This distinctive detached family home, built in the 1920s in the arts and crafts style, offers a promising opportunity for renovation and investment. Set within a sought-after area near Haslemere recreation ground, this property not only boasts character but also potential for expansion given the existing planning permission for a two-storey extension and loft conversion (WBC Ref WA/2024/00582).
April Wood features four well-proportioned bedrooms, making it an ideal choice for families or investors looking to enhance its value. The generous layout includes three inviting reception rooms: a triple-aspect living room with a stone fireplace, a twin-aspect dining room, and an L-shaped study that offers versatility for various uses. The open-plan kitchen, breakfast room, and utility area at the rear of the house provide ample space for modernization.
Character elements of the home include traditional tile hanging and leaded light windows, most of which have been fitted with secondary glazing to improve energy efficiency. The first floor is home to four bedrooms, including a main suite that features an ensuite bathroom and a dressing room. Additionally, there’s a spacious loft area ripe for development.
The exterior complements the interior with its level front and rear gardens. The front driveway is attractively finished in stone shingle with brick edging and is enhanced by mature planting that provides privacy. At the back, you’ll find plans for a stone-paved terrace alongside a newly turfed lawn—perfect for outdoor entertaining or family activities.
This property is not merely a residence but also an investment prospect in an established neighborhood where family homes are highly valued. Its current state allows for personal touches to be added, while future renovations can significantly increase its appeal and market worth.
