Nestled in a quiet cul-de-sac, this property is conveniently located near various local amenities, including St Mary Cray Station, Nugent Park Shopping Centre, and several schools, making it an appealing choice for families and commuters alike. The exterior features a front garden predominantly laid to lawn, while the rear garden boasts a large pond surrounded by mature shrubs and bushes, adding to the property’s charm. A detached garage is accessible via a shared driveway, providing additional storage or workshop potential. Inside, the layout includes an entrance hall that leads to the main living areas.
