Description

This property presents a promising investment opportunity, ideally located within walking distance of vibrant Orpington High Street, known for its diverse selection of shops, bars, cafes, and restaurants, as well as the picturesque Priory Gardens. The home features a bright and spacious layout that is currently functional but could benefit from some modernisation to maximise its full potential. With standout qualities like a south-east facing garden and off-street parking, this residence is well-equipped for family living. Importantly, there is significant scope for extension to the rear, side, and loft area (subject to planning permission), making it an attractive option for those looking to enhance the existing space. The ground floor includes a double-length reception room with dual aspects allowing natural light to fill the space, alongside a separate kitchen equipped with contemporary fittings yet offering room for improvement. A modern shower room adds convenience at this level. The upper floor hosts three bedrooms—two doubles plus a single/study—and a luxury bathroom featuring trendy fixtures in good condition. Accessible transport links via Orpington Station ensure easy commutes into Central London. Additionally, the surrounding area boasts highly regarded schools and ample green spaces perfect for outdoor activities. This property is not only comfortable as it stands but also offers extensive avenues for value enhancement through strategic renovations or extensions.
