This superb two bedroom first floor flat is situated within half a mile of St. Mary Cray station and makes an ideal first time buy or investment purchase. Stairs from the communal hall lead you up to the first floor landing where you will find a large built-in storage cupboard for private us...
Property Oracle says ..
This two-bedroom, first-floor flat located in Bannister Gardens, Orpington, BR5 3ET, is marketed as an ideal first-time buyer or investment property. Its proximity to St Mary Cray station is a significant advantage, offering easy access to London. Several nearby schools are rated ‘Good’ or ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted, making this an appealing location for families. The internal photos show a modern and well-maintained property, which appears to have been recently refurbished. The kitchen and bathroom are particularly noteworthy for their contemporary design and finishes. The property itself is a flat, therefore comes with no outdoor space. The lack of plot size information makes it difficult to provide a detailed opinion on the size of the outdoor area. Given the presented photographs the interior of the property is in good condition. However, there is no information available on the age of the building or its current structural integrity. The list price of £270,000 seems competitive compared to other flats in the area, but a definitive assessment requires more detailed local pricing data that includes plot sizes. The lack of outside space may be a drawback for some buyers, affecting its desirability for families or those seeking a garden. Overall, this property presents a reasonably attractive option for first-time buyers or investors looking for a conveniently located, well-maintained flat in Greater London.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
