Description
With Kelsey Park and popular shops by the Park Langley roundabout very much "on the doorstep", this CHAIN FREE age restricted flat, for residents over 60, is on the second floor (no floor above at this end of building) with LIFT ACCESS. Positioned at the front of the block giving a sunny westerly aspect in the sitting room and bedroom but, unlike many, this property also has south facing double glazed windows in the living room and kitchen, providing plenty of natural light. The entrance hall has an entryphone/intercom for communication with the resident house manager (weekday mornings) or emergency monitoring. The flat is priced to reflect scope for updating as we expect buyers may wish to improve the kitchen and bathroom as well as redecorate, giving them the opportunity to make personal choices to their own tastes.
Conveniently located for the Tesco Express by the Park Langley roundabout and popular shops on Wickham Road providing a chemist, newsagent, delicatessen, coffee shops, bakery and off licence with post office. Bus route 162 runs along Wickham Road for Bromley, Chislehurst and Beckenham High Street. Kelsey Park provides an attractive walk to Beckenham High Street, about three quarters of a mile away and from Beckenham Junction there are trains to Victoria and The City as well as trams to Croydon and Wimbledon.

104 Wickham Road, Beckenham, BR3 6QH
Proctors is an independent network of estate agents comprising five separate businesses trading as proctors. We have been at the heart of the local property scene for decades and combine a lifetime of knowledge with the very latest technology and marketing techniques, to give you an unrivalled service. We won't stop until you get the home, tenant or buyer you're looking for.
If you're thinking of buying, selling or letting your home in Beckenham, Park Langley or West Wickham, or you're moving in Bromley, Shirley, Crystal Palace or Petts Wood in Orpington, Proctors estate agents can help you. As an independent network of estate agents we provide:
- Sales
- Lettings
- New Homes
- Land and Development
Not just local branches, local people too
Proctors is much more than a full service estate agency; we're passionate about property and the community in which we live.
Between the London Borough of Bromley and Shirley we've got the best shops, schools, parks and cafés, and a whole bunch of charm and vibrancy. South East London is a brilliant place to be - even if we do say so ourselves - and we're keen to keep it that way. That's why at Proctors we invest in the local community - sponsoring sports clubs, charities, school fetes and local initiatives.
We live, work and breathe London life. We eat at local restaurants, we use the public transport, our kids go to the local schools - and our knowledge is here for you. Because we know Bromley and South East London like the back of our hand, we can recommend the ideal place for you to live. To find out more, why not check out our blog here.
Experts in our area
All Proctors staff are highly experienced estate agents, many of whom have been with us for years. Every Proctors office is run by a knowledgeable Partner, committed to making sure you get the best customer service. In fact, over 70 years after George Proctor founded the company, some branches are still run by members of the Proctor family.
Over 70 years of service
We've seen a lot since the doors of the very first branch opened in 1946, but each and every time we help you sell your property or find your dream home it remains just as special. We're looking forward to many more years, delivering the same high quality service we've become known for.
A personal approach
Proctors branches span a wide area of South East London, including Beckenham, Bromley, West Wickham, Park Langley, Petts Wood through to Shirley in Croydon. Proctors is big enough to offer the resources of a large estate agency but small enough to care. You can be sure of a personal touch, plus the support of our network of agents. And because our agents aren't incentivised on individual commission, you can be sure they are dedicated to getting the job done with your best interests at heart. It's no surprise our customers return to us again and again.
Estate Agents covering; Beckenham, Bromley, Park Langley, Petts Wood in Orpington, Shirley in Croydon and West Wickham.
