Description

This well-proportioned three-bedroom semi-detached home has not been on the market for nearly 30 years, presenting a rare opportunity for those looking to invest in a property with considerable renovation potential. The layout includes a bright reception room that offers a welcoming space for family gatherings, alongside three bedrooms and a family bathroom that provide the fundamental comforts of home. The kitchen, connected to a generously sized rear garden, holds promise for updates that could enhance both functionality and appeal. Recent upgrades include a newly installed boiler and double-glazed windows throughout, contributing to overall comfort and energy efficiency. While these enhancements have laid a solid foundation, the home invites further modernization to truly unlock its potential. There is also ample opportunity for expansion; possibilities exist to extend at the rear, side, or even up into the loft (subject to planning permission), allowing buyers to craft a living space tailored precisely to their needs. Located in a sought-after area of Catford, this property benefits from close proximity to local amenities, reputable schools, and efficient transport links. Additionally, nearby green spaces offer recreational options for families. This home is ideal for those eager to infuse their personal touch while simultaneously increasing its value through thoughtful renovations.
