Large family home with garden, parking and extension potential STPP.
Chain free four-bedroom 1930s detached house
Set back on Sherborne Road, this 1930s detached home blends classic period character with generous living space across approximately 2,029 sq ft. The house offers four double bedrooms, three bathrooms and a large, mainly lawned rear garden of about 100ft — ideal for family life or future extension. A newly fitted boiler (November 2024) and double glazing (post-2002) help with efficiency and comfort.
Off-street parking is provided by a long paved driveway and there is a converted detached garage currently used as two office rooms, offering flexible space for home working or other uses. There is clear scope to extend to the side and rear subject to planning permission (STPP), which will appeal to buyers wanting to increase living space or add value.
The property is offered chain free, located close to Petts Wood village shops, cafes and fast mainline services into London, with several highly rated primary schools nearby — a strong draw for families. Broadband and mobile coverage are good, and the area is affluent with low crime rates.
Buyers should note the house’s age and some external wear consistent with a 1930s build; walls are cavity construction with no added insulation assumed, so further energy improvements may be desirable. Council tax is expensive. Internal updating and refurbishment in parts will likely be required to fully modernise the property.
