Description

This three-bedroom bay-fronted end terrace presents a unique opportunity for those looking to invest in a property with significant renovation potential. While the interior currently requires cosmetic updates, it offers a solid foundation that can be transformed into a comfortable family home. The living space includes a spacious bay-fronted living room and a separate dining area, both of which could benefit from modern updates. The galley kitchen is functional but is ripe for enhancement, allowing you to create your ideal culinary space. At the back of the house, you’ll find a contemporary bathroom featuring a P-shaped bath with an overhead shower – simply refreshing the grout could elevate its appeal. Upstairs, the layout consists of two generous double bedrooms and an additional single room at the rear. This third bedroom is conveniently accessed through one of the doubles, making it suitable as a home office or nursery; however, there is potential to reconfigure this space to allow for three independent bedrooms. One of the standout features of this property is its expansive 150-foot garden that gently slopes toward Riddlesdown Common. This outdoor space presents ample opportunities for landscaping enthusiasts or those wanting to create family-friendly areas for play and relaxation. Although there isn't direct access to the Common from the garden, it's just a short five-minute walk to the nearby walking paths, ideal for weekend strolls or dog walks. The property benefits from its proximity to public transport links; both Whyteleafe and Kenley stations are within walking distance, providing connections to London Bridge in about 50 minutes. Upper Warlingham station on the Oxted line is slightly farther but offers quicker journeys into Victoria, taking roughly half an hour. Local amenities include shops and eateries near the station, including a Little Waitrose for everyday conveniences. For families or those planning ahead, Kenley Primary School is conveniently located less than ten minutes away on foot. In summary, while this home may need some work before reaching its full potential, it stands as an excellent project opportunity that could result in a beautiful first family residence or investment property with desirable characteristics in a good location.
