Description

This three-bedroom semi-detached home offers a wealth of potential for renovation and expansion, situated conveniently close to St. Mary Cray railway station and local amenities. The property is presented with no onward chain, making it an attractive prospect for investors or those looking to create their dream home. The layout includes an entrance porch leading to a hallway, a spacious lounge filled with natural light, and an expansive kitchen/diner at the rear of the property that provides access to the garden. The first floor accommodates three good-sized bedrooms, along with a family bathroom and a separate WC. The generous rear garden is primarily laid to lawn with a sizable patio area, ideal for outdoor gatherings. There is also potential (subject to planning permission) for extensions both at the rear and into the loft space, as demonstrated by similar renovations in the neighborhood. Furthermore, on-street parking is available, with options to create a private driveway (STPP) at the front. Located on Whippendell Way, this property benefits from proximity to local schools, shops, bus routes, and excellent transport links via St. Mary Cray station. This home presents not just as a living space but as an investment opportunity ripe for enhancement.
