Description

This semi-detached house has been thoughtfully extended at the rear and side, now featuring a fourth bedroom and an additional shower room on the ground floor. This setup is ideal for accommodating teenagers, guests, or as a dedicated home office space. The expansive kitchen-dining area overlooks a pleasant garden and adjacent woodlands, providing a serene backdrop. While the home has served as a cherished family residence for many years, it requires modernisation to realise its full potential. There is significant opportunity for further enhancement, including possible first-floor extensions subject to obtaining planning permissions. Benefiting from double glazing and gas central heating, this property is chain-free, making it an appealing option for prospective buyers. Chestnut Grove is located in a desirable residential area close to Littleheath Woods and Coombe Woods, which offers a peaceful environment while remaining convenient for local amenities and transport links to Croydon town centre. With access to several reputable schools in the vicinity, this property presents an excellent renovation investment opportunity.
