3 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

Ref: AF0987This 1940s semi-detached home offers a rare opportunity for buyers seeking a property with the scope to modernise and add value. With a layout that already works and the potential to adapt and extend or replace the existing garage (subject to planning permission), it offers the perfect foundation for creating a long-term family home.The ground floor provides a bright front lounge with double doors leading into a separate dining room, together with a kitchen, a useful utility room, and the convenience of a downstairs W.C. Upstairs, there are two well-proportioned double bedrooms alongside a third room that works well as a child’s bedroom or a dedicated home office.The rear garden extends to around 60 feet, offering space for a conservatory or a full-width extension (STPP). The current garage, which sits to the side of the property, could be replaced with a modern outbuilding or incorporated into a larger extension project (STPP) creating valuable additional living space. The front garden also offers potential to be reconfigured for off-street parking if required.Practical updates include a replacement combination boiler installed in late 2024.The location is another strength. The property sits just 200 metres from a small local parade of shops, with Banstead village a little over a mile away, offering supermarkets, cafés, and independent retailers.For families, Chipstead Valley Primary School (Outstanding, Ofsted) is approximately half a mile from the property, with Woodmansterne Primary School (Good, Ofsted) within 0.6 miles.
