Summary - Oak House, Red Oak Close BR6 8HH
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Large three-bedroom semi in Locksbottom — great schools and easy commuting.
Three sizeable bedrooms, 1,335 sq ft of living space
Set on a quiet close in sought-after Locksbottom, this substantial three-bedroom semi-detached home offers 1,335 sq ft of flexible family space and easy access to Orpington station (approx. 0.9 miles). The ground floor flows well for daily family life: a welcoming reception room with a feature fireplace leads through to an open-plan lounge and dining area, with a fitted kitchen, utility room and handy downstairs WC. A versatile snug/office provides room for a home workspace.
Upstairs are three sizeable bedrooms and a single family bathroom — comfortable for a young family but only one bathroom may feel limiting for larger households. Outside, a private driveway, attached garage and a good-sized rear garden with patio, greenhouse and shed deliver useful storage and outdoor living space.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, mains gas central heating, double glazing and fast broadband/mobile coverage. The location is a major draw for families: strong local schools (including Darrick Wood School and nearby grammar options), low local crime and ready access to shops, parks and commuter routes to central London.
Notable considerations: parts of the interior show dated finishes and worn carpets and will benefit from cosmetic modernisation. Energy rating D, council tax in Band E (above average), and a medium local flood risk are material facts to factor into a buyer’s decision. Overall, this is a roomy, well-located family home with good renovation potential close to excellent schools and transport links.
