Description

This detached family home, featuring four bedrooms and two spacious reception areas, presents a noteworthy opportunity for renovation and investment. With flexible living arrangements, one of the bedrooms can easily serve as a dressing room or study, catering to various family needs. On the ground floor, you'll find a well-positioned family bathroom and an L-shaped kitchen that opens up possibilities for modern upgrades. The kitchen's generous layout offers ample room for cooking and socializing, while the integral garage and off-street parking enhance convenience for families with multiple vehicles. The property is located in a desirable area that balances tranquility with accessibility. It is in close proximity to Dartford Heath, providing a perfect backdrop for outdoor activities and leisure pursuits. Families will appreciate being situated within the catchment area of several highly regarded local schools. Outdoors, the sizeable mature garden offers a potential canvas for landscaping or gardening enthusiasts. With plenty of space for children to play or adults to relax, it could be transformed into an exceptional outdoor living space. The property boasts several key features that highlight its potential: a north-east facing rear garden ideal for morning light, gas and electric meters conveniently located under the stairs, and generous storage options including a boarded loft accessible via ladder. Additionally, probate has already been granted, streamlining the purchasing process. In terms of layout, the entrance hall welcomes you with parquet flooring and access to an under-stairs storage cupboard. The first reception room features a bay window framing views of the front garden and includes a decorative fireplace. In contrast, the second reception room opens directly onto the rear garden through double-glazed doors. Upstairs, there are four well-proportioned bedrooms—all with fitted carpeting—and an additional shower room designed with corner fixtures. The presence of eaves storage in one bedroom further enhances organization options. For investors or those looking to create their dream home through renovations, this property holds significant promise thanks to its solid structure and advantageous location.
