Description

This chain-free bungalow presents an appealing opportunity for cash buyers looking to invest in a property with significant renovation and modernization potential. The home boasts gardens and off-road parking, making it suitable for those who value outdoor space. Notably, spray foam insulation has been installed in the loft, which may influence mortgage options and suggests that careful consideration is needed by prospective buyers. The front garden features established shrubs and hedges, while the rear garden requires some care and attention to restore it to its full potential. Internally, the accommodation includes a welcoming entrance porch leading into a hallway with loft access. The lounge benefits from a bright bay window and a fireplace, providing a focal point for future improvements. The kitchen is functional yet dated, featuring fitted units and ample space for appliances, alongside a pantry for additional storage. A lean-to conservatory offers direct access to the rear garden, presenting an opportunity to enhance the living space further. Two bedrooms are included; one with fitted wardrobes and views over the rear garden, while the second enjoys front-facing light. The bathroom is equipped with essential fittings but could benefit from modernisation to meet contemporary standards. Located close to Orpington High Street and public transport links at both Orpington and St Mary Cray stations, this property is perfectly positioned for convenient living while offering exciting investment prospects.
