About this property

  • Approximately 818 sq ft of accommodation

  • Impressive 27ft open-plan kitchen / reception / dining room

  • Private Balcony

A spacious and well-presented 818 sq ft top-floor, dual-aspect apartment with private balcony, covered gated parking and excellent future potential, ideally located just 0.5 miles from St Mary Cray Station.

Set within a well-maintained modern development, this bright and generously proportioned two-bedroom apartment is perfectly suited to first-time buyers and young families, offering a rare combination of internal space, natural light and long-term flexibility.
Occupying a top-floor position at the end of the building, the apartment enjoys a dual-aspect layout, allowing excellent natural light throughout the day and a greater sense of privacy. The building is low-rise with no lift, helping to keep ongoing service charges more affordable.

The heart of the home is the impressive 27 ft open-plan kitchen, reception and dining space, ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The modern Paula Rosa kitchen features white gloss units, integrated appliances and generous worktop space. The reception area provides direct access to the private balcony, which is also accessible from the principal bedroom.
The property offers two excellent-sized double bedrooms, both larger than typically found in similar flats:
• Principal bedroom (approx. 4.76m x 3.10m) with balcony access and two storage areas, offering potential to create an en-suite (STPP)
• Bedroom two (approx. 4.22m x 3.31m) with two tall windows, ideal as a second bedroom, home office or nursery
The accommodation is completed by a contemporary shower room, together with dual-zone heating controls and whole-house ventilation system, enhancing comfort and energy efficiency.

A standout feature of this property is the loft space (over 27 ft), offering excellent storage and clear potential for conversion (STPP), further increasing the long-term value of the home.
Residents benefit from landscaped communal grounds, including a private residents’ park and children’s play area, along with a secure gated parking area. A convenient pedestrian pathway provides easy access to Nugent Shopping Park and the station, with regular services to London Victoria and Blackfriars.
Properties of this size, layout and future potential are rarely available at this price point - early viewing is highly recommended.
