Great location for family starter home with potential for more

This property has all the basics but needs a good makeover. Tommy Barker reports

A DECENT, west-facing back garden with separate rear lane access is a boon with the family starter-home Loretto: that, and a great location near schools, hospitals, County Hall and the Lee Fields, as well as colleges.

The older-style three-bed semi-d has recently had underpinning work and drains re-done, has had replacement windows fitted — but needs a good modernising makeover now to maximise its assets.
