A spacious semi-detached family home in a sought-after Orpington location, set on a decent plot with a long rear garden and off-street parking. The house benefits from double glazing, gas central heating and a traditional Tudor-style exterior that gives it character in the street.
This property is well placed for families: Orpington mainline station is about 0.5 miles away and a cluster of highly regarded primary and secondary schools, including Newstead Wood and Darrick Wood, are within easy reach. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and the neighbourhood records very low crime and high affluence.
The interior offers flexible living with a generous reception layout and a ground-floor room that can serve as a study or occasional bedroom. The single bathroom provision and dated fixtures mean the house would benefit from modernisation throughout, presenting good scope to reconfigure or extend (subject to consents) and add value.
Important practical points: the property is freehold, was built in the late 1970s/early 1980s, and currently needs renovation. Council tax sits above average. For a buyer willing to invest, this provides an opportunity to create a comfortable, contemporary family home in a prime suburban setting.
