Description

This detached Wates Dormy property has been cherished as a family home since 1982 and is now available for new owners to add their personal touch. Located on Lovibonds Avenue, the home provides an excellent foundation with flexible living space over two levels. There is significant potential for modernization and expansion, subject to planning consent. The ground floor features a spacious living room and a separate dining area, both adorned with classic parquet flooring, along with an office or family room that could be transformed to suit various needs. The front of the house contains a room currently serving as the master bedroom, complete with its own three-piece shower room. At the rear, the fitted kitchen offers direct access to the outdoor space. Upstairs are two generously sized double bedrooms equipped with fitted wardrobes, plus a family bathroom designed for convenience. The rear garden is predominantly lawned with a paved seating area, providing a private oasis surrounded by mature trees and shrubs—a perfect spot for relaxation. Additional amenities include off-road parking on the driveway and access to a detached garage. Situated in close proximity to Darrick Wood schools and Newstead Wood school, as well as local shops and restaurants in Locksbottom, this property also benefits from easy transport links to Orpington station which offers quick connections to London. With its prime location and renovation potential, this property represents an exciting opportunity for both families and investors alike.
