This sociable space enjoys good natural light and features a well appointed fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, creating a seamless flow for both everyday living and entertaining. There are two well proportioned double bedrooms, each offering comfortable accommodation, along with a modern shower room finished in a contemporary style.

Ideally positioned for easy access to Dartford town centre, the property is within close reach of a wide range of local amenities including shops, leisure facilities, Central Park and the Orchard Theatre, together with excellent transport links via Dartford mainline station providing regular services into London, as well as swift road access to the A2, M25 and Dartford Crossing. Bluewater Shopping Centre and Ebbsfleet International are also easily accessible, enhancing the appeal for both commuters and downsizers alike.
The location is also well served by a variety of highly regarded schools, including The Gateway Primary Academy, Leigh Academy Dartford and St Anselm’s Catholic Primary School, along with excellent secondary options such as Dartford Grammar School and Dartford Grammar School for Girls, both of which are particularly sought after.
Offered to the market with no forward chain and vacant possession, Oakleigh Lodge presents an excellent opportunity for buyers seeking a low maintenance, modern home in a well-connected and established location.
Location
Dartford is the principal town in the borough of Dartford and is home to Dartford F.C. It is situated in the northwest corner of Kent, 16 miles (26 km) east south-east of Central London. Dartford became a market town in medieval times and, although today it is principally a commuter town for Greater London, it has a long history of religious, industrial and cultural importance and has an important rail hub. The main through-road avoids the town itself and the town centre offers many facilities including Prospect Place Retail Park, the Orchard theatre, library, museum, central park, weekly markets and an array of local shops and public houses. Dartford has plenty of schools catering from reception to year 13 which includes four grammar schools at secondary level. The town centre is situated in a valley through which the River Darent flows, and where the old road from London to Dover crossed: hence the name, from Darent + ford. Dartford also has a mainline railway station (truncated)
