Shrewsbury Road, Beckenham, BR3

This 1930s end-of-terrace house has been a much-loved family home and now offers an exciting opportunity for a new owner to modernise and personalise the property to their own taste. Occupying an unusually large, almost double-width plot, the property offers excellent potential for extension, subject of course to the usual investigations, consents and planning permissions. The generous plot currently provides off-street parking, and extensive gardens, offering considerable scope for both landscaping and future development. The house retains its original layout, comprising two reception rooms, a kitchen with rear lobby to the ground floor, together with three bedrooms and a remodelled bathroom on the first floor. Further benefits include gas-fired radiator central heating and sealed-unit double-glazed replacement windows, some of which are complemented by attractive plantation shutters. Outside, the extensive and sunny gardens provide an excellent blank canvas for gardening enthusiasts, with plenty of space to create an attractive outdoor space for relaxing and entertaining. For buyers seeking a property with genuine potential to create a home tailored to their own requirements, particularly in a highly sought-after location, this could be an excellent opportunity and is certainly worthy of an internal viewing.

Enjoying a peaceful yet convenient location, the property is well placed for excellent transport links, with Clock House station providing services to London Bridge and Charing Cross, while Beckenham Junction offers services to London Victoria and London Bridge, together with Tramlink connections to Croydon and Wimbledon. Local shops and amenities can be found along Croydon Road and at Elmers End Green, with the extensive facilities of Beckenham High Street also nearby, including shops, cafés, restaurants, bars, gyms and a cinema. A good selection of schools and attractive green spaces, including Kelsey Park, Crease Park and Croydon Road Recreation Ground, are also close by.
