Orchard Road, linking Bromley with Chislehurst,
is a wide tree lined avenue that still retains the
proportions and ambience of a previous era with
its mix of traditional properties.
Baytree Close, a quiet cul-de-sac of half a dozen
homes is one of this areas hidden residential gems.
Bromley boasts an excellent variety of High Street
branded shops, department stores and 'The Glades'
mall, together with supermarkets. An indoor pool
swimming complex plus a range of sports and
leisure facilities are close to hand.
The borough is renowned for its wide selections of
both private and state funded education, including
Grammar schools available locally.
Connections by road to all areas of the south east
including the airports at Gatwick and Heathrow, the
Channel Tunnel and Ports could not be easier with
access via the A20 to the M25, M20 and M26
motorways.
Rail links at Elmstead Woods (Charing Cross
station 23 minutes) or Bromley South(Victoria
station 30 minutes) both give convenient fast and
frequent services into central London.
In all, coupled with the wealth of interesting
architectural styles, the proximity of the green open
spaces for which Bromley is famed with the
accessibility to central London, Orchard Road has
much to recommend it to modern families seeking
a safe and secure environment.
