Description

This detached home in Elizabeth Park presents a notable renovation opportunity, situated in a desirable community that blends convenience with natural beauty. Close to commendable schools and local amenities, the property is also within easy reach of pleasant country walks and a neighborhood play park, enhancing its appeal for families and outdoor enthusiasts alike. With no onward chain, this home is ready for new ownership. Boasting three bedrooms along with two bathrooms, the layout offers versatility for family living or potential reconfiguration to suit individual needs. The master bedroom features an en-suite bathroom and a generous walk-in closet, while the additional bedrooms provide ample space and light. The ground floor includes two interlinked reception rooms separated by elegant double doors, facilitating a flow of natural light through both the box bay window and the French doors that open onto the garden. The kitchen/breakfast room is well-positioned to accommodate casual dining while overlooking the outdoor space—a perfect spot to consider modern updates or expansion. Located within a peaceful cul-de-sac in Elizabeth Park, this property enjoys favorable access to both Barkham Recreation Ground and scenic walks through Fox Hill Woodland and Sandy Lane. The surrounding area is known for its strong educational options, making it an attractive prospect for those prioritizing schooling for their children. Interested parties can review information on local schools as well as broadband connectivity and transport links through available resources. The property requires updating and decor throughout, presenting an ideal canvas for personalization. Notably, while appliances are untested, some improvements have been made over the years—such as double-glazed windows installed around 2006 and a newly-fitted front door. The boiler is housed in the garage with indications of functionality within the heating system. Importantly, there is potential to extend above the garage (subject to necessary planning approvals), which could significantly enhance both living space and property value. Additionally, there’s room to expand the kitchen footprint below. It’s worth noting that there are Tree Preservation Orders affecting trees within the rear garden area. Overall, this residence stands out as an enticing project for those looking to make their mark through refurbishment or expansion in one of Barkham's most sought-after neighborhoods. With a clear path toward enhancing its value through strategic renovations or extensions, this home offers both immediate comfort and long-term investment potential.
