Grange Park Road, Thornton Heath, CR7

Offered chain-free is this four-bedroom Victorian semi-detached family home, spanning three floors and almost 1300ft2. Combining generous room proportions with period features and practical modern updates, it has scope to extend at the rear and offers exceptional value, in a location convenient for transport and schools.

The ground floor layout works particularly well, with the dual reception rooms creating a natural flow between living and dining spaces. The front has a bright east facing aspect, and upgraded double glazed sash windows, which are incredibly insulative and retain the period charm of sashes. The front room serves as a comfortable living area, while the rear section transitions into a dedicated dining space that can accommodate a proper dining table.

Adjacent to the dining space, at the back of the house, is the kitchen, which is arranged in a practical L-shape with plenty of storage and counter space, there’s a gas cooker which is a notable feature for those who enjoy cooking and the neutral-tone kitchen units make for a modern feeling space. The kitchen gives access to the garden, which has a west facing aspect, making it wonderfully bright from the afternoon into the evening. As mentioned, it is possible to extend the house at the rear, bringing the kitchen over to the full width of the house, which would add tremendous value.

Upstairs, the first floor comprises two good-sized bedrooms and the family bathroom. The room at the front benefits from an eastern aspect, giving it fabulous light in the morning. The bathroom is well-maintained with tiled walls and includes both a bath and overhead shower. The top floor houses two more double bedrooms, both offering good proportions and plenty of natural light. The house's layout across three floors creates natural separation between spaces, which works especially well for families or those needing dedicated work areas, or those that have guests over frequently.

Moving outside, the garden has a west facing aspect and is approx 60ft long, there is a patio directly off the house, which could be extended over (STPP of course!) and there’s a lot of space to install an outdoor studio/wfh space if needed without compromising the size of the garden at all.
