Description

This Victorian end-of-terrace house presents a unique opportunity for those looking to invest in a property with significant renovation potential. With three spacious double bedrooms and two to three reception areas, the home offers generous living space, making it ideal for families or investors seeking to maximize rental income. The interior is characterized by classic features, including high ceilings and large windows that fill the rooms with natural light. Although the property requires modernisation throughout, this presents an exciting canvas for creative updates that can enhance both its aesthetic appeal and value. The layout includes a lounge, a versatile room that can serve as a fourth bedroom or additional reception space, and a dining area leading into the kitchen. The kitchen is functional as-is but could benefit from an update to suit contemporary tastes. Two bathrooms provide convenience for family living or guest accommodation, while the lean-to offers extra storage or the potential for further development. Outside, the rear garden is primarily laid to lawn with shrub borders and provides ample space for landscaping projects or outdoor entertaining. There’s also off-street parking available at the front of the home. Located within walking distance of Sydenham and Lower Sydenham stations, commuting into central London is straightforward. Nearby amenities include Bell Green shopping centre and access to green spaces like Mayow Park and Alexandra Recreation Ground, which enhance the area’s attractiveness for residents. This property comes with no onward chain, allowing for a smoother transition for any buyer ready to embark on their renovation journey. With its prime location and flexible layout, there is substantial scope to add value through thoughtful updates and improvements.
