The Agent's Opinion:

The property comprises one of a select group of houses built during the 1970's in the distinct "neo-Georgian" styling; quite a statement of its time and very popular within the local area! A particular feature of the house is that it enjoys a long rear garden which meets the Kenley Woodlands to the rear.

The architectural features are combined with modern day practicalities to include: a sizeable, open-plan, living/dining space which opens into a large and secluded rear garden; a re-fitted kitchen with classic light oak panelled doors and integrated appliances; and four double bedrooms. The well proportioned accommodation also includes an integral garage, hall cloakroom, gas central heating, energy efficient cavity wall insulation, and double glazed windows.

Situation and Local Amenities:

The location of this property is a particular feature, enjoying a semi-rural setting within Old Coulsdon Village, highly regarded by those who wish to be "off the beaten track".

The area enjoys several areas of open spaces nearby including Kenley Common and the Farthing Downs and New Hill; all popular for country walks, etc..

Caterham Drive is a no-through road in the valley of Old Coulsdon and this house is located towards the far north-western end of the road near to the bridle path entrance into local woodland, known as Dollypers Hill.

For convenience, further along the road is a local "hopper" 'bus service connecting Old Coulsdon's Village centre, where a variety of local shops and services are available including a sub-Post Office and general grocery store. Further 'bus services connect the neighbouring towns of Caterham, Coulsdon, and central Croydon. Coulsdon South railway station is within two miles, providing regular services to central London via East Croydon, and to the Sussex Coast via Gatwick Airport and Redhill. The area is well served by local schools for all ages.
