Alexandra Drive, London, SE19
For Sale
Kimberley Road, Beckenham, BR3
A well-presented two double bedroom end of terrace house in a very quiet location convenient for Clock House & Kent House stations and near multiple desirable primary schools.
Offering fantastic value for money, these houses offer a great alternative to some of the local flats and of course benefits from being a freehold with a private garden.
On the ground floor there is a separate reception, which is at the front of the house, offering a bright eastern aspect it’s a cosy space that has high ceilings and is neutrally decorated. Worth noting our client has slightly larger sofas than this room might want, taking this into account, it is a decent sized space and as the kitchen accommodates a dining table it only needs to be used as a lounge space.
The kitchen is nicely finished, there is acres of worktop space and the L shape configuration works really well, there’s a range cooker and masses of storage space. The kitchen also gives way to the garden and also a utility area, which is incredibly useful, it houses the washing machine which many will appreciate as it is away from the kitchen. Off the utility space is the bathroom, which is well-finished; there’s a shower over a bath, fully tiled walls and floor and a large window for ventilation.
Upstairs are two double bedrooms, the bedroom to the front of the house has integrated wardrobes and the same sunny eastern aspect as the reception room, making it an incredibly bright room in the mornings. The rear bedroom is marginally larger and overlooks the garden, it also has an integrated wardrobe albeit a slightly smaller one than the other rooms, although there is also scope to add another wardrobe in the space that is above the stairs. Both rooms are nicely decorated and have period feature fireplaces.
The garden is a very easy-to-maintain space; there’s an astroturf lawn, which won’t take too much maintenance! The aspect being west facing means the garden gets the western sun in the afternoon through to the evening, which is an ideal aspect for this afternoon and evening BBQs!
Location-wise, the house is 0.2 mi from Avenue Road tram stop, getting you to Beckenham Junction in four minutes, which opens up a direct link to both London Bridge & Victoria. Clock House Station is 0.4 mi away & Kent House Station is just only slightly further at 0.6 mi away, although it’s unlikely you would use them with the tram stop so close.
The local schools are highly sought after, with the most popular ones being Churchfields, Stuart Fleming (rated outstanding) and the perennially popular Balgowan primary school.
Locally, there are highly-rated independent restaurants, including the popular El Molino tapas and a craft brewery in Br3wery. There are great pizzerias and coffee shops within easy walking distance, as well as a reasonably sized Sainsburys Local 0.3 mi away.
Penge High Street is not far for a more comprehensive selection of shops, and there’s a larger Sainsburys there too. Beckenham High St would likely be your go-to, owing to how accessible it is via the tram opposite and offers a wide variety of restaurants providing a truly global selection of cuisines to choose from, as well as many cafes and coffee shops. Elmers End is 0.8 mi away, with a large Tesco Supermarket, an overland station and South Norwood Country Park, which offers 125 acres of parkland, wetlands and meadow, great for dog walking and exercising.
