## Description

This semi-detached bungalow is situated in a peaceful cul-de-sac less than a mile from Orpington town centre. Access to shops and facilities is made easy thanks to the bus route that runs close by.

The accommodation includes two double bedrooms at the front of the property and a lounge/diner to the rear, plus a conservatory overlooking the garden. There is a fitted kitchen and bathroom with access from the hallway.

Outside, the rear garden enjoys a westerly aspect and has areas of lawn, patio and flower beds plus a storage shed.

At the front, there is a driveway for off street parking and this leads to a useful car port and attached garage.

Orpington is a thriving suburban town within the M25 and therefore ideally situated for access to the motorway network and the railway stations that can transport you into London in as little as 17 minutes. The Town Centre has a comprehensive range of shops and facilities including the Walnuts Shopping Centre and Odeon cinema. Sports facilities are also well catered for with the Walnuts Leisure Centre, golf courses, football and rugby clubs all within the area. A little way out of town you will find larger stores at the Nugent Retail Park along with electrical superstores, furniture shops and DIY centres along the Sevenoaks Way. Shopping centres at Bluewater and Bromley can also be found within 10 miles drive or bus ride.

- **Max investor price (0.8%):** £199,875
- **Target investor price (1%):** £159,900

- **Monthly cashflow:** £134/mo (75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term)
- **Cash-on-cash ROI:** 1.7%

*Gross yield = annual rent as % of price (no costs). Cost-to-rent = price ÷ annual rent (from OpenRent comparables); under 14× = strong, 14–16× = acceptable, 17×+ = compressed. Cashflow = rent − mortgage − 10% maintenance − £25/mo compliance; assumes 75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term. ROI = annual profit ÷ cash in (deposit + 4% purchase costs).*
