Substantial garden, garages and top local schools within short walk.
Almost 5,000 sq ft across three storeys and ~11 principal rooms
An exceptional family home on the favoured Bickley Park Estate, this detached period-style house offers almost 5,000 sq ft of flexible living across three floors. The heart of the house is a large, connected kitchen/dining/sitting area and a sun-filled conservatory that open onto a magnificent 196' west-facing garden — ideal for evening light and family entertaining. The property includes a triple garage, wide block-paved driveway and mature, private grounds.
Accommodation includes six principal bedrooms, four bathrooms and a versatile second-floor suite that has previously served as a self-contained annexe with separate heating. The principal suite benefits from fitted wardrobes, a dressing room and an ensuite; several bedrooms have fitted storage. There are numerous reception rooms, a study and extensive fitted storage, giving scope for formal and informal family living.
Important practical points: heating is from an oil-fired boiler with radiator distribution, and the house is of solid brick construction with assumed lack of cavity insulation—both factors to consider for running costs and future improvement. Council tax is described as very expensive. While presentation is attractive and many rooms are ready to use, there is scope for selective modernisation to update services and finishes to current standards.
Location is a major selling point for families: excellent schools are within short walking distance, Bickley and Chislehurst stations are close by (approx. 8–14 minute walk), and the property sits in a very affluent, low-crime area with fast broadband and strong mobile coverage. Sold chain free, the house offers rare scale, privacy and long-term potential in a prestigious neighbourhood.
