Area Comments
Like its sister village St Mary Cray, St Pauls Cray lies in the shadow of Orpington, and may be considered part of it in many ways. It's an area which mixes council property and large detached houses, and a place of light industry and great opportunities for first time buyers and families looking to expand.
North of the centre of Orpington, St Pauls lies to the west of the often busy Sevenoaks Way. Despite its location in a fairly busy suburb, the area is near to a large number of green spaces with at least three golf courses nearby and parks and walks aplenty. It's a shoppers' paradise with loads of parades featuring all the big high street names in an easy walk or very short drive. The area has a great reputation with families, as it's safe, friendly and quiet in general, and being where it is in the Kent/Southeast London catchment, it's perfect for lots of great local schools.
Houses here are a distinct mix. There are a large number of council properties and ex-council houses come on the market, having been bought out by their council tenants fro the 1980s. These 1950s semis and terraced houses are great value for first timers and represent the build of the market here, and the reason for its popularity. Towards Chislehurst, however, there are some excellent large detached houses that grow more numerous as you go up Leesons Hill, in the Marlings Park Avenue and along the Orpington Road. These are the signal properties of St Pauls Cray, whilst the smaller but very fine and affordable postwar houses are the mainstay - superb properties of both kinds are found on the market, and though they attract different areas of the market, all are highly sought after by their target buyers.
