Description

This charming detached cottage, dating back to the mid-1800s, offers an exceptional opportunity for renovation and investment. Located on a historic street between the Commons, this property is not only unique but also positioned in a desirable area just off Northcote Road. Its proximity to well-regarded primary schools, including Honeywell and Belleville, makes it particularly appealing for families. The home features a bright and spacious layout that includes a generous open-plan reception area adorned with a fireplace and an attractive spiral staircase. Double doors provide access to a sunlit kitchen that connects to a rear hallway leading to a dining space, shower room/WC, and an additional office or third bedroom with direct garden access. The substantial ground floor extension enhances the living space while offering flexibility for various uses. Outdoor space is another highlight of this property, with a mature south-facing garden that ensures privacy and tranquility—perfect for gardening enthusiasts or outdoor gatherings. There is also potential for side access which adds convenience. Upstairs, the house currently contains two double bedrooms and a roomy bathroom. However, the large unconverted loft presents an excellent opportunity for expansion—allowing for the addition of another double bedroom with dual aspects and possibly an en-suite bathroom (subject to planning permission). Being well maintained and neutrally decorated throughout means this property is ready for immediate occupancy while leaving ample room for personal touches or further development. The location offers convenient transport connections at Clapham South (Underground) and Clapham Junction (Mainline), along with easy access to vibrant local amenities such as bars, restaurants, and specialty shops. In summary, this property not only boasts historical charm but also significant potential for enhancement in both living space and value—making it an exciting prospect for any investor or homeowner looking to create their ideal residence in a sought-after neighborhood.
