Description

Nestled in the quaint Boxmoor 'Village', this distinctive three-bedroom cottage presents a unique investment opportunity with considerable renovation potential. The property boasts an unexpected amount of living space, featuring three reception rooms and an open-plan kitchen breakfast area on the ground floor. There is direct access to the courtyard garden from the dining room, enhancing outdoor entertainment possibilities. Additionally, a guest cloakroom and a basement add to the utility of this level. Upstairs, you will find three spacious double bedrooms along with a sitting room and a utility area. The landing provides access to a balcony that leads down to the charming courtyard below. This outside space is not only private but ideal for hosting gatherings. Boxmoor Village offers scenic surroundings with its local Moor, cricket pitch, and waterways such as the Grand Union Canal and River Bulbourne. The community features shops, dining options, and recreational facilities including a village hall and playhouse. The mainline station affords excellent transport links to London Euston in just 26 minutes. Notably, there is an active planning application submitted by the current owners aimed at converting this property into two separate maisonettes — one being a two-bedroom unit on the ground floor with outdoor space and another three-bedroom unit above with its own entrance and balcony. This conversion plan enhances the property's appeal as an investment or refurbishment project. Potential buyers should conduct their due diligence regarding the planning application status and renovation requirements.
