Description

This impressive family residence has been a cherished home for over three decades, providing an exceptional opportunity for both prospective homeowners and investors. The property spans approximately 1,868 sq ft (173.5 sq m) with additional loft space bringing the total to around 2,173 sq ft (201.8 sq m), making it a suitable candidate for renovation and expansion. The interior features a functional layout that includes three double bedrooms, a versatile loft room, and three spacious reception areas alongside a practical kitchen. While the home is in good overall condition and allows for immediate occupancy with minimal upfront investment, there remains considerable potential for enhancement. There is ample opportunity to add value through possible loft conversion and rear extension (subject to obtaining planning permissions), allowing future owners to tailor the space to their needs while significantly increasing market value. Externally, the property offers a private driveway and an expansive rear garden—an increasingly sought-after feature that provides both parking convenience and outdoor enjoyment. Located on Romford Road, this house benefits from close proximity to the lively Green Street shopping area with a diverse array of retail and dining options. The transport links are another significant advantage; Forest Gate Station (Elizabeth Line) and Woodgrange Park Station are just a short distance away, providing straightforward access into Central London, which enhances its appeal as an investment property or family home.
