This four-bedroom detached house in Ickenham sits on a generous plot close to Ickenham village and Breakspear Primary School — an attractive location for families seeking space and good schools. The property offers immediate occupancy with scope to add value through refurbishment or extension, subject to planning (STPP). Being chain-free simplifies a quicker move.
Internally the layout is practical: a bright 17ft reception room with bay window, separate 14ft dining room opening to the garden, a fitted kitchen, downstairs tiled shower room and a ground-floor bedroom. Upstairs provides a 17ft principal bedroom with fitted wardrobes, two further well-sized bedrooms, family bathroom and separate WC. Double glazing and gas central heating are already in place.
The plot includes off-street parking, a driveway, a 17ft garage and mature, private rear gardens with lawn, patio and shed — good outdoor space for children and entertaining. The house dates from the 1950s and retains period character, giving scope for modernization to suit contemporary family living.
Important points: the property requires renovation throughout and is offered with an EPC rating of D. Council tax sits in a higher band. Any structural changes or extensions would need planning permission (STPP). These factors mean buyers should budget for works and take the EPC/council tax into account when assessing running costs.
