Bladindon Drive, Bexley, DA5 3BP

This welcoming 1930s family home offers the perfect balance of period charm and modern living.  It features the distinctive bay fronted design, so typical of the era. It occupies a generous sized plot and it has been thoughtfully extended to the rear to provide a spacious and versatile living space.

Set back, the property immediately makes a good impression with its large driveway, carport, and detached garage, providing plenty of room for family cars or visiting guests. Once inside, the sense of space is clear. The front living room is a lovely place to relax, with its attractive bay window filling the room with light.  The rear extension has created a versatile area that works perfectly as a second sitting room which is open plan to an attractive dining space. This layout means you effectively have two lounges plus a dining area, making it ideal for family life and entertaining.

Large windows and doors at the back bring in plenty of natural light and provide lovely views over the garden, really connecting the indoors with the outdoors. The kitchen, positioned alongside, is also a very good size, with excellent storage and worktop space. The kitchen is well equipped and very functional, while at the same time it also offers great potential for further modernisation. There is also a spacious and contemporary family bathroom on the ground floor, again very typical of this design.

Upstairs, there are three double bedrooms, all generously sized and airy. The main bedroom comes with a wall of mirrored fitted wardrobes offering great practicality. The further two bedrooms are equally spacious, providing lots of flexibility whether for children or guests, while the large landing area could perhaps even double as nice a home office.

The garden is without doubt one of the highlights of this property. Facing south, it enjoys sunshine throughout the day and feels particularly private thanks to the open outlook behind. A large patio area provides the perfect spot for summer barbecues and evening meals outdoors, while the lawn stretches down towards an ornamental pond, which adds real character and charm. It’s the kind of garden that works just as well for hosting as it does for quiet relaxation. It also provides ample space and a safe environment for a growing family to really enjoy.

The location makes this home even more appealing. Situated on the borders of Bexley and Sidcup, Hurst Primary School is a short walk away, along with a wide variety of other high-performing schools for children of all ages. Albany Park Station is within easy walking distance, offering direct trains to London Bridge and Charing Cross, while the motorway network is very easily accessed for travel into central London or towards the Kent coast.

Leisure facilities are excellent too. Danson Park, with its open green spaces, gardens, boating lake, and sports facilities, is only a short walk away. For quieter moments, the nearby River Shuttle flows gently by providing a peaceful walking route and a lovely backdrop to the area.

Homes in this area are always sought after, and altogether, this is a place that offers character, space, future potential and a truly versatile layout, all in a very attractive and convenient location.
