This extended four-bedroom semi-detached family home on Cathcart Drive combines generous living space with excellent schooling and commuter links. The large two-storey extension creates an open-plan kitchen/dining area with skylights and quartz surfaces, plus two further reception rooms and a utility room connected to the integral garage — plenty of space for family life and entertaining.
Upstairs there are four double bedrooms, including a master with dressing area and en suite, and a second family bathroom. The house backs onto pleasant woodland, offering treetop views and a peaceful setting while remaining under 0.5 mile from Orpington station (Zone 6) for frequent fast services into central London — a real plus for commuters.
Families will value the catchment for Crofton Infant and Junior Schools and proximity to Darrick Wood, with selective options such as Newstead Wood and St Olave’s also within reach. The property sits on a decent plot with a spacious rear garden, driveway and integral garage, and is sold freehold.
Practical points to note: the house is a post‑war build (average overall size) and council tax is above average. Mobile signal is average despite fast broadband. These are balanced by low local crime and a very affluent area, making this a comfortable, well‑connected family home with scope to personalise.
