Description

If you are looking for a family home to put your own stamp on without having the expense and hassle of extension works, then look no further than this property. Offered chain free, this 1930s terraced house has already benefited from a loft conversion, providing a fourth bedroom with an en suite toilet, which could be remodelled to incorporate a shower room if required. The ground floor has been enlarged by way of a full-width rear extension, creating a large kitchen/breakfast room/diner together with an extended rear reception room. Whilst any prospective purchaser may wish to update the property to suit their own tastes, and in general the house would benefit from modernisation and redecoration, the major works have already been completed. The fuse box has been upgraded and the windows and external doors have been replaced, gas fired central heating via a renewed boiler. Further benefits include a spacious bathroom, a sunny rear garden measuring approximately 70ft in length and a garage situated at the far end of the garden.

About Proctors:

Proctors is an independent network of estate agents comprising five separate businesses trading as proctors. We have been at the heart of the local property scene for decades and combine a lifetime of knowledge with the very latest technology and marketing techniques, to give you an unrivalled service. We won't stop until you get the home, tenant or buyer you're looking for.

If you're thinking of buying, selling or letting your home in Beckenham, Park Langley or West Wickham, or you're moving in Bromley, Shirley, Crystal Palace or Petts Wood in Orpington, Proctors estate agents can help you. As an independent network of estate agents we provide:

  • Sales
  • Lettings
  • New Homes
  • Land and Development

Not just local branches, local people too

Proctors is much more than a full service estate agency; we're passionate about property and the community in which we live.

Between the London Borough of Bromley and Shirley we've got the best shops, schools, parks and cafés, and a whole bunch of charm and vibrancy. South East London is a brilliant place to be - even if we do say so ourselves - and we're keen to keep it that way. That's why at Proctors we invest in the local community - sponsoring sports clubs, charities, school fetes and local initiatives.

We live, work and breathe London life. We eat at local restaurants, we use the public transport, our kids go to the local schools - and our knowledge is here for you. Because we know Bromley and South East London like the back of our hand, we can recommend the ideal place for you to live. To find out more, why not check out our blog here.

Experts in our area

All Proctors staff are highly experienced estate agents, many of whom have been with us for years. Every Proctors office is run by a knowledgeable Partner, committed to making sure you get the best customer service. In fact, over 70 years after George Proctor founded the company, some branches are still run by members of the Proctor family.

Over 70 years of service

We've seen a lot since the doors of the very first branch opened in 1946, but each and every time we help you sell your property or find your dream home it remains just as special. We're looking forward to many more years, delivering the same high quality service we've become known for.

A personal approach

Proctors branches span a wide area of South East London, including Beckenham, Bromley, West Wickham, Park Langley, Petts Wood through to Shirley in Croydon. Proctors is big enough to offer the resources of a large estate agency but small enough to care. You can be sure of a personal touch, plus the support of our network of agents. And because our agents aren't incentivised on individual commission, you can be sure they are dedicated to getting the job done with your best interests at heart. It's no surprise our customers return to us again and again.
