Summary - 20 DORIS AVENUE ERITH DA8 3ND
2 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached Bungalow
Compact single-floor home with garden and multi-car parking close to rail links.
Freehold two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow, single-storey living
This well-presented two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow sits at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac on the Barnehurst border, offering single-floor living ideal for someone looking to downsize without sacrificing outdoor space. The layout is traditional and practical, with a 14' lounge, a functional kitchen, two bedrooms and a single bathroom arranged within a compact 512 sq ft footprint.
Outside, a multi-car driveway and a tiered, low-maintenance rear garden provide excellent space for socialising and summer barbecues. The property is freehold, has mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, double glazing (installation date unknown) and no identified flood risk. Local transport links are strong, including nearby rail services, and everyday amenities and several primary schools are within easy reach.
The bungalow offers immediate comfort but also clear scope to add value. The solid brick walls date from the 1930s and are assumed to lack cavity insulation — improving insulation and updating windows or services could reduce running costs and modernise the home. The footprint is small and there is only one bathroom, so buyers should be comfortable with compact living or prepared to adapt the layout where permitted.
Practical matters: any buyer should verify planning/building regulation consents for the lean-to or other alterations, confirm the age and condition of glazing and services, and check any required maintenance. Overall, this property will appeal to downsizers seeking low-step living, gardeners who value a manageable outside area, or buyers wanting a compact home with renovation potential in a well-connected, affluent area.
