Description

Nestled on Frant Road, this three-bedroom house in Thornton Heath presents a noteworthy opportunity for those interested in renovation and investment. The property is being offered as a refurbishment project, complete with existing planning permission to transform it into two self-contained apartments: one offering one bedroom and the other featuring three bedrooms. This setup provides an attractive option for developers or investors looking to capitalize on the area's growing demand for diverse housing. The interior of the house requires full modernization, which allows for a personalized touch while implementing the approved plans or considering alternative configurations (subject to necessary approvals). The structural integrity of the property serves as a solid foundation for any imaginative redesign. Once renovations are completed, the potential exists for favorable returns from either resale or rental, particularly given the local appetite for both one-bedroom units and larger family residences. In terms of location, this property benefits from proximity to various amenities along Brigstock and London Road, including supermarkets, cafes, and essential services. Nearby parks such as Grangewood Park and Thornton Heath Recreation Ground provide green space for relaxation and recreation, while additional community features like Crystal Palace’s Triangle, Thornton Heath Leisure Centre, and Croydon University Hospital enhance neighborhood appeal. Transportation options are robust with Thornton Heath Station nearby, offering direct rail connections to central London via Southern services. Multiple bus routes service the area as well, linking residents to Croydon, Norwood Junction, and beyond. For those who rely on road access, the A23 ensures quick routes to Croydon, Streatham, as well as easy connections to the M23/M25 corridors leading towards Gatwick Airport. Planning documentation—including approved designs—is available upon request. Prospective buyers should conduct due diligence regarding planning consent status and compliance with building regulations prior to finalizing any transactions. Overall, this property stands out as a unique opportunity in Thornton Heath for those looking to invest in redevelopment or modernize a dwelling while benefitting from its advantageous location.
