Situated on a tranquil residential street in East Barnet, this three-bedroom semi-detached house presents a notable opportunity for buyers interested in renovation and investment potential. With its proximity to Southgate and Hampden Square, the location offers a blend of suburban living with convenient access to local amenities.
Spanning approximately 1,028 sq ft (95.6 sq m) internally, in addition to 101 sq ft (9.4 sq m) of outbuildings, the property features a flexible layout that can be tailored to suit personal preferences. The house has side access and boasts a spacious rear garden, which not only enhances outdoor living but also allows room for expansion—such as a ground floor rear extension to create an open-plan kitchen and dining area (subject to planning permission). Many neighboring properties have successfully converted their lofts into additional bedrooms and bathrooms, presenting further avenues for enhancement.
The ground floor is thoughtfully arranged with an inviting entrance hallway leading into two distinct reception rooms, providing ample space for both relaxation and dining. A well-sized kitchen overlooks the rear garden, while practical features such as an understairs storage cupboard add functionality. The external storage areas accessible from the side return augment the home's practicality.
On the first floor, you'll find three bedrooms—two substantial doubles complemented by a third single room—alongside a family bathroom and additional landing storage. This configuration is particularly suitable for growing families seeking room to thrive.
The expansive private rear garden stands out as one of the property’s key attributes, offering numerous possibilities for leisure and entertainment. A separate outbuilding could serve various purposes—whether as an office space, hobby area, or extra storage—and the side access eases movement of bikes, bins, or gardening tools.
The location itself is highly desirable; Brookside South combines community charm with practicality. Residents enjoy close proximity to local shops, cafés, and restaurants while being within reach of several reputable primary and secondary schools—making it appealing for families concerned about educational options. Nearby Oak Hill Park provides additional recreational opportunities with its green spaces and sports facilities.
Transport options are excellent here as well—Southgate Underground Station on the Piccadilly Line and Oakleigh Park Station offering National Rail services are both easily accessible. Various bus routes further enhance connectivity to central London and surrounding areas.
