Set on a generous plot in a quiet Orpington crescent, this three-bedroom semi-detached house offers clear scope for modernisation and extension (subject to consents). The layout is traditional — lounge through to dining room, separate kitchen and a contemporary-style shower room — and the long rear garden provides space for a larger kitchen-diner or family extension. Off-street parking, detached garage with new electric roller door, and good-sized lawn make this a practical family plot.
The property is double glazed and heated by a mains-gas boiler with radiators. While structurally typical of its 1930–49 build, the home needs renovation: carpets, fixtures and finishes are dated and internal updating will be required to reach modern standards. Walls are cavity brick with assumed no retrofit insulation, so buyers should budget for thermal improvements and possible boiler/utility upgrades if desired.
Location is a strong selling point — chain-free sale, very low local crime, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, and within easy reach of highly ranked primary and secondary schools and the mainline station. Council Tax sits above average and the EPC is D; expected ongoing running costs should be considered.
This house will suit a growing family or buyer aiming to add value through sympathetic refurbishment. It offers immediate liveability with scope to create a more spacious, contemporary family home on a substantial suburban plot.
