Description

This three-bedroom semi-detached house presents a substantial opportunity for renovation in a sought-after residential area. Situated conveniently near local amenities, schools, and transport links, this property boasts spacious rooms and an impressive plot that invites creative remodelling. While the home is in need of considerable modernization, it provides a blank canvas for buyers eager to invest in a project or customize their living space to personal tastes (subject to planning permission). The ground floor comprises a functional entrance porch leading into a central hallway. The front reception room is large and bright with a big window overlooking the garden, creating an inviting atmosphere. A separate dining room adds flexibility as a second living area, while the kitchen benefits from views of the expansive rear garden. A side lobby offers access to practical storage options and the outdoor space. On the first floor, you’ll find three bedrooms: two generous doubles and a good-sized single, complemented by a family bathroom that could be updated to enhance functionality. Outdoors, the property features an extensive 83ft garden ripe for landscaping or potential extensions (subject to necessary permissions). Additionally, there is a significant detached garage at the back of the plot alongside extra brick-built storage areas. The front garden also holds potential for off-street parking solutions (again subject to consents). With its proximity to Orpington High Street and nearby train stations offering quick access into London Bridge and Victoria, along with high-quality schools such as St. Olave's and Newstead Wood grammar schools just around the corner, this location is particularly appealing to families.
