Description

This semi-detached house offers a traditional bay fronted design and spacious accommodation throughout. While it requires a programme of modernisation, it presents a valuable opportunity for potential buyers to renovate and personalise the property to their own taste, ultimately enhancing its value. Upon entering, you are greeted by an entrance hallway that leads to a bright and spacious front reception room. At the rear, a second generous reception room connects to a lean-to addition that overlooks the garden, along with a separate kitchen that provides excellent potential for creating an open plan layout. The first floor features two generous double bedrooms, a single third bedroom, and a family bathroom. Access to the loft is available from the landing, where the ample roof space offers great potential for conversion into a substantial principal bedroom with en-suite, subject to the usual planning permissions and building regulations. Externally, a private driveway allows for convenient off-street parking at the front. The rear garden is laid to lawn and enjoys a desirable south-easterly aspect. Additionally, a garage and workshop are located at the far end of the plot, providing further utility. The property also offers excellent scope for a rear extension, subject to necessary planning consents. Ideally situated, this home is just 0.6 miles from Rayners Lane's diverse range of shops, restaurants, and transport connections, including Metropolitan and Piccadilly Line services that provide direct access into Central London. Roxbourne Infant and Junior School is also within easy walking distance, making this an excellent choice for families seeking a well-connected home with exceptional potential in a highly regarded location.

Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This semi-detached house presents an intriguing opportunity for those looking to acquire a property at a competitive price. With an asking price of £535,000 translating to just £448 per square foot, this is 15% below the local average, making it an attractive prospect for renovation enthusiasts. The property is in need of modernisation, allowing new owners to personalise the space and potentially enhance its value significantly.

Inside, the home features a traditional layout with well-proportioned rooms, including a bright reception area and a separate kitchen that holds excellent potential for an open-plan layout. The upstairs offers two double bedrooms, a single bedroom, and a family bathroom, with the loft space providing an opportunity for conversion into a principal bedroom with an en-suite, subject to planning. The garden, while average, benefits from a desirable south-easterly aspect, and the private driveway offers convenient off-street parking. Overall, while the property requires a light touch renovation, the strong price point and potential for improvement make it a compelling option in a sought-after location.
