Oakwood Close, Chislehurst

GUIDE PRICE: £1,595,000 - £1,650,000. Occupying an exceptional wider-than-average plot within one of Chislehurst's most prestigious private cul-de-sacs, this stunning four double bedroom detached Arts & Crafts family home offers a rare opportunity to acquire a home of genuine character, with beautifully established gardens and exceptional scope to extend or further develop (STPP).

Bright, spacious and exceptionally versatile, the accommodation has been thoughtfully designed for modern family living. A magnificent vaulted entrance hall, featuring a striking stained-glass window and elegant galleried landing, creates an immediate sense of space and character from the moment you step inside.

The superb dual aspect living room is flooded with natural light and enjoys French doors opening directly onto the rear garden, effortlessly connecting the indoor and outdoor spaces. At the heart of the home is a beautifully appointed shaker-style kitchen, complete with a central island, breakfast bar and integrated appliances, providing the ideal setting for everyday family life. A formal dining room offers the perfect space for entertaining, whilst a further reception room provides excellent flexibility as a snug, family room or playroom. A separate study completes the ground floor, creating an excellent work-from-home environment.

To the first floor, the spacious galleried landing leads to four generous double bedrooms, including an impressive principal bedroom with fitted wardrobes. The stylish family bathroom has been beautifully updated to incorporate both a bath and contemporary wet-room style shower, complemented by a separate WC.

Outside, the property continues to impress with mature wraparound gardens and an approximately 80ft easterly facing rear garden, offering a wonderful degree of privacy and seclusion. A detached garden office provides valuable additional accommodation for home working, hobbies or leisure, together with a separate store room. The generous plot previously benefitted from planning permission for a substantial two-storey extension (now lapsed), whilst the size and configuration of the grounds present exciting opportunities for further extension or development, subject to the necessary planning consents. A generous private driveway provides ample off street parking for several vehicles.

Perfectly positioned just moments from Chislehurst High Street, the property enjoys easy access to an excellent selection of independent cafés, restaurants, boutique shops and everyday amenities. Chislehurst and Elmstead Woods stations provide excellent transport links into central London, whilst families are particularly well served by a number of highly regarded schools including Farringtons, Babington House, Bromley High School and Eltham College.
