Description

Tucked away on a serene, tree-lined street in the sought-after Merton Park area, this semi-detached family home presents a solid foundation with substantial renovation and investment potential. The property's layout offers ample room for reconfiguration or extension (subject to planning permission), making it an attractive opportunity for those looking to enhance their living space. Upon entering, you’re greeted by a sunlit front reception room, characterized by a generous bay window that frames views of the front garden. This inviting space flows into a roomy dining area that features patio doors leading directly into the garden, creating an ideal setting for both family gatherings and entertaining. The galley-style kitchen, which is wider than average, also provides access to the outdoor space, allowing for ease of movement and connection between indoor and outdoor living. The upper level boasts three well-sized double bedrooms along with a family bathroom, offering comfortable accommodations while leaving plenty of room for modernization. Outside, the property benefits from a private rear garden complete with an electrified shed and convenient side access. There’s notable potential here to expand outward or upward if desired. Buckleigh Avenue's location is another compelling aspect; both South Merton and Wimbledon Chase stations are within walking distance, providing excellent transport links throughout London. The surrounding town centres—Raynes Park, Wimbledon, and Morden—offer diverse shopping options and local amenities. Additionally, green spaces such as Mostyn Gardens, Cannon Hill Common, and Morden Park are easily accessible for leisure activities. Families will appreciate proximity to well-regarded schools like Rutlish Secondary School and Joseph Hood Primary School. This property not only serves as a spacious home but also represents an exciting opportunity for future enhancement in a desirable South West London neighborhood.
