mains-gas boiler, double glazing and fast broadband/mobile signal. The house is chain free and freehold, making for a straightforward purchase for buyers wanting to move quickly. Local amenities include well-regarded primary and secondary schools, green spaces such as Mayow Park and the Horniman Gardens, plus Forest Hill station within walking distance for fast links into central London.
There are a few material points to note. The plot and rear garden are small-to-average, limiting options for major extension or large outdoor play space. The wider neighbourhood records above-average crime statistics and sits within a local area described as deprived, which may concern some buyers. The property is presented in modern condition but offers scope for modest value-adding improvements (kitchen or bathroom modernisation, landscaping) if desired.
Overall this is a compact, well-lit family home aimed at buyers who value indoor–outdoor flow, convenience and low-maintenance living in a well-connected, community-oriented part of Sydenham. It will suit families or first-time buyers seeking a contemporary, ready-to-live-in house with potential to personalise.
