Fox's Cottage is one of the earliest cottages in the hamlet of Green Street Green and was once the laundry to Fox's Brewery.  The property is located within walking distance of a Green Street's High Street and yet is just a few minutes walk to High Elms Country Park.  Local amenities include cafes and salons and a Waitrose supermarket. 

There are a good number of well regarded schools in the area.  Warren Road Primary School (Ofsted Outstanding) is just under a mile from the property.  Pratts Bottom, Farnborough and Tubbenden Primary Schools (each Ofsted Good) are also in close proximity and all a mere five minute drive.  Newstead Woods for Girls and St Olave's for Boys are two of the top performing State Grammar Schools and are both rated Outstanding by Ofsted.  

Chelsfield and Orpington Railway Station are within easy reach with Orpington serving a fast train to London Bridge in just 15 minutes.  There is easy access to Junction 4 of the M25 Motorway network with access links to the Dartford Tunnel, Channel Tunnel Terminus and ports, Heathrow and Gatwick International Airports, London and its suburbs. 

ACCOMMODATION

Fox's Cottage is a semi detached property that dates back to 1864 and comprises spacious and well proportioned accommodation measuring 1715 sq ft including a sizable walk in loft room. 

On the ground floor there are three reception rooms. A traditional sitting room sits to the front of the property boasting original beams, a pretty bay window, gas fire with stone surround and stairs to the first floor. To the rear of the property there is a bright sitting room with vaulted ceiling and glazed sliding doors leading to the rear garden. The dining room and kitchen sit centrally and are the natural hub of the home. The kitchen has a perfect mix of period features and contemporary style with a range of gloss units, integrated appliances, quartz worktops and breakfast bar in contrast to its gorgeous beams and the original burner that give a lovely nod to the history of this fantastic property. The family bathroom completes the ground floor accommodation. 

From the front sitting room a staircase leads to two double bedrooms, each with fitted wardrobes. From the family room, another staircase leads to the mezzanine level office and master bedroom which leads to the walk in loft. 

The loft room offers enormous potential to convert to an ensuite and dressing room for the master bedroom with the advantage of retaining the second loft for storage over the front of the property.
