The Avenue, Beckenham

A detached period property, home to long term owners for nearly 70 years, believed to be the stables for a mansion house in years past.  There are some wonderful attributes with the external spaces including deep front driveway with off street parking, brick paved courtyard between the main house and garage, plus south facing rear garden.  The internal space provides larger room proportions than one might expect with 'stables' in mind, with three separate reception areas, three double bedrooms and a full head height basement with door to rear garden.  Any new buyer will want to carry out complete renovation work to bring this property up to modern standards.  A must-see opportunity for anyone wishing to create a unique stand-alone home.
