A characterful three-bedroom semi-detached home set on a decent plot in a convenient Orpington location. Offered chain free, the house has generous period charm — leaded windows, feature fireplaces and a mature, flowering garden that wraps around the property and provides private outdoor space for children and entertaining. A bespoke kitchen/breakfast room opens to a formal dining area, and the principal bedroom includes floor-to-ceiling built-in wardrobes.
Practical advantages include freehold tenure, off-street parking on a small driveway, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, and easy walking distance to shops and the station. Nearby primary and secondary schools include several rated Good, making this suitable for families.
Known considerations are factual: the property dates from the 1930s–1940s with solid brick walls (assumed uninsulated) and double glazing of unknown age — opportunities and likely costs for insulation and energy upgrades should be expected. The current layout shows the third bedroom used as a bathroom, so returning it to a bedroom or altering the plan will need work. Local crime statistics are above average, and some buyers may want to check security and neighbourhood details. Overall this is a solid, characterful family home with clear scope for sympathetic updating.
