A substantial five-bedroom detached house in a well-connected Edgware location, offering over 2,100 sq ft of family living and immediate move-in use. The existing layout includes two large reception rooms with bay windows and wood flooring, a spacious kitchen with direct garden access, five well-proportioned bedrooms and two family bathrooms plus a guest WC. The wide entrance hall and bright landing create a welcoming, light-filled circulation space.
This plot also carries a clear development upside: planning permission has been granted to demolish the current house and build a 4,000 sq ft mansion. Buyers looking to create a bespoke, larger home will value the consent in place; alternatively the current dwelling provides substantial family accommodation and scope to extend or convert the integral garage (STPP).
Practical points to note: the property dates from the 1930s and has cavity walls with assumed no added insulation, and the EPC is rated E. Council tax is described as quite expensive. The mature rear garden, private driveway with parking for several cars and fast broadband/more reliable mobile signal add everyday convenience for families and professionals.
Located near highly regarded state and independent schools, regular bus routes and local amenities, the home sits in an affluent part of HA8 with good transport connections. The combination of sizeable existing accommodation and significant redevelopment potential will suit growing families or investors seeking value through renovation or rebuild.
