Description

This semi-detached house presents a compelling opportunity for those looking to invest in a property with significant renovation potential. Offering two double bedrooms, with the possibility of creating a third by reconfiguring the existing layout (subject to necessary permissions), this residence is primed for modernization and personalization. The home features an entrance hallway leading to a spacious through lounge and dining area, complemented by a generously sized kitchen that opens up various design possibilities. The first floor accommodates a large main bedroom measuring 15'9" x 9'10", alongside another double bedroom complete with an inbuilt airing cupboard for added convenience. A separate bathroom and W.C. add to the functional layout, but updates could greatly enhance both aesthetics and efficiency. Externally, the property benefits from gardens at the front, side, and rear, with the front garden notably wider than average. Off-street parking is an advantage in this area, providing added value and accessibility. Located in Beckenham, this home is nestled within a vibrant community featuring diverse shopping options, restaurants catering to various tastes, and numerous coffee shops ideal for social gatherings or business meetings. The neighborhood is well-known for its parks—Kelsey Park’s scenic landscapes are just around the corner, while Beckenham Place Park offers extensive walking paths amidst wooded areas and beautiful gardens. While the property would benefit from improvements such as double glazing and central heating, its location near Kent House, Clock House, and Birkbeck train stations ensures quick access to central London services including Victoria, Cannon Street, London Bridge, and Charing Cross. The nearby Avenue Road tram stop further connects residents to Croydon and Wimbledon. This property is being sold via Modern Method of Auction which introduces specific terms for interested buyers. It is essential to consider all aspects carefully before proceeding with an offer. With thoughtful renovations, this house has the potential to transform into a comfortable family home or an attractive rental investment in a desirable location.
