3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Northdown Road, Longfield, Kent DA3

Offered to the market with no forward chain and in a popular pocket of Longfield Village is this three bedroom, semi-detached house.

Within walking distance of Longfield Station and a number of reputable schools, the property is a fantastic opportunity for first time buyers, young and growing families, or potentially even those looking to downsize.

Whilst the property could benefit from some internal modernisation, it has been well-loved, retaining a wealth of potential for extensions and added value, subject to the necessary permissions.

The home offers a driveway for two vehicles, plus a detached garage for further parking or storage.

Traditionally configured for a home of this era, downstairs, the property comprises an entrance hallway which, via a door to the right, offers access through to a bright and spacious, square bay-fronted lounge-diner. This is semi-partitioned by a fireplace and chimney breast and features original, herringbone parquet flooring under its carpets, as well as sliding doors to the rear garden. There is a separate fitted kitchen which again offers access to the garden, and a storage cupboard.

Upstairs, the property includes two double bedrooms and one traditionally smaller single! Each of the three bedrooms offer fitted wardrobes/storage space, with a family bathroom and a separate WC which complete the accommodation. The family bathroom comprises shower-above-bath plus wash/hand basin, with the potential to knock through to the separate WC, relatively easily.

Further benefits include gas (warm-air) central heating, double glazing and a loft space for storage. There is also fantastic potential to extend to the rear, or above the garage to the side (STPP) with a fantastic planning precedent set for such works, along the road.

Externally, the home offers a spacious rear garden. Tiered and on an upward gradient, this space features a patio, with a retaining wall and concrete steps, leading up to its main proportion which is laid-to-lawn. To the rear, there is a garden shed and a greenhouse, before far-reaching views of countryside with fields known as “The Gallops”.

The village of Longfield offers a nursery, a primary school and a secondary school (academy). See school checker for more. There are also school coach services to local Grammar schools. The village also includes a Waitrose Supermarket, a Co-Op, a Post-Office, a pharmacy, a doctor’s surgery, a dental practice and a number of dine-in or takeaway eateries.

Road links to the A2, M25, M2 and M20 are fantastic, for easy routes to the capital, the Kent Coast, or perhaps Gatwick & Heathrow airports.

Whilst Longfield station offers a direct service to London Victoria a little over half an hour, Ebbsfleet International is a short drive away, which offers a service to Stratford International and St Pancras International (Kings Cross), both in under 25 minutes. Bluewater Shopping Centre is also less than 20 minutes away by car, for those enjoy their retail therapy.
