A deceptively spacious and beautifully presented 132.5 Sqm Semi Detached 1930's built house offered for sale chain free.

The house benefits from unusually high ceilings and lovely wide hallway, that's been extended to the rear and has planning approval for dormer and Gable extension creating a large open-plan bedroom with en-suite bathroom to the large loft space. This space can also be partitioned to make two equally large bedrooms.

It's conveniently located for a number of different mainline BR stations including Ravensbourne, Shortlands, Bromley North, Bromley South and Beckenham Hill BR. By road, it's a short drive to Bromley, Beckenham, Catford and Lewisham Town centres. You can also pick up a Tram to Croydon Towns from Beckenham. Shopping Malls, Parks, Hospitals, bus, tram and trains are all nearby.

Bromley Town Centre focuses on brand name retail fashion outlets and chain 'type' restaurants, but there's also a choice of brilliant and popular restaurants in nearby Beckenham. There's no shortage of gastro pubs with outdoor garden and eating areas.

The property is close to a choice of reputable primary and secondary schools and near to the popular and much loved Beckenham Place Park complete with country walks, outdoor swimming in the lake and members Golf Course.

For family needs, there are GP surgery's within a 3 minutes drive, there's a Dentist a similar distance away and there's a pharmacy at the end of the road and a few minutes away by foot. There are also convenience stores, for milk, bread and smaller groceries in the same parade of shops, a rather nice Indian restaurant, an always busy Turkish/Mediterranean and a very popular Fish and Chips takeaway.

Offering Three/Four bedrooms (three of which are doubles with one on the ground floor), a family sized bathroom and downstairs shower room, a large through lounge leading into the extended space - now a functional kitchen with space for those who like to cook or bake, and with scope to further increase substantially due to the superb 70 plus ft garden with a small summer house which has electricty (and its own fuseboard), and is perfect for those lazy summer evenings...

In fact, this could easily be a 5 or 6 bedroom house if you created two further bedrooms in the huge loft space. Additional benefits are space for one to park, and unrestricted road parking.

The A20 and A2 are within easy reach by car providing routes into Kent.

Much improved by the current owners, it's a lovely property throughout.

Flood Risk
Surface Water
High
Unlike flooding from rivers, surface water flooding can happen many miles from a river, often in places that people wouldn’t expect because it’s a long way from a river or stream – it happens simply because there is nowhere else for the rainwater to go. Risk ratings are measured as:
High Risk - an area which has a chance of flooding of greater than 1 in 30 (3.3%) in any one year.
Medium Risk - an area which has a chance of flooding of greater than 1 in 100 (1.0%) in any one year.
Low Risk - an area which has a chance of flooding of greater than 1 in 1000 (0.1%) in any one year.
Very Low Risk - an area in which the risk is below 1 in 1000 (0.1%) in any one year

About Fish Need Water
We meet people, where they’re looking: online.
A local agent might rightly claim to have 20 people registered with them who’re desperate for a property like yours. But those exact people are getting Rightmove alerts and calling up as soon as the listing goes online anyway. In fact, 97% of people start their property search online, on one of the big portals. So we meet them there, rather than restricting ourselves to one local area.

The old model of connecting home buyers with sellers is dying, because today, buyers have instant access to every property on the market – not everyone needs an estate agent to act as the matchmaker.
Our team
We get asked about our name more than anything else, and it seems you either love it or hate it, which is why its like Marmite.

And just like how Marmite is free of any added nasties, you'll find us free of the usual estate agency hyperbole and oh-so-tired cliches that repeatedly get peddled, over and over again, ad infinitum.

Fish do actually need water. And many of us aspire to own our perfect home - so it just made sense and anyhow, it sounds nice and it sure beats the heck out of the usual oh-look-we’ve-combined-our-surnames trick.
Testimonial 1
Would thoroughly recommend Fish need water as a top estate agent. James was great, very honest and efficient throughout the process. Lorraine was also absolutely brilliant in keeping us all on track and bringing everything together whilst we were having challenges with solicitors both sides. Great, Friendly and kind service overall.
Testimonial 2
Used this company when searching for a property. Easy to use form was sent to me to provide further details about my search, and after this the agents were very attentive and communicative. Very professional and easy to use service.
Testimonial 3
Im so glad we came across FNW. We've instructed a number of high end estate agents since 2018 for the sale of our property with so much disappoint and no luck. We finally got a sale on our property in less than 2 months. Would 100% recommend them as they are the hardest working agents we’ve come across to all my friends and family and will definitely consider them in the future.

Council Tax pays for multiple services in the property's local authority with only part of it going to the council itself. Residences within a Parish or Town Council area have an additional charge to fund the body. Each parish/town council has a different budget and imposes different fees. Not all councils have parishes/town councils and this varies across the country.

In instances where parish/town councils do affect the council tax value and we do not have the exact figure, we present council tax data with the below highlights. Take care to confirm which is being presented by the dashboard as this will need to be made clear to your clients:

avg - When we indicate the Council Tax price is 'avg', it means we have not been able to obtain an exact figure, so this number represents the mean value of Council Tax across the council for that property band. The exact figure will be slightly higher or lower because each parish/town council is priced differently.

min - When we indicate the Council Tax is a 'min', it represents the known amount that the council sets for itself, but excludes the parish/town council cost which we have not been able to obtain. The additional cost will need to be considered as it will be greater than the indicated price.
