Description
Built in the 1960s on the former site of St Catherine's Farm Barn, this four-bedroom detached house offers approximately 1,830 sq ft including the garage. It is set on a tree-lined lane within reach of Pinner and Eastcote town centres. The ground floor has a 25-foot living room with a feature fireplace and glazed doors to the garden, a separate dining room, kitchen/breakfast room and guest cloakroom. Upstairs are a principal bedroom with en-suite bath and shower room, two further double bedrooms, a fourth bedroom and a second bathroom.
At the front, mature conifers screen the house from the road, with off-street parking and a double-length garage. The rear garden is approximately 110 feet long and includes a patio, lawn, two ponds, greenhouse and fruit trees. The listing notes scope for a large extension, subject to planning permission. The house and plot offer potential for updating or further development, with any proposed works and planning feasibility requiring separate investigation.

Grade ELow opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
This is a substantial, usable four-bedroom house with several living spaces and an established 110-foot garden featuring mature planting, a patio, ponds and a greenhouse. The interiors look orderly but dated, giving a buyer scope to refresh décor, flooring and older fittings; the brick feature fireplace is a characterful detail, and the listing also notes potential for a large extension subject to planning permission.
The main drawback is the price: at £705 per sq ft, the asking figure is above the local average of £594. With the stated £6,000–£18,000 refurb range, the purchase price plus works would also leave costs stretched against the local benchmark for this floor area. That comparison is with current local average value, not a forecast of what the house might be worth after improvements.
Key opportunities
- Refresh the dated décor, carpets and fittings across the usable interior to give the house a more contemporary feel.
- Make the most of the long, established garden, with its lawn, mature planting, patio, ponds and greenhouse.
- Explore the listing’s stated potential for a large extension, subject to planning permission and independent feasibility.
Key risks
- At the asking price, even with the stated light refurb budget, the purchase-plus-works cost is stretched against the local average benchmark for this floor area.
- All-in spend is likely to land near £1,302,000 including the asking price and quoted works of about £12,000 — roughly 17% above what comparable floor area achieves locally in current condition, so margin after refurbishment is unproven.
