Description

This charming semi-detached home, first occupied in 1926, presents a unique opportunity for buyers seeking a property with character and potential. Located on a desirable avenue in Coulsdon, this double-fronted residence boasts an elevated position, complete with its own driveway and detached garage. The home has been cherished by just five owners over the past century, reflecting a rich history and genuine original features alongside some modern updates. The spacious accommodation includes four bedrooms, two reception rooms, and a kitchen/breakfast room, all of which are currently liveable but would benefit from updating to align with contemporary lifestyles. There's ample scope to reconfigure and modernise the layout while preserving the unique charm that defines this property. The generous plot also offers exciting potential for extensions, subject to the usual planning permissions. Outside, the property features a lovely garden complemented by a small shed, greenhouse, and pond, enhancing the outdoor space. This is not just another 1920s semi; it stands as an individual home on a prestigious avenue, surrounded by other distinctive properties. For those looking for a project that combines character, space, and potential, this is a fantastic opportunity to become the sixth owner of this beloved home.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

56out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: LOW

Desmond House has the makings of a distinctive renovation project: a double-fronted 1926 semi with four bedrooms, two reception rooms, generous proportions and original character to work with. The photographed rooms are liveable but dated, giving a clear scope to refresh the kitchen and bathroom, update carpets and finishes, and improve the overgrown front approach. The rear garden, greenhouse, driveway and detached garage add to the appeal, while the generous plot is described as having extension potential subject to planning and consent.

At £750,000, the score is a cautious 56/100 (D). The floor area is missing, so value against local £/sqf cannot yet be judged; the £40,000–£80,000 renovation range indicates a medium-scale project, but the available figures do not establish the eventual value uplift.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the dated kitchen and bathroom while retaining the home's period character.
  • Update carpets and decoration across the photographed reception rooms and bedrooms.
  • Make better use of the generous plot, including improving the planted front approach and exploring extension potential subject to planning and consent.
