Property description
Already familiar with the general locality having lived in Carshalton for 20 years, the current owners decided they wanted a more semi-rural environment with a better expanse of open space and leafy surroundings. As dog owners, the general area is fantastic with miles of countryside close to hand including Oaks Park, and Banstead Downs.
This property offered them the convenient and leafy location they wanted with a huge amount of scope to increase the size of the property.
Over the last 13 years they have improved and upgraded, remodelling the accommodation to make the most of their home. They have extended to both the rear and side to enlarge the lounge and dining areas as well as creating a breakfast area to the kitchen and converting the garage to make a shower and dressing room to one of the ground floor bedrooms (great if you have teenagers requiring more privacy).
With the extensions done, it is the amount of ground floor space and the lovely secluded dog friendly garden the owners now appreciate the most.
Assuming that they wouldn’t both be driving in the distant future, another appealing feature of the location is that there is a bus stop at the end of the road on Croydon Lane with buses that currently run to Banstead, Epsom, Purley and West Croydon and even Sutton, changing at Banstead High Street.
What the Owner says:
We have been very happy here. It’s such a bright and airy, yet warm and cosy home.
Apart from the location being accessible to everywhere we often frequent, we love the sense of internal space in our home. We feel all the rooms are good sizes and it’s a very relaxing home.
We love our garden, it’s very secluded, fully enclosed (dog friendly) and the perfect place to unwind in. The large decking area is great for barbecues, and there is plenty of parking when our guests come to stay.
Although we have extended already, there is also a lot more potential here, we have just obtained planning permission to extend into the loft providing 3 bedrooms and a bathroom.
