Description

This extended three-bedroom detached home is situated on a desirable corner plot, boasting significant potential for further enhancements (subject to planning permission). With ample living space already in place, the property could be transformed to meet modern standards by expanding to the side or rear, following the examples set by nearby homes. The ground floor features a welcoming entrance porch and hallway, a cozy lounge, and an impressive kitchen/diner measuring 17'7 x 13'1, which includes a central island and flows seamlessly into a bright conservatory with bi-fold doors leading to the garden—perfect for enjoying indoor-outdoor living. Upstairs offers three bedrooms (two of which are generous doubles) along with a family bathroom. Externally, the large garden primarily consists of lawn space with a patio area for entertaining. A driveway and garage provide extra convenience at the rear of the property. Located near reputable local schools, shops, and excellent transport links via bus routes and mainline stations such as Orpington and St. Mary Cray, this property presents an exciting investment opportunity with room to add value through thoughtful renovations.
