Description

This property presents a rare opportunity to transform a spacious five-bedroom house into a stunning family residence in the desirable area of South Woodford. While currently in need of extensive renovation to restore its former charm, the potential is significant. Previously, planning permission was secured (now lapsed) for an additional detached dwelling on the grounds, offering further investment possibilities. The large plot provides ample space for creative landscaping or even expanding the existing structure. Located conveniently within walking distance of South Woodford's vibrant amenities, including restaurants, cafes, and parks, this home is also well-connected to central London via the nearby tube station and major roadways. With quick access to key transport links, it suits both families and commuters alike.
