4 bed detached house for sale

Derry Downs, Orpington BR5

A deceptively spacious, extended detached family home, situated in this established residential road, and offered to the market with the added advantage of no onward chain. In need of some updating, the sizable accommodation includes a particularly spacious entrance hall, accessed from a porch, with three reception rooms, kitchen, and cloakroom all on the ground floor. To the first floor there are three good sized bedrooms - one with a dressing room or cot room, together with a bathroom and separate WC. Up another staircase, and you will find an additional bedroom, with en-suite shower room. You will see that the property offers tremendous potential, both to adapt the internal layout - by creating a larger kitchen, and also possibly by incorporating the bedroom and dressing/cot room - as well as extending to the side (STPP). The house is easily accessible to both Greenbelt countryside, as well as all the town's amenities, and railway station. Local schools, shops and bus routes are also all close by.
