Summary - 63 ST JOHNS ROAD PETTS WOOD ORPINGTON BR5 1HT
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Family-friendly location minutes from station and outstanding schools.
0.3 miles to Petts Wood Station, excellent commuter links
Set on one of Petts Wood’s most convenient residential roads, this three-bedroom semi-detached house offers a comfortable family layout, off-street parking and a generous 47 ft rear garden. The property totals about 1,064 sq ft and sits 0.3 miles from Petts Wood Station and Crofton schools, making daily commutes and school runs straightforward.
The ground floor includes a welcoming entrance hall, a converted study/occasional fourth bedroom with utility space, a cosy family reception room and a modern kitchen with breakfast bar opening onto the dining area with garden views. Upstairs are two double bedrooms (one with built-in storage), a third bedroom and a single family bathroom — practical for family life but limited for larger households.
Key positives include the potential to extend subject to planning permission (STPP), fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and very low local crime. Buyers should note some important drawbacks: the property dates from the 1930s–40s and the original solid brick walls are assumed to lack cavity insulation; there is only one bathroom; and the site is in a medium flood-risk area. These factors present both renovation requirements and opportunity to add value.
Overall, this freehold house suits a family seeking good local schools, strong transport links and scope to customise or enlarge the home. It’s best for buyers prepared to carry out targeted improvements to modernise thermal efficiency and increase living space (subject to permissions).
