Description
Offered to the market for the first time in approximately 60 years, this charming two-bedroom period home presents an exciting opportunity for those looking to renovate, improve and create a property to their own taste. Requiring modernisation throughout, the house is full of potential and would make an excellent purchase for first-time buyers, investors or anyone searching for a character home with scope to add value, complemented by a generous rear garden and far-reaching countryside views.
The accommodation is arranged over two floors and currently comprises a spacious reception/dining room extending to approximately 24'2, together with a separate kitchen to the rear. The existing layout offers clear potential for updating and reconfiguration, subject to the usual consents. Upstairs are two well-proportioned double bedrooms and a family bathroom.
To the rear, the property benefits from an approximately 53ft garden, providing a particularly attractive outdoor space and enjoying an impressive open outlook across the surrounding countryside. The elevated position gives the property a wonderful sense of openness and is a real feature of the home.
The location offers a rare opportunity to enjoy the benefits of a more open, semi-rural setting while remaining extremely well connected. Chelsfield Station is within approximately a 15-minute walk, with links into London Bridge within just 22 minutes, and direct rail services into London Bridge and the wider London network. The M25 is also only a short drive away. Green Street Green and Chelsfield are both within easy reach, offering a range of local shops, amenities, pubs and countryside walks, with the historic St Martin of Tours Church nearby.
The area is also particularly well served for schooling, with a number of highly regarded schools nearby including Green Street Green Primary School, Warren Road Primary School, St Olave's Grammar School for Boys and Newstead Wood School for Girls, alongside further schools throughout Green Street Green, Chelsfield and Orpington.
With its attractive period façade, generous garden, countryside outlook and excellent potential for improvement, this is a fantastic opportunity for a buyer looking to put their own stamp on a home in a well-connected yet peaceful location.
Internal viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the potential, setting and views on offer.
