2 Bed Semi-Detached House For Sale Roseberry Gardens, Orpington, BR6

Property Reference JD0226

Situated on a large 0.11 of an acre plot with a West facing rear aspect, lies this two bedroom semi-detached home.  The current owners have undertaken a programme of refurbishment works including new windows, full rewire, full internal redecoration and remodelling of the ground floor to include a new shower room.  The works have been undertaken with a future extension in mind and the house will be sold with the benefit of planning permission for a one/two storey extension to the side and rear. 

Roseberry Gardens is situated in a popular South Orpington location, close to favoured schools and Orpington Main Line Station. The houses were built on unusually large plots for the size of accommodation which has lead to most homes being extended over the years, to provide family sized accommodation. 

Approached via a full width brick paved driveway with additional gated parking to the side, with the rear garden backing neighbouring gardens on Tubbenden Lane. 

Beyond the front door, you enter a long hallway which has been created by the re-positioning of the kitchen. The hallway has been tastefully decorated with white walls and engineered oak flooring, with bespoke under stairs storage, large open storage area to the rear, utility area with space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble drier. The hallway takes you onto a door to the rear garden and the newly installed downstairs shower room which features statement herringbone tiling and a modern suite which give a timeless and luxurious feel to the room. 

The kitchen has been tastefully remodelled and re-positioned in the rear portion of the former living room in readiness of an extension. Current plans would see the kitchen accessible from the 6 metre rear extension, which would house the new living space. The planned works would see the existing living room become a snug or fourth bedroom with the convenience of the downstairs shower room. 

The kitchen features handleless white gloss units, Bosch appliances, feature tiled splash back and solid wood counter tops which compliment the engineered wood floor. 

The crisp white walls and light grey carpets continue up the stairs and into the landing and bedrooms. To the front there is a full width bedroom with two windows and a full wall of mirrored wardrobes. The former storage cupboard which sat over the stairs has been opened to provide a staircase to the loft space. While not a habitable space, the loft has a reinforced floor, plastered walls and features two rear facing Velux windows, carpet and plug sockets. 

The second double bedroom sits to the rear with views out over the extensive garden while the large window enjoys a sunny aspect which floods the room with afternoon sunlight. 

The bathroom has also been completely renovated with a modern three piece suite, shower over the bath, statement tiling, vanity unit and large ceramic sink that sits below a fitted mirror.

To the rear, you will find a large garden which  is mainly laid to lawn with two areas of hard standing, one accessible directly from the house and the other at the far end of the garden, which would prove useful for someone looking to build a garden office or similar.
