Description

This three-bedroom semi-detached house, located on a desirable road in Petts Wood East, presents an excellent opportunity for renovation and investment. Built in the 1930s, this property retains many original character features that could be beautifully restored or modernised to create a contemporary family home. The inviting entrance hall leads to a spacious open-plan sitting and dining room, where you can enjoy natural light from both front and rear windows. A feature brick fireplace adds charm, while French doors provide access to the outdoor patio area. The kitchen is functional but will benefit from modern updates and connects to a brick lean-to that also provides access to the garage and rear garden. Upstairs, you will find three double bedrooms with built-in storage options and a large family bathroom, complemented by a separate WC. The expansive rear garden extends approximately 127ft, predominantly laid to lawn with a patio area ideal for entertaining. There's ample parking available on the crazy paved driveway along with access to the single garage. Situated just a short stroll from Petts Wood village's array of shops, cafes, and restaurants, this property's location is advantageous due to its proximity to public transport links offering direct connections to central London. Given its chain-free status and significant potential for extension (subject to planning permission), this house warrants an internal viewing to fully appreciate how it can be transformed into a wonderful home.
