Oldfield Road, Bickley, Kent, BR1

Set on prestigious Oldfield Road near Bickley station this is an impressive first floor apartment with the glorious features inherent in a beautiful period building (think high ceilings/elegant proportions/deep coving/skirtings) mixed with modern elements. Two double bedrooms, large sitting room, dining hall and luxurious bathroom. Don’t hesitate to view this.

Situated in an attractive setting 0.5 miles/11 min walk to Bickley station and 0.9 miles/20 min walk to Chislehurst station, this is a handsome building and the apartment comes with two parking spaces. If schools are of interest Bromley High School is at the end of the road and Bickley Park School is 0.7 miles/16 min walk.

On entry to the apartment you will immediately appreciate the features including the tall double glazed sash windows, original picture rails, deep coving, deep skirting, wide architraves and the elegant proportions due to the high ceilings.

A dining area has been cleverly created off the reception hall making excellent use of this space where there is ample room for furniture including a dining suite. Depending on the buyer’s needs, this is a very flexible area so could easily be used for example as a study/work from home space, reading nook, etc. Double height integral cupboards are a feature here providing great storage space, so important in a flat.

The sitting room is a large 287 sq ft. with engineered wood flooring, inset shelving and a marble and cast-iron fireplace which takes centre stage.

A well fitted kitchen has an extensive range of gloss soft curve wall and floor units with a subway tile splash back and the butchers block style wood surface extends to create a breakfast bar. The room is finished with large format floor tiles and a Venetian blind which will remain (along with all other window dressings). A separated utility area sits behind the kitchen.

Bedroom one features a marble surround fireplace, pretty accent wallpaper and there is a built-in wardrobe. Bedroom two is a good size and can be accessed from the hall and sitting room.

The bathroom is impressive in size and presentation. There is a gorgeous freestanding curved roll top bath, a separate shower cubicle, a round basin set atop a patterned tile surface, a range of in-built wall storage cupboards, feature wallpaper accenting one wall and all this is set around a marble and cast-iron fireplace. Two windows bring in fresh air and light.

Full appreciation of this lovely flat can only be gained on viewing.

Material information: 1) Planning permission has been granted for the construction of a two-storey building for two flats off-set to the right on the land in front of Highlands and for construction of a detached house on the land to the right-hand side of Highlands. The work is likely to commence in 2025 and will also include a replacement of the vehicular accessway from Oldfield Road; new car parking spaces, cycle and refuse stores and re landscaping at the front. The planning application can be viewed on the Bromley borough planning portal using reference number 24/00812/FULL1 (once the work is completed there will be two parking spaces available for this flat). 2) Separately, work has been planned to start in April 2025 for the communal spaces including the addition of emergency lighting, upgrading the main front door and internal doors to fire doors and redecorating the stairwell. Payment for this has already been allocated from the existing service charge fund. 3) There was subsidence to the right side of the building which was underpinned in 2024 and a guarantee certificate is available.
