A unique detached property with fifth of an acre gardens. Enjoying a hidden,
sylvan setting in the heart of South Croydon, just 10 minutes from the
Station, this enchanting property simply must be viewed - if you can find it!
Lovely as it is but with lots of potential - call us now!
Downsizers, upsizers, builders, developers, railway enthusiasts, romantics and
C. S lewis fans should hurry to step through the back of the wardrobe into the
secluded grove surrounding this delightful detached bungalow!
The word 'unique' is overused in estate agency, but you will not find another
property like this - no matter how hard or long you look! The property itself
is a true one - off, however it is the secretive, sylvan setting that really
makes this a magical home!
The property is accessed via a driveway from Selsdon Road, between Chelsham
Road and the bridge, leading to double gates which open into another world. . . .
Inside, a pathway winds through trees and shrubs, past a workshop, a carport
and a very rustic large shed until the bungalow itself is finally revealed. . . .
Dating back to c. 1880, during the expansion of the railways in the days of
Queen Victoria, the property was owned by the railways until 1967 when it was
sold as a result of the 'Beeching Cuts'. It now affords an entrance porch, a
central hallway, reception room/bedroom 2 with log - burning stove, a spacious
open plan kitchen/living/dining room with floor to ceiling windows looking
onto the gardens, a double bedroom with feature fireplace, a bathroom/wc with
both bath and shower enclosure and benefits from gas heating.
Not listed, the bungalow is perfect as it is, however there is possible scope
to extend, outwards or upwards (subject to the usual consents).
The grounds are 0. 21 acres (0. 084 hectares) and may provide some additional
potential for those with a specific requirement for lots of parking, storage
or running a business from home. There may be a possibility for re - development
however the sellers may wish to include a development clause in the sales
contract.
Call the seller's sole agent, Martin & Co Croydon, now for an appointment to
view!
