Monks Orchard Road, Beckenham, BR3

Semi detached family home with delightful 47m (150ft) garden backing onto woodland, in the vicinity of the popular LANGLEY PARK SCHOOLS (Secondary and Primary) as well as Unicorn and Oak Lodge Primary schools.  A lovely rear extension has transformed the ground floor, overlooking the garden this is open plan to both the kitchen and dining room, creating a fabulous reception space.  The attractive sitting room, to the front, has exposed floorboards and there is a downstairs cloakroom off the hall.  Three good bedrooms on first floor plus spacious family bathroom.  The property has been lovingly maintained with character features including the internal doors and there is scope for some further updating.  The garage was rebuilt about 20 years ago to include a store room to the rear (planning permission granted in September 2003) and the house has been re-roofed in recent years.
