Summary - 20 IRVING WAY SWANLEY BR8 7EP
5 bed 2 bath Semi-Detached
Blank-canvas family home near fast Swanley rail links and large private garden.
Five bedrooms and two bathrooms across multiple floors
Set in a quiet close within easy walking distance of Swanley station, this five-bedroom, two-bathroom semi-detached house offers substantial living space across multiple floors and a large plot with garage and driveway. The layout includes two reception rooms and a kitchen/breakfast room, giving flexibility for family life or home working. The rear garden backs onto trees, providing privacy and a calm outlook.
The property is sold as a blank canvas and requires renovation throughout; cosmetic and functional updates are needed to modernise kitchens, bathrooms and internal finishes. Double glazing is present but installation date is unknown, and the house retains post-war construction details typical of the 1950–66 era. Heating is mains gas via boiler and radiators.
For families and buyers seeking space and commuter convenience, the location is a key advantage — fast rail services to central London and easy road links to the M25, M20 and A20. Several well-regarded primary and secondary schools are nearby, making this practical for school runs. The large garden, workshop/office and garage add valuable outdoor and storage options.
Buyers should factor in renovation costs and a higher-than-average council tax charge when budgeting. The property is freehold, has no reported flood risk, and sits in an area with average crime and deprivation indicators. With investment and modernisation, the house offers clear potential to create a comfortable family home or a rental asset close to good transport links.
