Detailed Description
Kenton are delighted to present this traditional 1930's detached bungalow, situated on the ever-coveted Goddington Lane and marketed for sale for the first time in circa 40 years.
Approached via an in an-out-driveway and being double bay-fronted, undoubtedly the property boasts kerb appeal and is of a particularly attractive style.
Internally, the property comprises; the aforementioned two bay-fronted rooms to the front, one of which is currently set up as a bedroom (featuring built-in wardrobes) with the other utilised as a dining room (but, conversely, would make an equally well-proportioned bedroom if preferred), an additional bedroom, a reception room to the rear overlooking the rear garden and featuring attractive original stained-glass windows, a fitted and ample-sized kitchen, as well as a contemporary shower room with separate W.C. Furthermore, there is also a handy and versatile "lean-to/utility area" space, which would make an ideal utility room for instance, and which also in turn leads to a garage. Notably, the hallway that serves all of the accommodation is also well-proportioned.
Externally, the aforementioned rear garden is secluded and well-stocked with mature trees (including an apple tree) and shrubs, and featuring both patio and traditional lawn areas. Additionally, there is also a further garden area to the front as well as the driveway referenced, which facilitates off-street parking for multiple vehicles.
Whilst objectively, some prospective buyers may wish to undertake a programme of modernisation, in our opinion the property has evidently been very well-maintained throughout and so is very much in liveable condition from the outset.
Also worthy of mention is the extension potential on offer (STPP, by default), with there many precedents amongst neighbouring and similar properties for various extensions.
Goddington Lane is undoubtedly one of south Orpington's most desired roads, boasting convenience yet tranquillity, with both general amenities but also for instance the ever-popular Goddington Park a mere short walk away. Orpington High Street is easily-accessible, featuring an array of; handy shops, restaurants, bars and leisure and beauty facilities. Chelsfield Station is also situated less than a mile away, providing direct and frequent services into central London. Furthermore, some of Orpington's most reputable schools are within close proximity, namely for instance the well-renowned St. Olaves Grammar School.
Marketed with the benefit of no onward chain also.
