Set in a plot of approximately 4 acres, this unique property is approached via a long driveway and offers a welcome opportunity to escape from the everyday hustle and bustle. This sizeable plot offers the potential to extend and re-model to create a stunning home (STPP) close to the heart of historic Downe Village.

This unique property comprises a bright, spacious, triple aspect living/dining room with wood block flooring and full height windows flooding the room with natural light, a kitchen/breakfast room, a large conservatory and a three piece shower room to the ground floor. To the first floor are four bedrooms, an additional room leading into the master bedroom which would make an ideal dressing room/en-suite plus a family bathroom.

The centre of Downe Village, protected by a conservation order, offers the benefits of rural living with the convenience of shops and restaurants in Locksbottom and train links into London from Orpington and Bromley South stations which are accessible via bus from the village centre. Also close by are woodland walks at High Elms Country Park plus West Kent and High Elms golf courses.
