A roomy four-bedroom detached home on Highgate Hill, offered chain free and set within the desirable Cranbrook School catchment. Constructed in the 1930s, the house retains period character — high ceilings, bay windows and a bay-fronted living room with an open fire — across approximately 2,205 sq ft of accommodation. The layout includes three reception rooms, a conservatory, a fitted kitchen with pantry and a useful boot room with ground-floor WC.
The property sits on a decent plot with a large driveway, garage and a sunny rear garden with a patio, lawn, vegetable patch and mature planting. It suits families wanting space to grow, hobby gardeners, or buyers who value village living with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Local amenities are close by at the Colonnade, and commuter rail links to London are reachable from nearby stations.
Practical points to note: the house was built c.1930 and has cavity walls assumed to be uninsulated; double glazing is present but install date is unknown. There is one family bathroom plus a separate en-suite WC rather than a full second bathroom, and council tax is described as expensive. These factors, together with the property’s age, mean there is scope — and likely some cost — for modernisation, insulation improvement and updating to meet contemporary energy standards.
Overall this is a substantial, characterful family home with immediate living space and clear potential to modernise. Buyers seeking generous rooms, good school access and a private garden will find genuine appeal, while those prioritising modern energy efficiency should budget for insulation and improvement works.
