Property Description



A very characterful pre-Costains late 1920s/ early 1930s house extended in the past to the side and rear with a fantastic open plan kitchen diner/breakfast room/utility room which, with a little imagination, could be transformed into something very modern and would benefit from new exterior doors with an uninterrupted view of the garden which is all on the level with the house and the road. Gas fired central heating throughout and double glazing throughout apart from back door and kitchen windows.

A double garage currently occupies the garden and once removed will make the space even bigger. The period features include higher than average ceilings. The integral garage is a full length one and the position of the plumbing would enable it to be converted into a separate shower/wc/utility area with an additional study or bedroom as there is enough space within the garage to integrate it in that way, subject to the usual consents.

Upstairs there are 3 double bedrooms and a large single and a family bathroom comprising bath, shower cubicle, basin and w/c. Two doors along there is a rear dormer extension so there is similar potential to make use of the roof space at this property, possibly making the rear double bedroom behind the bathroom part of a turnaround. Outside the garden is approximately 70 x 40 ft and there is off street parking for 2-3 cars.

A pre Costains late 1920s early/1930s extended 4 bedroom family house on a level walk to all the amenities offered by the vibrant village of Selsdon. There is an Osteopath GPs surgery and dental practice all within a 2 minute walk. Within view of the main entrance of the historic Selsdon Park Hotel (Devere) once home to the Bishops of Rochester with its private sports facilities, swimming pool, popular restaurant and brasserie, and golf course. Next door is Croydon High GDST and a large Sainsburys with underground parking. Selsdon has a well stocked parade of shops with a Costa, popular takeaways, restaurants, and a Wetherspoons. After a Sunday morning coffee one could walk to the National Trust Bird Sanctuary, ideal for children or dog walking. The

Selsdon Recreation ground is within walking distance with parking, childrens play area and basketball/tennis courts and the blue 409 and 357 bus takes you into open countryside via the Farley Golf Course and popular Harrow Inn Gastro pub in less than 5 minutes. In the other direction the 412 bus goes from St Johns Church next door to central Croydon in about 15 minutes via Whitgift Boys school. East Croydon station is central and from there it only takes 15 minutes to get to central London or 50 minutes to the South Coast. Selsdon also has a tram service to central Croydon. Some other noteable schools in the area are Greenvale Primary, Royal Russell and Selsdon Primary to name just a few. For someone who is less mobile this location is ideal or for someone who does not want to be reliant on a car.

A dormer extension two doors along shows the potential for the roof void.

The double length garage could be nicely integrated where it meets the hallway and kitchen where there is currently a drop down from the kitchen through a side door into the garage. The original dining area, which has been opened up, still has a fireplace and surround. Rear windows overlook the garden.

Open plan kitchen

Offering a tremendous amount of space for all manner of appliances and food preparation surfaces and would work well with as a open plan kitchen family room or as a kitchen on its own. Back door leading to garden.
