Set on a large plot in sought-after East Finchley, this detached four-bedroom house is offered chain free and ready for renovation. The property includes an integral garage, off-street parking for two cars and an established family garden of approximately 138ft — a rare combination for the area. With 1,908 sq ft across two storeys, there is scope to modernise, reconfigure and potentially extend subject to planning consent.
The accommodation is bright and practical, with interconnecting reception rooms, a separate kitchen, utility room and a single family bathroom. Double glazing is already installed, heating is mains gas via boiler and radiators, and mobile and broadband connectivity are strong — useful for home working. The house’s solid brick construction and mid-20th-century character give a stable base for refurbishment rather than reconstruction.
Important considerations: the home requires modernisation throughout and the walls are likely uninsulated, which will affect running costs until upgraded. There is only one bathroom for four bedrooms and council tax is described as quite expensive. Any enlargement will need planning permission. Buyers should budget for renovation and possible insulation or wiring upgrades.
This property will best suit a growing family or an owner-occupier investor looking to add value. Its proximity to East Finchley station, local shops, and highly rated local schools (including outstanding options) makes it convenient for everyday life while offering realistic upside through improvement or extension.
