This superb home is a real find and has accomodaton over four floors. At street level as you approach the home you realise its commanding position offering stunning views across Purley from its elevated road position but you also see that there is a basement level that mirrors the size of the ground floor, currently arranged as an extensive utility and storage area but could easily be repurposed as a gym, work, studio. The traditional accomodation offers high ceilings in keeping with the period and spacious rooms allowing for large pieces of furniture for downsizers whilst all the bedrooms are large doubles off a spacious landing. On the top floor there is a large double bedroom with access to spacious loft storage that could be relatively simply converted into an impressive ensuite.
Outside there is a beautiful traditional flat lawn enclosed by tall trees and perennial borders and a terrace with sweeping views. There are and abundance of mature plantings and blooms on the tiered terrace and a secret patio hidden behind rose bushes.
There is a garage and off street parking to side and front of the property.
