3 bed end terrace house for sale

Royal Close, Locksbottom, Orpington BR6

Sought-after, cottage-style, end-of-terrace, corner plot, in a quiet close. With a garage and off-road parking, you are close to shops, quality schools, the M25, park and woodland. Exclusive restaurants and pubs, a supermarket and a swing park are within a short walking distance, as is the Princess Royal Hospital and multi-route bus stops.

Within a 15-minute walk of Farnborough or Darrick Wood Schools, this delightful house is perfectly suited for either a young family or an older couple wanting to downsize (but still with ample room for the grandchildren!). The property is accessible for couples commuting into London; Orpington Station is a 5-minute car ride or 10 minutes on the bus. With all the local amenities only a short walk away, this is a must-see family property.

On the doorstep, Tugmutton Common aside, there is extensive walking in High Elms Country Park and an 18-hole golf course within a 5-minute drive.

The property's moderate (4.4m x 9.7m) but welcoming garden (complete with powered bar/office!) is accessed through double French doors from a spacious, comfortable, family lounge. This is complete with a dining area, storage and shelving. Passing through the hallway, there is storage space and the downstairs WC. The modern kitchen is set up for easy food preparation, with plenty of cupboards, worktops and utilities.

On the upper level, there are three bedrooms: Two doubles and a single. The master has fitted wardrobes and an en suite bathroom, a landing with further cupboard space and a modern family bathroom. Further storage space is available in the part-boarded, head-height, loft space.

Locksbottom is centred on a parade of shops on the western end of Crofton Road, running from the junction with Farnborough Common to Tugmutton Common. To the west lies Keston Park and to the north Farnborough Park, both of which are exclusive gated communities. A supermarket backs onto the Princess Royal Hospital. There are also three pubs in the area - the Black Horse, the British Queen, and Ye Olde Whyte Lion. The church is St. Michael's and All Angels Roman Catholic Church, and was built between 1961 and 1964 by Henry Bingham Towner of load-bearing brickwork, laid in English bond, around a steel frame.
