## Description

Tucked away in a highly sought after cul de sac is this immaculate two bedroom detached bungalow. 

It is located on the borders of Barnehurst and is within easy access to the local shopping parade up on Midfield Parade just off Mayplace Road East where you can purchase your everyday essentials. 

Also nearby is Maypace Primary school which is just a stones throw away and has a fantastic reputation. 

Barnehurst mainline train station is within close proximity and has great transport links in and out of central London and deeper into Kent in the other direction. If your a keen golfer then Barnehurst Golf Course is just arcross the road

This detached bungalow would ideally suit those looking to down size and those that are looking for that something extra special.

From start to finish each area has been carefully taken of and the rear garden really is something else.

It has been well maintained over the years and is stocked with mature shrubberies and is an idyllic peaceful setting.

Internally this boasts a large open plan lounge to the back of the property which in turn leads to a delightful kitchen.

At the front are two double bedrooms both with fitted wardrobes and a shower room.

There is off street parking on the front and access to a garage if you have a smaller car.

Personal Interest: In accordance with Section 21 of the Estate Agents Act 1979 we hereby declare the Vendor of this property is a relative of an employee of Anthony Martin Estate Agents.

Crayford is within the London Borough of Bexley, yet shares its postcode with the nearby Dartford. Crayford over years past has undergone some major redevelopments with its town centre being rejuvenated yet keeping some original charm and some newly built housing developments breathing new life into the community.

There's a huge retail outlet in addition to one of the nation’s largest Sainsbury’s. If you fancy a night out then why not consider a dog racing night. Yes, Crayford even has its own dog track which is famous across the nation.

Even travelling to London could not be any simpler. This is the last train station that just creeps into the zones being within zone 6. The 96 bus route runs straight through the middle of Crayford. One way the nearby Bluewater shopping centre and the other to Bexleyheath town centre. Some may say that Crayford is central to all things nice, and owning a home here could be like owning your very own slice of heaven.
