A compact two-bedroom chalet-style bungalow offering low-rise living in an established Orpington neighbourhood. The ground floor provides a reception room, kitchen opening to a private courtyard, a family bathroom and a flexible room that can serve as a study or second bedroom. Upstairs holds the principal bedroom with useful eaves storage; note there is reduced head height in part of the first-floor room.
Practical features include gas central heating, double glazing and a freehold title. The plot is small with a courtyard-style rear garden and a modest front area with mature shrubs; this makes the property a low-maintenance option for downsizers or buyers seeking an easy-to-manage home. Broadband and mobile signal are strong and local schools and rail links are within easy reach.
Important sale details: the property is being sold at auction. Buyers must pay a non-refundable Reservation Fee (4.5% of purchase price, minimum £6,600) plus a buyer pack fee (£300) and be ready to complete within the auction timescales. The Buyer Information Pack should be reviewed and you must carry out your own technical and legal due diligence.
The exterior shows typical mid-20th-century brickwork and period roof tiles; there is some moss on the roof and the cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, which may mean improvement works are needed to upgrade thermal performance. Overall this is a straightforward, modest property with practical bones and scope for sensible improvement rather than a turnkey family home.
