Description

This spacious five-bedroom home spans over 3,700 sq ft and presents a significant opportunity for investment and enhancement. Nestled on a distinguished street, the residence successfully marries generous living areas with functionality. The potential to further elevate the front exterior by introducing electric gates is just one of the many possibilities awaiting the new owner. Upon entering, you are greeted by an expansive reception hall that leads into a thoughtfully designed ground floor, characterized by an open-plan kitchen, dining, and breakfast area outfitted with high-end Miele appliances and modern amenities like underfloor heating and triple glazing. The abundance of natural light pours in through large windows and bi-fold doors, creating a bright environment that opens onto beautifully landscaped gardens. An integrated garage and utility/laundry room provide practical elements to the layout. The lower ground floor shines as a versatile entertainment space, presenting options to create a cinema, gym, or games room—all accessible through bi-fold doors that lead directly to the garden. This space is complemented by additional facilities including a shower room and cloakroom. On the first floor, find five generously sized bedrooms alongside three well-appointed bathrooms that ensure comfort for families seeking privacy. Externally, the property boasts a 120ft garden offering seclusion and an excellent patio area for dining al fresco. Furthermore, there is considerable potential to extend at the rear for more living space or perhaps even integrate a swimming pool (subject to planning permission). Existing outdoor structures like the summer house could be modernized into a studio or home office. Conveniently located near Oakleigh Park mainline station with swift access into central London as well as proximity to various shops on Whetstone High Road and reputable schools nearby.
