The Perfect Family Home If You’re Looking For An Easy Move. Life’s too short for stripping wallpaper or DIY - this is perfect if you want a move-in ready, hassle free family home. The gardens are all low maintenance and it even has a garage.

If you’re juggling work, kids and everything else besides, the last thing you want is a “doer-upper”.

Can there be anything worse than coming home after a hard day at work to the thought of stripping wallpaper or decorating long into the night?

Thankfully this affordable mid-terrace is neat as a pin. It has stylish neutral decoration throughout so you’d not even need to lift a paintbrush.

It’s one of three 40 year old properties in a street of much older bay-fronted houses - so it does stand out a little.

And what stands out when you step inside from the hall is the crisp, clean condition of the spacious living room.

There's plenty of room for both a relaxed seating area and a dining table, so no need to eat off your lap infront of the TV.

The modern fitted kitchen is at the rear, with access to the back garden.

The garden has been designed for sitting out and enjoying the late afternoon and evening sun.

There’s no mowing required with a zero-upkeep artificial lawn and a decking seating area carefully positioned to catch the sun.

When you head out of the back gate there’s a single garage in a separate block. There’s plenty of on street parking in front of the house but it’s always handy to have the garage for secure storage.

Upstairs has a double bedroom, two good size single bedrooms with the potential to fit double beds in as well as the family bathroom.

As a family-friendly property, it’s great to know that the local primary school, Harris Primary Academy Kenley is rated “Outstanding” by Ofsted. And it’s just as good to know that it will only take 5 minutes in the car or less than 15 minutes to walk there.

Older kids have a little further to travel to reach Riddlesdown Collegiate (another “Outstanding” school) but it’s still only 20 minutes on the bus or a similar length bike ride.

It’s less than a 10 minute walk to Purley High Street where there’s a good selection of shops, pubs and restaurants. It’s also less than an hour from Central London, with frequent trains from Purley that will get you to London Bridge or Victoria in around 30 minutes.

This is a fantastic family home that proves it is possible to grab a great value property without being forced to spend months living on a building site.

I’m certain this is going to be a very popular property - call to arrange a viewing.
