Long Acre, Orpington

A sizable three bedroom detached house situated in this very pleasant cul-de-sac just off Chelsfield Lane, and close to Greenbelt Countryside. Buses stop just at the end of the road and serve Orpington High Street and the mainline station, and both are also just a short car journey away. The property is also within walking distance of Goddington Park, and therefore accessible to St Olaves Grammar School For Boys. Other popular schools are also nearby. Accommodation includes a welcoming entrance hallway with downstairs shower room, a 21'11" x 14'10" max lounge and dining area opening onto a large garden reception room, and kitchen to the ground floor. Upstairs, off the bright, spacious landing, there are three particularly good sized bedrooms, together with family bathroom. Outside, there is a private driveway with ample parking, an attached tandem length garage and a much wider-than-average (nearly 70'0" x 50'0") South facing rear garden- ideal for relaxing or entertaining. It is worth noting that the sellers advise that the property was re-wired during the last couple of years. Having been a loving family home to the same owners since being built, the property has been well maintained, and now offers great potential for the next family with tremendous possibilities to alter the current layout of accommodation and garage, and also to extend (subject to planning permission). Offered to the market "chain-free", viewing comes highly recommended.
