Set at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac on the desirable Crofton Heath development, this four-bedroom detached home offers almost 1,800 sq ft of well-planned family living. The property combines a double-length reception, an impressive open-plan kitchen/diner with sliding doors to a large private garden, and a separate utility — ideal for everyday family life and entertaining.
Finished to a high standard, the house features bespoke fitted units, quartz worktops, underfloor heating in bathrooms, remote-controlled air conditioning to the principal bedroom and useful USB sockets. Ample built-in storage, quality floor coverings and a covered porch add practical convenience. Driveway parking and a generous plot are strong benefits for growing families.
There is scope to extend on both sides, subject to planning consent, which will appeal to buyers wanting to add value or adapt the layout. Local amenities, fast links into Central London via Orpington station and excellent nearby schools (including Darrick Wood and Newstead Wood) make this a compelling family location.
Buyers should note a few practical points: the house was constructed in the 1950s–1960s and has cavity walls with assumed no insulation, so additional insulation works could be advisable. Council tax is described as quite expensive. Planning permission would be required for any extensions, and the exact dates for double glazing installations are unknown.
