4 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

Property Reference JD0226

With more and more families relocating to Orpington in order to benefit from its excellent local schools and commuter links into Central London, this extended semi-detached family home is sure to prove popular. 

Located on Pinewood Drive and fronting Green Street Green Common, this home is well located for Ofsted Outstanding Warren Road Primary School (0.2 miles), local shops on Crescent Way and bus links to Bromley and Orpington Town Centres from Sevenoaks Road. 

Approached via a pretty area of front garden and a driveway which takes you to the integral garage. 

The glazed porch leads to the front door which in turn takes you through to the entrance hall that feeds the ground floor accommodation and downstairs cloakroom. 

The hallway features stripped wood floor, down-lights and feature wallpaper to create a bright and inviting feel to the entrance. The stripped wood floor and decorative theme continues into the cloakroom which is located beneath the stairs. 

To the right you will find the through reception which has been opened up to create a free flowing space with a dual aspect. To the front you will find the living area with feature bay window overlooking the wooded green space opposite the house. The gas fire gives the room a cosy feel while the high ceilings help create the feeling of space. 

To the rear of the room you will find the dining area with sliding patio doors onto the patio and garden beyond. 

The kitchen was extended into the rear of the garage in 2005/2006 to provide a kitchen/ breakfast room that can be enjoyed by all the family. 

As well as having space for a breakfast table, the room features double doors onto the garden, ideal for entertaining and barbecuing in the Summer. 

The kitchen features traditional shaker style wood effect kitchen units with contrasting black granite counter tops and tiled splash back. There is an integrated dishwasher, plumbing for a washing and the kitchen sink is situated below the window which looks onto the garden. 

The garage can be accessed from the front and directly from the kitchen making it ideal place for storing an additional chest freezer and tumble drier. Like most garages it won't house a modern family car, however it provides easy accessible storage and space for bikes, pushchairs and general storage needs.

Upstairs the landing splits at the top to allow access to the extended portion of the house, housing the master bedroom and en-suite to the left and the traditional three bedrooms and family bathroom to the right. 

The master bedroom has a bright dual aspect with windows to the rear and side with additional natural light coming from the en-suite window to the front. 

The en-suite boasts generous proportions allowing for a modern four piece suite. There is a freestanding bath, shower cubicle with a rain forest shower head and a vanity unit which houses the wash handbasin and toilet cistern. 

The former master bedroom sits to the front of the home and draws natural light from the large bay window. The room is decorated in neutral tones with feature wallpaper to the chimney breast and sleeping area. The room also features fitted grey wardrobes which compliment the decor. 

To the rear you will find a further double bedroom with views over the garden and fitted storage either side of the chimney breast. 

The fourth bedroom is a large single with adequate space for a single bed, wardrobe and chest of drawers. While it would make a nice room for a young child it could also be utilised as a home office with the benefit of views over the garden. 

The family bathroom features a traditional three piece suite with the convenience of an electric shower over the bath. 

While the home has already been extended, it holds further scope to convert the garage and loft into habitable spaces (subject to receiving planning permission and building regulation sign off). 

To the rear of the property you will find a patio which stretches the width of the garden, the small curved retaining wall  steps up onto the lawned area of garden with planted borders to the right and a mature magnolia tree to the rear.
