This large freehold semi-detached house offers flexible accommodation across approximately 2,336 sq ft, ideal for growing or multi-generational families. The property includes a self-contained annexe accessible via an internal lockable door, a substantial lower-ground cellar with conversion potential, and off-street parking for up to three cars. Close to Orpington station and several Outstanding primary and secondary schools, it suits buyers prioritising space and strong local amenities.
Outdoor living is a standout: a large, private rear garden with extensive timber decking, elevated balcony and lawn provides excellent entertaining and family play space. The home has double glazing (fitted post-2002) and mains gas central heating, supporting comfort and efficient everyday use.
The house will reward updating: external finishes and some internal areas would benefit from modernisation to unlock full value. EPC rating C73 is reasonable for the age but improvements could reduce running costs. Council tax is noted as expensive and should be factored into budget planning.
Overall this is a substantial 1950s-built, multi-level home on a generous plot with clear scope for reconfiguration or extension (subject to consents). It will suit buyers who want space, a separate annexe, and a large garden, and who are prepared to invest in modernisation to personalise the finish.
