Confidence: LOW

This substantial character home, dating back to 1899, offers a unique opportunity to acquire a distinctive period property with considerable potential. Located in the sought-after Tivoli district, the house boasts a spacious layout with generous rooms, tall ceilings, and beautiful period features, including original Victorian fireplaces. Its corner plot provides off-road parking for two cars and a double-length garage that could be transformed into additional living space or a home office, offering flexibility for future buyers.

Despite its appealing features, the asking price of £1,200,000 is on the dear side when compared to the local average of £499/sqf, sitting at £662/sqf, which may deter some buyers. The potential for modernisation and reconfiguration remains strong, especially with the large garden that wraps around three sides of the house, perfect for families and outdoor entertaining. While the property is in good condition overall, prospective buyers should be mindful of the potential for unseen issues that can come with a home of this age. Nevertheless, this home presents a canvas for those looking to create a fabulous family residence in a prime location.

Key opportunities

  • Transform the double-length garage into additional living space or a home office.
  • Modernise and reconfigure the existing accommodation to suit personal taste.
  • Utilise the large, south-facing garden for outdoor entertaining and recreation.
