Set on a quiet Chislehurst street, this extended three-bedroom semi-detached home offers ready-to-live-in space and practical family layout. A bay-fronted living room and a stylish kitchen/breakfast room with glazed doors provide bright, connected ground-floor living leading onto a low-maintenance rear garden with a powered outbuilding ideal for a home office, playroom or gym.
The property sits on a wider-than-average plot with an extra-wide side driveway and off-street parking for two cars — access is direct from the road rather than a shared drive. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a luxury bathroom, plus loft access for additional storage. Double glazing was installed after 2002 and mains gas central heating provides reliable warmth.
This home is well placed for local amenities and good-rated schools, with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband making it well suited to families and professionals who need space and connectivity. The area is very low crime and very affluent, adding to the overall appeal.
Practical points to note: the house dates from the mid-20th century and the cavity walls are presumed uninsulated, so buyers should allow for potential energy-efficiency improvements. Council Tax sits above average (Band E), there is a single main bathroom, and buyers seeking a fully modernised, zero-maintenance property may wish to factor modest updating into their plans.
