This immaculate three-bedroom end-of-terrace home offers compact, well-presented living for families, first-time buyers or downsizers who prioritise location and low-maintenance outdoor space. The ground floor features a bright lounge and a modern kitchen/diner finished to a good standard, arranged for everyday family life and informal entertaining.
Set at the end of a peaceful close, the property benefits from a private driveway with space for two cars and a sun-catching, low-maintenance rear garden — rare conveniences so close to Swanley town centre. Swanley Station is under a ten-minute walk (Zone 8) with fast trains to London Bridge in around 20 minutes, making this a practical pick for commuters.
Internally the house measures about 755 sq ft across multiple storeys and includes three bedrooms and a single family bathroom. Heating is by electric storage heaters and the double glazing was installed before 2002; buyers should note these elements when considering running costs and longer-term maintenance or upgrades.
Location strengths are clear: excellent access to primary and secondary schools (St Bartholomew’s and nearby grammar schools), local shops and amenities. However, the wider area scores as more deprived with higher local crime levels; purchasers should weigh the strong transport and schooling links against neighbourhood indicators and consider security and potential improvements.
