Description

This substantial detached four-bedroom home presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment, as it comes on the market for the first time in over 40 years. Set on an expansive plot of approximately one-third of an acre in the desirable village of St Mary's Platt, this property offers ample space both indoors and outdoors, making it an ideal canvas for modern family life. Upon entering, you're welcomed into a bright entrance hall that sets the tone for the rest of the home. To your right is the kitchen/breakfast room. While it may be dated, this space features a functional layout with a good amount of cabinetry and countertop space, supplemented by three windows that let in plenty of natural light. A large utility room adjacent to the kitchen provides practical access to the east-facing rear garden, which is well-established with mature trees and a spacious patio area—perfect for outdoor gatherings. The lounge serves as a generous living area characterized by a brick fireplace with a log burner, creating a cozy atmosphere. Double doors connect to a dining room that features patio doors opening onto the front garden—a lovely spot to enjoy morning sun or entertain guests. An additional reception room currently used as an extra bedroom offers flexibility; it could easily be transformed into a home office or playroom, also benefiting from direct access to the rear garden. Upstairs houses four double bedrooms, including a master suite at one end complete with an en-suite shower room and private roof terrace offering views over the surrounding village and North Downs. The other three bedrooms have built-in storage solutions to maximize space efficiency. Completing this level is a family bathroom, providing essential amenities for household needs. Located in St Mary's Platt—a sought-after community known for its vibrant local culture—the property is close to essential amenities like parish services, popular pubs, and schools. The nearby larger village of Borough Green has shops and facilities along with mainline train services to London Bridge, Charing Cross, and Victoria. Additionally, convenient road links are available via Wrotham Heath leading to major motorways (M20/M26), enhancing accessibility. Offered with no onward chain and available for viewing by appointment only, this property not only presents immediate living potential but also allows for significant renovation possibilities that can enhance value over time.
