Description

This well-presented three-bedroom semi-detached family home is situated in a sought-after location on Third Avenue, Manor Park. With a generous gross internal area of approximately 1,513 sq ft, the property features a ground floor rear extension, garage, and driveway parking. Notably, it offers significant development potential, supported by both live planning permission and an existing certificate of lawful development, paving the way for a substantial increase in living space. The accommodation is arranged over two floors. Upon entering, you are welcomed into a reception room that boasts a bay window and an attractive exposed brick effect feature wall. A separate dining room leads to an extended kitchen, which is bright and airy thanks to a skylight and is equipped with a range of wall and base units, a gas hob, and space for freestanding appliances. The ground floor also includes a utility room and a shower room, along with additional storage in the rear shed. On the first floor, three bedrooms surround a family bathroom. The principal and second bedrooms are generously sized, while the third bedroom is ideal for use as a single room, home office, or nursery. The outdoor space features a rear garden measuring approximately 44'2" x 28'10", primarily paved for low maintenance yet offering ample room for furniture or landscaping. The front driveway provides off-street parking and leads to the garage, which has been identified for potential conversion under the current planning permission. The property benefits from planning permission granted by the London Borough of Newham for a garage conversion, side extension, and first-floor rear extension, which would add approximately 47.86 sq m of internal space. This scheme includes one additional bedroom and two bathrooms. Furthermore, an existing Certificate of Lawful Development confirms that a loft conversion with rear dormer is permitted development, allowing for further expansion. Third Avenue is located in Manor Park, E12, an area known for its Victorian and Edwardian homes and strong community spirit. Local amenities, parks, and excellent transport links enhance its appeal, making it an ideal choice for families and commuters alike.

Confidence: LOW

This well-presented three-bedroom semi-detached home on Third Avenue in Manor Park offers a solid foundation for a renovation project, despite the asking price being slightly above local averages at £750,000, or £496/sqf compared to the local average of £478/sqf. While the property requires modernization in some areas, particularly in the bathroom, the overall condition is good, with a bright and spacious kitchen that benefits from a rear extension and skylight.

The property comes with substantial development potential, including live planning permission for a garage conversion and extensions that could significantly enhance the living space. This is an appealing opportunity for buyers looking to create value through renovations and expansion, especially with a clear path to a larger family home. However, it's important to note that while the initial guide price is relatively cheap against local sqf averages, bidding could drive the final sale price above this figure. The overall opportunity here is moderate, but with the right vision, it could transform into a fantastic family residence.

Key opportunities

  • Substantial development potential with live planning permission for extensions and garage conversion.
  • Bright and spacious kitchen area, ideal for modernizing and increasing functionality.
  • Good transport links and a low-maintenance garden, enhancing the appeal for family living.
