This impressive seven-bedroom Victorian home presents an exceptional opportunity for renovation and investment in a highly desirable London neighborhood. Available for the first time in over a century, this property has been cherished by the same family for three generations, imbued with historical charm yet ripe for modernization.
Situated on a tranquil, tree-lined street at the Belsize Park end, the residence spans four spacious floors. The garden level currently features a self-contained flat, which could serve as a private guest suite or rental opportunity. The property is in need of extensive refurbishment, making it an ideal blank canvas for those looking to craft a personalized family abode. With the necessary planning approvals, there is considerable potential to expand the living space both to the side and rear, allowing for greater versatility in layout.
Inside, the house retains numerous period details that evoke its original grandeur, including high ceilings on the ground floor, decorative cornicing, and classic fireplaces. Once updated, this residence could showcase an impressive design: formal reception areas on the raised ground floor complemented by an expansive open-plan kitchen/dining area on the garden level. The upper floors offer generous bedroom accommodations featuring a principal suite with a dressing room and en-suite bathroom, alongside several additional bedrooms and bathrooms to cater to family needs.
Outside, the property boasts a mature west-facing garden extending approximately 65 feet—ideal for outdoor gatherings—and a sizeable walled front garden that enhances privacy while providing curb appeal.
The location adds further value; just a short walk away lies Belsize Park’s vibrant amenities and transport links (Northern Line), along with the quaint shops and cafés of England's Lane. This combination of features makes it not only an attractive family home but also a sound investment with significant potential for capital appreciation post-renovation.
