Set on a private road in Barnet, this detached 3-bedroom bungalow offers single-storey living with a generous 100' rear garden that backs onto open fields. The current layout includes a large, light-filled reception room with patio doors, a bespoke kitchen/breakfast room and a modern shower room. A tiled terrace with underfloor heating and planning permission already granted present clear scope to extend and enhance living space. Chain-free and freehold, the house is ready for immediate occupation or further improvement.
Practical daily life is well supported: a garage plus driveway parking for two cars, excellent mobile signal, very low local crime and several highly regarded state and independent schools within easy reach. The location is convenient for local shopping at The Spires and roughly a mile from High Barnet tube (Northern Line) for direct links into central London.
Notable limitations are straightforward. There is a single bathroom for three bedrooms and broadband speeds are reported as slow — a consideration for home-working families. The property dates from the 1930s–1940s and cavity walls are assumed to lack insulation, so further energy upgrades may be needed. Council Tax is Band E (above average) and planning permission details are not specified here, so prospective buyers should verify the consent and build costs before committing.
For buyers seeking a single-level family home with substantial outdoor space and scope to add value, this bungalow combines a desirable private plot and planning headway with a location close to schools and transport. It will particularly suit families or downsizers who value outdoor privacy, immediate convenience and future extension potential.
