It is rare to find a 1930s built house with so many charming original features remaining, this property can really be described as being in 'time warp' condition, upon viewing you will see four original fireplaces, original internal doors, balustrade, picture rail, and windows with part staine...

This three-bedroom property on The Drive, Beckenham, is situated in a convenient location close to Beckenham Junction station and several well-regarded schools. The exterior presents a relatively well-maintained appearance. However, the interior requires extensive modernisation. The images reveal dated décor, worn carpets, a dated kitchen and bathroom, and a general need for refurbishment throughout. While the property benefits from a garden, its exact size and condition are unclear. The asking price of £700,000 needs careful consideration given the required investment, this is supported by the average price of surrounding streets where property type differs significantly. A potential buyer should factor in substantial renovation costs before making an offer. Further investigation into the exact plot size and condition of the property is highly recommended before making a purchase decision. The property would likely suit a buyer willing to undertake a significant renovation project, leveraging their expertise and potentially realizing a higher return once the work is complete. The location and proximity to transport links make this property appealing however significant cost should be accounted for.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
