A three-bedroom detached house offered for sale by online auction with a six-week completion window. The property is vacant and requires full refurbishment, presenting a clear opportunity for buyers prepared to invest in updating and reconfiguring the space. Its mid-20th-century build sits on a decent plot with off-street parking and a rear garden.
The house has strong value drivers: freehold tenure, scope to extend to the rear or side subject to planning (STPP), good local schools and easy access to Orpington station and local amenities. The layout and room sizes are average for the period, and the property’s footprint could support an extension or internal reconfiguration to increase living space and resale value.
Buyers should be aware of material drawbacks: the home needs renovation throughout, the walls are solid-brick with assumed no insulation, and there is a single bathroom. There is a medium flood risk for the area and the sale will proceed at auction, requiring a quick completion. For investors or owner-occupiers seeking a project in a very affluent suburb, this offers tangible upside if budgeted carefully for works and potential planning costs.
