Property Description

***VENDOR COMMENTS:*** "Before purchasing the property my family had been privately renting for over 10 years, one being in a position to buy, I couldn't wait to find a property I could truly call my own. After viewing over 10 properties in the local area, we instantly fell in love the moment we viewed and I knew the place was perfect for my family and I.

There were several things that attracted me to this house, the main one being the space. All three bedrooms are doubles with a large landing area and downstairs had a very warm and inviting open plan living/dining area. Storage space was also important and this property has ample storage options, including a massive loft; great for anyone wanting to do a loft conversion!

Many of the rooms still retain their original features. The property has an sizeable garden providing private rear access, which has proven to be very handy over the years. There is also the option to purchase a yearly parking permit for your vehicles, this covers a large perimeter including nearby to East Croydon Station; you can park there and hop on a train to Central London for work or pleasure.

Being close to several local schools, a range of buses and train links was also a winning factor as I had two children under the age of 10. Over the 11 years that we have lived here, it has been really easy for both my children to commute to and from school, as well as for leisure activities. Last year, Legacy youth zone, which is only a 5min walk away, was opened offering fantastic facilities for young people including rock climbing and a fitness centre.

For many years I worked in Croydon and was within walking distance of my work place. I now work in Clapham and the 50 bus route takes me straight there, or alternatively, it's an 18 min train journey from Selhurst station into Clapham Junction.

Northcote Road is so centrally based and there is an abundance of places to purchase last-minute essentials including; Tesco Express, Co-op Express and now the new Aldi, all within a 5min walk. There is also a wide range of cafes and take-away food shops to explore at one's leisure. There are parks and a number of green spaces nearby too. The infamous Norwood Lakes is a 10 min drive away.

This house itself is full of potential with the option to extend to the back, widen the kitchen or convert the loft.

I have really loved living here for the past 11 years and raising my children. It has been quiet enough to not have any trouble but busy enough to allow access to all the necessary amenities. My only reason for selling at this time is because I am relocating abroad but even still I will miss this house tremendously".
