Ash Tree Close, Croydon, CR0

This well-proportioned three-bedroom semi-detached house on Ash Tree Close, Shirley offers approximately 1,155 sq ft (107.3 sq m) of accommodation, together with a driveway, two separate reception rooms, a generous kitchen/dining room and a particularly substantial rear garden. Two garden outbuildings provide a further 206 sq ft (19.1 sq m), including a dedicated home office and workshop, while the house also offers potential for a loft conversion, subject to the necessary planning permissions and consents.

The front reception room measures approximately 15'3 into the bay x 10'10 max. The bay window adds both character and additional floor space, while its separation from the accommodation towards the rear creates a defined living area.

Beyond this is a second sitting room measuring approximately 16'3 x 10'10. Having two separate reception spaces provides considerable flexibility for family life, with the second room equally capable of working as an additional lounge, dining area or playroom.

The kitchen/dining room is particularly generous at approximately 18'3 max x 16'2 max. The kitchen was replaced approximately two years ago and there is ample room for a dining table alongside the main kitchen area. French doors open directly onto the garden, creating a useful connection between the house and outside space.

Upstairs, there are three bedrooms. Bedroom one is a good-sized double measuring approximately 13' x 10'10, while bedroom two is particularly generous at approximately 15'10 into the bay x 10'11 max. Bedroom three provides the property's third bedroom and measures approximately 6'11 x 5'5.

The family bathroom was replaced approximately six years ago and includes both a bath and separate shower, alongside a basin and WC. The owners also advise that the double glazing was renewed approximately eight years ago.

The property offers further potential above, with scope to consider a loft conversion to create additional accommodation, subject to the necessary planning permission, building regulations and other required consents.

Outside, the rear garden is a significant feature of the property, measuring approximately 70'5 x 30'10 at its widest points.

The garden is also home to two substantial outbuildings. The first, measuring approximately 14'11 x 9'9, was added around 15 years ago and is currently used as a home office, with electricity connected and the additional benefit of a covered veranda. A second workshop, added approximately five years ago, measures approximately 9'6 x 6'5 and also has an electricity supply.

Together, the two outbuildings provide approximately 206 sq ft (19.1 sq m) of additional space and offer considerable flexibility for home working, hobbies, storage or workshop use. Including these spaces, the floorplan extends to approximately 1,361 sq ft (126.4 sq m) in total.

To the front, the property benefits from its own driveway providing off-street parking.
