Outside, the home benefits from a driveway providing off-road parking for up to three vehicles, together with a garage. The attractive planted front garden creates an inviting first impression, while the enclosed rear garden offers an ideal space for relaxing, entertaining or family activities.

The property has also been upgraded with a range of energy-efficient features, including solar panels and an electric vehicle charging point. Plumbing is already in place for a heat pump, with planning permission already granted, offering buyers the opportunity to further improve the home's efficiency.

Situated in the sought-after village of Downe, the property enjoys a peaceful setting while remaining conveniently close to local amenities, including a village shop, traditional pubs and well-regarded schools. Excellent road links provide easy access to Orpington, where a wider selection of shops, restaurants and leisure facilities can be found, along with mainline rail services offering direct connections into Central London. Surrounded by picturesque countryside and nearby walking routes, this home offers the perfect balance of village charm and modern convenience.

Buyer Process: Our customers use British Homebuyers to either purchase or assist in selling properties quickly and reliably. Therefore any new applicants to purchase are subject to vetting to ensure they meet strict criteria.

Exclusivity Fee:
You can secure the purchase by paying an exclusivity fee of £2,000. This grants the buyer exclusive rights to proceed with the purchase for the duration of the conveyancing process, during which time the seller agrees to remove the property from the market and not negotiate with other parties.

The exclusivity fee is returned to the buyer upon successful completion of the purchase.

A processing fee of £200 is required in order to draw up an exclusive legally binding contract between the buyer and seller. This agreement sets out the terms of exclusivity and seller commitment but does not constitute an exchange of contracts.

This arrangement provides buyers with reassurance that the property is secured exclusively for them, reducing the risk of gazumping and unnecessary aborted costs.
