Description

This semi-detached Edwardian family home presents an excellent opportunity for both families and investors, situated on the desirable Tower Road in Orpington. With four bedrooms, this property offers a spacious layout that is well-suited to growing households while also providing significant potential for renovation and expansion. Upon entering, you are welcomed by a sizable hallway that leads to a generous 17-foot reception room, characterized by a charming bay window that invites natural light into the space. This room effortlessly connects to a separate dining area, making it ideal for gatherings or family meals. The kitchen, while functional with ample storage and appliances, offers exciting possibilities for reconfiguration or extension (subject to planning permission). Additionally, a convenient downstairs shower room enhances the usability of the ground floor. The first floor features three well-proportioned bedrooms, providing comfortable accommodations for various needs. The master bedroom includes an en suite bathroom, offering privacy and convenience. A tiled family bathroom serves this level as well. Ascending to the second floor reveals an additional bedroom that could serve as a teenager's retreat or workspace. Outside, the southwest-facing rear garden provides a pleasing outdoor environment with its patio area suitable for al fresco dining, mature shrub borders, and a maintained lawn. Off-street parking is available on the sizeable driveway at the front of the house, along with a garage located at the rear. With its original Edwardian features and considerable scope for further enhancement, this property allows buyers to customize their living space according to personal taste while simultaneously increasing value. Located just a short walk from Orpington train station—offering direct services to London Bridge in around 15 minutes—and close proximity to major roadways like the M25/A21, commuting is made convenient. The area is also home to highly regarded schools such as Crofton Infants & Junior and Warren Road Primary School (both rated Outstanding by Ofsted) as well as sought-after grammar schools like St Olave’s and Newstead Woods. This property not only embodies traditional charm but also represents a solid investment in an area known for its growth and strong community appeal.
