2 bed cottage for sale

Mill Lane, Carshalton SM5

Silverman Black is delighted to offer this characterful two bedroom semi detached Victorian cottage located right in the heart of Carshalton Village. The property does, in truth, require a programme of updating and refurbishment, but should be viewed as a "blank canvass" for the new owners to create a wonderful new home for themselves! The property affords two well proportioned reception rooms on ground floor with a generous kitchen and a rather "quirky" conservatory - whilst upstairs there are two double bedrooms with the bathroom accessed the rear room, although it would be possible to arrange independent access with limited investment. Externally, the rear garden extends around 50 ft in length, with much of the area laid to patio for ease of maintenance. The property is double glazed and has gas central heating to radiators (not tested), whilst also affording potential for extension into the loft or to the side (formalising the conservatory) - one of these projects likely to be able to be conducted under the current permitted development regulations. In terms of local facilities, The Grove - reputed to be the finest remaining example of a Victorian urban park in London - the River Wandle and The Westcroft Leisure Centre are all pretty much within sight of the house! Carshalton br station is located almost opposite the far end of Mill Lane (10 minutes walk/0.5 miles) - and affords frequent fast trains into Clapham Junction and London Victoria. The whole Borough is extremely well served with fantastic educational facilities - with 5 Grammar Schools within a 3 mile radius, and a number of exceptional State, Private and Independent schools all located within 15 minutes walk. So - although this property will require an investment of time, money and "love" - the "bones of the property" are good and we feel this will make someone a fabulous home in the future. The property is empty, we have keys - so call today to book your appointment.
