Top tips for a West Norwood Home Buyers Survey
West Norwood is an area of South London which has streets with double-fronted Victorian and Edwardian houses, particularly on its side bordering West Dulwich, and St Luke's Church, built in the early 19th century, dominates the main thoroughfare, Norwood Road.
You can find 1920s semi-detached and terrace houses in numbers around Lavengro Road and Cheviot Road at the top of York Hill and mainly Victorian terrace houses on the side bordering Streatham, for example around Knollys Road and Julian's Farm Road.
New builds include The Triangle in nearby Gipsy Road, which offers 2 and 3-bedroom apartments, and the duplexes in Thurlow Park Road.

Raised levels of noise pollution from roads in the West Norwood area mainly centre around the main road – Norwood Road/Knight's Hill, and of rail pollution where the railway line crosses the Norwood Road. | According to the UK Government's Public Health England, some parts of West Norwood, including streets such as St Faiths Road and Abbess Close, are in a raised radon area, with properties built there having a higher probability than average of experiencing ground Radon emissions. The raised Radon area has a maximum radon potential of 1-3% (the percentage is the chance of a property being built where Radon emissions might measure above the action level). If you are concerned that a property you are buying is in an area of raised Radon, please click to visit Public Health England's UK Radon Map. Click also to find out more about Radon, Radon property searches and much more. | A recent Environmental Search for a property in Norwood Park Road, London, SE27 9UB, stated that the dwelling was within 50m of an area with potential for natural ground instability. The British Geological Survey has assessed the area of search as having moderate potential for natural ground instability. This does not necessarily mean there is cause for concern in terms of the property's stability. Active subsidence will be dependent on local conditions, such as the proximity of trees or areas where trees have been removed, which require an inspection of the site to identify the nature of the ground on which the property is built. A house buyers survey is advised to look for signs of property damage that may indicate poor natural ground conditions. |

Home Buyers Survey - What does it cover?

The aim of the survey, whether a Building Survey (which used to be known as a Full Structural Survey) or a HomeBuyers Report, is to identify potential risks or defects that you may not know are there such as cracks or damage to the structure of the property, subsidence, damp and infestations.
