Description

This four-bedroom detached bungalow presents a significant opportunity for renovation in a highly sought-after area, conveniently located near local amenities and excellent transport links. The property spans two floors and offers flexible living spaces, including an integral garage accessed from the entrance hallway, a reception room, and a dining room that features a fireplace and opens onto the rear garden through sliding doors. The kitchen is neutral and features fitted wall and base units, while three of the bedrooms include built-in wardrobes, with the principal bedroom benefiting from its own three-piece bathroom. A utility area with an additional WC offers added practicality. The sizeable fourth bedroom on the upper floor includes eaves storage and could be converted to include an en-suite bathroom, subject to planning permission. The outdoor space boasts a lovely South Westerly garden with both patio and lawn areas bordered by mature shrubs. There is ample parking available on the paved driveway at the front of the property. Located close to Locksbottom village's diverse amenities—including supermarkets, shops, restaurants, pubs, and Princess Royal University Hospital—this home also provides quick access to Orpington Station for swift connections into central London (approximately 18 minutes) as well as major roadways like the A21 and M25. With some updates and modifications, this property has immense potential for both personal enjoyment or investment returns.
