This newly refurbished three-bedroom mid-terrace in Woodford Green blends 1930s character with contemporary finishes, ideal for families looking for immediate move-in condition. The ground floor offers a bright living room and a modern open-plan kitchen/dining area that opens via French doors to a long, well-kept 60–70ft garden — excellent for children and outdoor entertaining. Off-street parking for two cars at the front is a notable convenience in this area.
Commuters will appreciate Woodford Central Line station just a few minutes’ walk away and fast broadband and mobile signal for home working. The property sits near strong local schools, including Ray Lodge and Woodbridge High, making it well suited to family buyers. The house is offered chain free and has been updated with a contemporary kitchen, fresh finishes and double glazing (install date unknown).
There is sensible potential to increase value: loft access via a loft ladder and permission-able scope to extend to the rear and into the loft (STPP). Buyers should note there is a single family bathroom (L-shaped bath) and loft access is via a ladder rather than a fixed staircase. The house is solid brick as built, with presumed limited wall insulation, so further thermal upgrades could be desirable to improve efficiency.
Overall, this property offers a comfortable, ready-to-live-in family home in a well-connected neighbourhood, with clear scope for adding extra space and value subject to planning. Practical positives (parking, long garden, station proximity) are balanced by straightforward improvement items (insulation upgrades, bathroom provision and formal loft conversion to add rooms).
