This stunningly modernised, end-of-terrace, three-bed home was
built in the early 1910s. It retains some amazing character
details, like the original front door, original stained glass,
original stair spindles, and even some of the original
neighbours.
Thornton Heath station and ‘The Big Tesco’ are just a 10-minute
walk away (7 minutes if you walk to the beat of ‘Staying Alive’ by
the Bee Gees). Southern Rail can get you from Thornton Heath to
Victoria or London Bridge in approximately 30 minutes. There is
also a great corner shop at the top of the road for last-minute
items, and the local pub has £4.50 pints.
The house features engineered wood floors throughout the
downstairs and a carpeted landing and bedrooms. For those chilly
months, the bathroom boasts underfloor heated tiles, with windows
that are double-glazed throughout. For the annual 3 days of summer,
opening the front windows and back door creates a wonderful breeze
through the home.
There are two double bedrooms (which can easily house a
king-sized bed) and a single bedroom that is also perfect as an
office. The utility room is located behind a secret bookcase door
and houses the washer and dryer and additional storage.
The southeast-facing garden was built for entertaining and
designed to be low-maintenance. Six raised planters with
high-quality soil provide ample opportunity for green-thumbed
individuals to grow something exotic or those less inclined to drop
in something colourful and call it a day. The shed at the back also
spans the width of the garden and provides fantastic storage and
workspace.
All of the living spaces are on the end-of-terrace side of the
house, so there is no sound from the friendly neighbours. The
expansive loft has fully boarded floors, providing immense storage
space, and has the potential to be converted into a fourth
bedroom.
The house is also within walking distance of Selhurst Park
football stadium, great local schools, and a 10-15 minute bus to
the Crystal Palace Triangle, West Croydon Shopping Centre, and Box
Park. The road itself is tree-lined and bends in a unique ‘U’
shape. This means that cars only drive down the road if they live
here or are making deliveries, resulting in a quiet and peaceful
oasis in the otherwise bustling metropolis of Thornton Heath.
