Summary - 39 INGLEBORO DRIVE PURLEY CR8 1ED
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Bright ready-to-move house minutes from top-rated schools.
Chain-free freehold three-bedroom semi-detached home
This well-presented three-bedroom semi sits on a popular family street in Purley, within a short walk of Riddlesdown station and outstanding schools. The ground floor offers a long 28ft open-plan lounge and dining area that captures light from both ends, plus a modern kitchen and a 24m mature rear garden. Practical extras include Cat6 cabling throughout most rooms, a new boiler (2022), double glazing and a private driveway with an attached garage.
Upstairs provides two full double bedrooms and a smaller third room suitable for a nursery or home office, with fitted wardrobes adding storage. The house is freehold and chain-free, ready to move into, and benefits from fast broadband and low local crime. There is clear scope to extend (planning was granted in 2016 for a double-storey side and rear ground-floor extension), so buyers wanting extra space can pursue a fresh STPP application.
Notable drawbacks are set out plainly: the previously granted planning permission has lapsed, so any extension requires a new submission; there is a single bathroom only; and council tax is above the local average. The property is an average-sized 1007 sq ft home built mid-20th century and will suit buyers who want a ready home with straightforward potential for enlargement rather than an immediate large-scale renovation.
For families seeking good schools, quick rail links to central London and outdoor green space nearby, this semi-balanced mix of ready-to-live comfort and realistic extension potential makes a strong, practical choice.
