Description
An attractive and characterful three-bedroom period home on popular Blandford Road, offering a practical family layout, two genuine double bedrooms, a generous kitchen/diner, separate front reception, downstairs WC and private rear garden. The property works very well in its present form while retaining excellent scope for future reconfiguration and extension, subject to the necessary permissions.
The house retains plenty of period character, including a handsome brick frontage, distinctive stained-glass entrance door and fanlight, stripped wooden floors and feature fireplaces.
The ground-floor layout is particularly useful. To the front is a separate reception room measuring approximately 12'4 x 10'10, providing a comfortable living room which can be closed away from the rest of the house. This is ideal for family life, entertaining or simply having a separate space away from the kitchen.
Unlike many similar houses that have already been fully opened up, the original separation of the front reception has been retained. This gives future owners a high degree of flexibility: the current arrangement works very well as it is, while buyers wishing to undertake a more ambitious transformation have an excellent starting point from which to explore a larger open-plan layout, rear extension and/or loft conversion, subject to planning permission, Building Regulations and any other necessary consents.
To the rear is a generous kitchen/dining room measuring approximately 15'11 x 11'1. There is ample space for a full-size dining table alongside the fitted kitchen, making this a very practical everyday family space. Doors lead directly out to the rear garden.
A particularly useful ground-floor WC is located off the hallway, providing an additional practical feature that is not always found in houses of this type.
Upstairs are three bedrooms and the family bathroom. The principal bedroom is a well-proportioned double with twin front windows, built-in storage, wooden flooring and a feature fireplace. The second bedroom is also a genuine double, while the third bedroom is ideally suited as a child's room, nursery or home office.
The first floor is completed by a modern family bathroom with bath and overhead shower.
Outside, the house benefits from a private rear garden with mature planting and established greenery, together with a paved area immediately outside the kitchen suitable for outdoor dining, children's play or entertaining.
One of the property's major attractions is its location. Blandford Road is a well-established residential street in the Clock House area of Beckenham, with convenient access to Clock House and Kent House railway stations as well as nearby tram services, providing a useful choice of connections towards London and the surrounding area.
The house is also well positioned for a choice of well-regarded local schools, parks and recreational facilities, while Beckenham's shops, cafés, restaurants and other amenities are within easy reach.
For buyers looking for a long-term home, the property offers an appealing combination: three bedrooms, two genuine doubles, a large kitchen/diner, separate reception room, downstairs WC and private garden today, together with considerable potential to adapt and enlarge the house in future.
