This 1 bedroom mews apartment will make a great home if you are looking to step onto the property ladder or perfect if you are downsizing.
In having the garage (which can be accessed from the ground floor of the apartment) this will always guarantee you are able to park the car every time you drive back to the property. If you did not need to put the car under cover then this area could make a handy storage space.
The lounge/diner is a good comfortable size and will make a good area to entertain friends and family when they come over to visit.
St Mary Cray Station is conveniently located within a 15-minute walk, offering direct trains to London Victoria in under 30 minutes, as well as to London Blackfriars.
Orpington Station is within 3 miles, with fast trains to London Bridge in just 15 minutes. St Mary Cray Station is particularly handy for local nights out in Bromley and Beckenham. It's also great for quick shopping trips to The Glades Shopping Centre in Bromley.
For drivers, there is easy access to both the M20 and M25 motorways. For non-drivers there are several bus routes that connect to nearby towns and London night bus N199 is very handy.
St Mary Cray offers a wealth of amenities within walking distance, including gyms, post office, retail stores, supermarkets, pharmacies, opticians, cafes, coffee shops, restaurants and takeaways.
The owner quote
"I have called this charming property home for over a decade. The moment I stepped in, I was captivated by the high ceilings and the serene, cosy atmosphere tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the main road. Its location has been incredibly convenient, with easy access to local amenities and excellent transport links.
This mews has been an ideal first home, filled with cherished memories of friend/family gatherings and tranquil moments in the garden, often accompanied by delightful wildlife.
Whether you're a first-time buyer, a young professional or someone looking to downsize, this property offers the perfect blend of comfort and convenience.
My property is Freehold however the courtyard is a shared freehold with 7 other properties with a maintenance fee of £30 per calendar month for live in residents and £50 for residents renting out. The maintenance fee covers building insurance only (not content), general upkeep of the 8 properties like external painting and gutter cleaning. There should be yearly meetings with all the residents as St Mary Cray Residential Company is run by the 8 individual properties and not an agent so if there are any issues then it is raised then or email dropped to all residents for discussion."
