Bungalow for sale in Thorpe Close, Orpington BR6

This detached bungalow is situated in a lovely quiet cul de sac, yet it is only a five minute walk (less than quarter of a mile) to Orpington station.

The size of accommodation and location makes this ideal for families, as well as people wanting to move down to one level.
The property has three good size bedrooms, a large reception room, kitchen and bathroom and is offered with no onward chain.
Enormous potential exists to extend into the sizeable loft space (subject to planning permission) and convert this to a large family home, as many others in the road have already done.
It sits on a good size plot with a large frontage and a wide garden to the rear, and also comes with a driveway for off street parking and a detached garage. The property has central heating but will require a full refurbishment.
