Summary - 31 TEMPEST AVENUE POTTERS BAR EN6 5JU
3 bed 1 bath Detached
Large west-facing plot with huge garden and strong extension potential STPP.
Chain free freehold detached family home
Set on a substantial west-facing plot, this 3-bedroom detached family home offers generous living space across three reception rooms and roughly 1,387 sq ft of accommodation. The long 100ft x 45ft rear garden, sizable driveway and outbuilding provide strong family appeal, excellent outdoor space and scope to extend subject to planning (STPP). Sold chain free on freehold tenure, it suits buyers wanting room to grow.
The house dates from the mid-20th century with period character and cavity walls; double glazing was installed after 2002 and the property is heated by a mains-gas boiler and radiators. Practical positives include off-street parking for several vehicles and low flood risk. The layout and plot present clear refurbishment and extension potential for buyers looking to add value.
Notable drawbacks are a single main bathroom, an above-average local crime rate, and higher local council tax. Some local state schools carry “requires improvement” Ofsted ratings, which may concern families relying on nearby catchments. Any planned enlargement or structural alteration will need the usual planning consents and budget for works.
Overall, this detached home is best for families or buyers who prioritise outdoor space and potential over a fully modernised interior. It rewards those prepared to invest in updating and extending to realise its full value and liveability.
