GUIDE PRICE £425,000 - £450,000
Set back from the roadside and perfectly placed for the convenience of Longfield village, this two bedroom detached bungalow offers an appealing combination of comfort, space and potential. A long private driveway leads you up to the property, creating an immediate sense of privacy, while established front gardens frame the approach. Once inside, an entrance hall guides you through the accommodation, where a sitting room sits to the front, complemented by a separate dining room that adjoins the kitchen. The kitchen itself provides ample workspace and storage, with direct access to the rear garden.
Both bedrooms are well proportioned, with the rear bedroom opening into a conservatory that draws in natural light and creates an inviting spot to sit and enjoy views across the garden. The bathroom includes both a bath and separate shower, offering flexibility for day-to-day living. To the rear, a generous garden stretches approximately 46ft and backs directly onto open fields, giving the home an unexpectedly rural feel despite its village location. The detached garage provides further practicality, paired with the long driveway that accommodates multiple vehicles.
This home is equipped with gas central heating and double glazing and presents an excellent opportunity for a buyer wishing to update and modernise to their own taste. Its position makes everyday life effortless, with Longfield’s shops, including Waitrose, medical facilities, pharmacy and mainline station all close by. Families will appreciate access to a choice of primary, academy and grammar schools, while commuters benefit from links to London Victoria and convenient road connections to the A2 and M25.
Offered with no forward chain, the property is now ready for its next chapter and would suit downsizers, retirees or younger families alike, especially those seeking a property with scope, parking, a generous plot and a semi-rural outlook right on the village edge.
Location Longfield is a bustling village offering excellent shopping facilities (Waitrose and Co-op included). It is in the catchment area for (an) excellent primary school/s, Longfield Academy and grammar schools. There is a thriving village life with large village hall and superb recreational facilities for the family. Transport links include the main line railway station for the commuter to London Victoria (fast trains 30 minutes) and the A2 and M25 motorways, providing links to Gatwick and Heathrow airports; London; Bluewater; and Ebbsfleet International railway station (20 minutes to London St Pancras).
