Downs Road, Coulsdon, CR5 1AA

A Character Home on the Edge of Farthing Down Set with views over Coulsdon Memorial Park and directly adjacent to Farthing Down, it's a three-to-four bedroom detached home that has kept its character intact while quietly getting on with modern family life.

You arrive through an entrance porch, then into a lobby.

The sitting room is double aspect, with a window to the front and a feature brick fireplace housing a log burner, wooden flooring runs through, and double doors open into a conservatory that's become one of the house's genuine draws: part brick-built, heat reflecting tinted glass roof, generously proportioned with year-round use as a further reception room.

Double doors from this space open out into the level garden outside. The kitchen/dining room is triple aspect, with windows to the front, rear and side, so it rarely wants for light.

Fitted units and underfloor heating do the practical work; a double door opening through to the conservatory keeps the whole ground floor connected.

An outer lobby leads to the rear garden and houses a downstairs shower room and WC, genuinely useful, particularly alongside the additional reception room (or fourth bedroom, depending on what your household needs) with windows to the rear and side.

Upstairs, the landing leads to three bedrooms.

The first has windows to the front and side and a fitted wardrobe; the second looks out to the front; the third is a good, spacious room with a window to the rear.

The bathroom has a bath, with both a fixed and an adjustable shower head.

Outside, the garden has been landscaped and includes a patio area, three distinct decking areas that catch the sun at different points of the day and a greenhouse.

There is a garage en-bloc (held under a lease and on a separate site) - ideal for additional storage or car. What sets this home apart isn't any single feature, it's the setting.

Farthing Down and Coulsdon Memorial Park aren't a view from a brochure photograph; they're right there, out of the window, every day.

It's a rare thing to find a period character home with this much space and this much sky, this close to the centre of Coulsdon. Worth seeing for yourself.
