***Vendor‘s comments:*** "e;We initially bought the
house as our first home and could immediately see its potential:
good-sized rooms, side access, an inviting garden and plenty of
space to extend into the loft. The property‘s location was also
very appealing, being a circa 12-minute walk from not only East
Croydon but also West Croydon and Selhurst stations.
The house required a lot of attention when we first bought it
and we completed the initial renovation in 2020. We then added the
extra loft room and second bathroom in 2023 which has completely
transformed the feel of the house; particularly with the skylight
in the loft landing which brings in a lot of light.
We use the loft as a bedroomnursery for our 3-year-old and also
as an office. The architect’s original plan was for 2 bedrooms but
we opted for 1 large one. The Juliet balcony means that we have
some excellent views of Croydon’s skyline and it is lovely to be
able to open the French windows on a sunny day.
We will miss the convenience of the house’s location. We both
commute into Blackfriars and we can be in the office in less than
40 minutes from leaving the front door. Our son travels to his work
near Victoria and his commute is even shorter. Equally, the
shopping amenities, such as Marks and Spencer, in central Croydon
are within walking distance and we also have a local Lidl which we
use regularly. Our daughter currently attends the excellent
nursery on the corner of Sydenham Road which is just a 5-minute
walk from us.
We will also miss the quiet of the road and our neighbours.
Although the surrounding area is urban, the road itself is
noticeably quiet, something on which families who live in the
countryside frequently comment. We know most of our neighbours in
the road, many of whom have small children like ourselves and we
know it will be unlikely that we have such a friendly mix of people
in our next street.
We have now decided to move because our family of four and
frequent family visitors mean that we require more
space."e;
