Set on a quiet no-through road close to Broomhill Common and Orpington High Street, this freehold mid-terrace offers practical family living across approximately 795 sq ft. The open-plan lounge/diner gives a sense of space and floods the ground floor with light via sliding patio doors to a south-facing, low-maintenance garden. Two double bedrooms upstairs and a family bathroom suit a small family or first-time buyers wanting a turn-key home in a well-served area.
Practical extras include an en-bloc garage and on-street parking, mains gas central heating and double glazing. The location is a strong selling point — Orpington mainline station, bus routes, shops and highly rated schools are within easy walking distance, supporting everyday convenience and commuting.
Buyers should note the plot is small and internal rooms are average in size; the kitchen is compact and best suited to light cooking or updating for greater storage. The property dates from the 1950s–60s and external walls are cavity as built with no confirmed added insulation, so energy-efficiency improvements (insulation, loft works) could be beneficial and incur cost. Council Tax is moderate (Band D).
Overall this is a tidy, well-presented terrace with sensible layout and local amenities close by. It will particularly suit small families, commuters and investors seeking a rentable two-bedroom in a very affluent, low-crime neighbourhood with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
