## Description

Externally, you will notice the property has been redecorated with the addition of a new roof. There is also a new driveway for three vehicles while there is a well maintained rear garden with a large patio area ideal for entertaining.

Situated in a residential road and within a short walk to Welling Train Station and bus connections to Woolwich, Sidcup, Bexley and Orpington makes this home ideal for any growing family.

Welling is a town within the borough of Bexley and on the cusp of the borough of Greenwich. With great transport links via its Zone Four Train Station offering access into the heart of London within 25 minutes, this is a very popular spot for the everyday commuter. A few key landmarks are scattered around the town, so if you have a keen eye for history, or pretty sights, ‘Danson Park’ with its lake, open fields, children’s play area and pub/restaurant, this should definitely be your first stop.

Welling is home to its very own Football Club; Welling United who currently play the conference league. As a company we are more than proud to be their main sponsor and wish them the very best for this season!!

As a whole the Bexley borough is renowned for its wonderful array of schools, whether the family need primary or secondary education with many showing an outstanding 'Ofsted' report.
