Property Oracle says ..
This two-bedroom terraced house in Ferndown Avenue, Orpington, presents a mixed bag. Its strong point is undoubtedly its location. The proximity to highly-rated schools and Petts Wood town centre, along with excellent transport links to Orpington and Petts Wood train stations, make it highly attractive to families. The property itself, however, presents a clear need for modernisation and upgrading. The photos reveal outdated décor and fittings in the kitchen and bathroom, indicating the need for potential renovation work. The garden, while present, seems undermaintained, suggesting some landscaping is required. The house’s size and asking price seem appropriate, making it potentially a sound investment for buyers prepared to renovate. Although the overall condition could be improved, the excellent location makes this property a viable option for those seeking a home in a well-connected and desirable area of Orpington.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
