About
** guide price £825,000 to £850,000 ** This attractive detached family home combines timeless Tudor-style character with light, comfortable living space, set within one of Orpington's well-established and highly convenient residential roads.
Offering around 1,330 sq ft of accommodation, along with a wonderfully long rear garden, the property presents an excellent opportunity for buyers seeking character, space and location.
The property's distinctive mock-Tudor façade, with its charming leaded and diamond-pane windows, sets an immediate tone of character, while inside the accommodation has been thoughtfully maintained throughout.
A welcoming entrance hall leads through to a generous reception room, where a feature brick fireplace creates a lovely focal point, complemented by an attractive arched leaded window.
A separate dining room, again with its own fireplace and French doors opening onto the garden, offers a further reception space ideal for entertaining or family meals.
The kitchen/breakfast room is well-appointed with shaker-style cabinetry, integrated appliances and ample worktop space, overlooking the garden through leaded windows.
A useful study/office provides an ideal space for home working, while a separate utility room and a well-appointed downstairs shower room add valuable practicality for a busy family household.
Upstairs, the property offers three bedrooms, including a well-proportioned principal bedroom with extensive fitted wardrobe storage.
The family bathroom has been tastefully finished with a freestanding-style bath and contemporary tiling, while a separate WC adds further convenience for a growing family.
Externally, the rear garden is a particular highlight, extending to approximately 79ft in length and thoughtfully arranged into a series of distinct areas, a paved patio ideal for outdoor dining, a well-maintained lawn, a further gravelled seating area, and a garden shed for additional storage, all enclosed for privacy.
To the front, off-street parking is provided via the driveway.
Lancing Road enjoys a superb location within easy walking distance of Orpington town centre, with Orpington High Street just 0.2 miles away and the mainline station approximately 0.5 miles away, providing fast and frequent services into London Bridge, Cannon Street, Charing Cross and Victoria.
The property also falls within excellent reach of highly regarded schooling, with St Olave's Grammar School and Newstead Wood School for girls both within easy walking distance, along with a number of other excellent schools nearby, making this an ideal choice for families.
