A spacious three-bedroom detached house on a large rear plot in Purley, offered freehold and ready for someone to modernise and personalise. The property retains a generous through lounge, separate kitchen, downstairs WC and a long rear garden with wrap-around access to a single garage — ideal for families seeking outside space or buyers planning an extension (STPP).
The house requires full modernisation throughout: cosmetic upgrades, updating of services and likely insulating work to cavity walls. The single bathroom, dated fixtures, and evidence of general wear mean the property is best suited to buyers prepared to invest time and money to bring it up to modern standards.
Positioned within walking distance of well-rated primary and secondary schools, and served by local bus links, the location suits commuting families. The plot size and layout provide clear scope to increase living space or value, subject to planning, while freehold tenure and fast broadband add practical benefits.
Note factual limitations: council tax is above average for the area, the garage is narrow, and the property dates from the 1950s–1960s with assumed uninsulated cavity walls. These points should be considered when budgeting renovation costs, but they do not detract from the overall long-term potential of the home.
