*Vendor comments* "It is a real struggle to sufficiently describe our charming first home that is much loved by our children, parents, family and friends. It is such a hub of much cherished memories.

The house is perfectly located to take advantage of a preschool, a primary school, a secondary school, local convenience shops, takeaways, restaurants and pubs, all within a 1 to 5 minute walking distance. During peak hours, the area feels alive with people walking to and from East Croydon Station which is only about a 5-minute walk away. From there, trains take about 14 mins to London Bridge, 16 mins to London Victoria, 29 mins to St Pancras International and 15 mins Gatwick Airport. There are also trams to Wimbledon with journey times of 29 mins and many bus routes including one to Heathrow Airport.

The low-maintenance garden has provided a great outdoor play area space for several children and was particularly useful when we had friends over. There was also enough space for us to grow vegetables like tomatoes, gourd, mint, other leafy greens and flowers.

There is always a lovely warmth that greets you when entering our home – an advantage of being a terraced house where heating from both neighbours reaches ours even before we put our own central heating on! The new Ideal Logic combi boiler, which was installed in April 2022 and has a 6.5 year warranty remaining provides efficient heating and hot water on demand. The whole house was double-glazed in 2013 which explains why since then it has always retained a lot of its heat which is particularly useful during the winter months.

Downstairs, the kitchen is full of delightful memories of family meals being cooked and served in the adjacent dining room. The living room reminds us of the happy times spent there during various celebrations over the years with friends and families.

Upstairs, our 2 bedrooms had a king size bed each, huge wardrobes, a good size study table & chair and still had sufficient space for movement. There is also scope to extend and convert the loft into a living space although this would probably be subject to planning permission.

There is so much to love about this house, particularly for a first-time buyer. If it were not for family medical issues, we would not be looking to sell such a wonderful home in such a vibrant location.

A redecoration of the house was completed in March 2023 and a rental appraisal carried out thereafter gave a rental value of between £1,500-£1,600pcm. There are always several things that could be improved when someone looks to move into a new home and we know that this one is not an exception to the rule! That said, the house may also suit someone looking to buy and rent now or in the future especially since a few of the houses in the same row are already rented.

We hope and wish that the new owner looks after the house with the same care and attention that we have over the last decade or so and that in return it provides them with a great home for many years".

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on January 2, 2024

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on January 2, 2024

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services

    Energy Performance data and Internal floor area: obtained on December 4, 2015 from The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 or the Home Report if in relation to a residential property in Scotland.
