Set on a generous plot in Hadley Wood, this four-bedroom detached house offers spacious family living across approximately 2,489 sq ft. The ground floor has multiple reception rooms, a kitchen/breakfast room and a guest cloakroom; upstairs there are four bedrooms and two bathrooms (one en suite). A mature rear garden of about 140 ft features a large terrace and a swimming pool, plus a paved driveway and garage providing substantial parking.
The property dates from the mid-20th century and has a classic brick facade with double glazing and a modern open staircase in the foyer. It is offered chain free and has clear potential for further extension subject to planning permission, allowing buyers to add value and adapt the layout to current needs. Local amenities, Hadley Wood Primary and the rail station are within easy walking distance.
Buyers should note practical considerations: the cavity walls were built without insulation (assumed), the house may benefit from updating and energy-efficiency improvements, and broadband speeds in the area are reported as slow. The pool and large garden require ongoing maintenance, and council tax is very expensive. These factors are important for budgeting both short-term renovation work and longer-term running costs.
This home will suit families seeking space, outdoor living and proximity to highly rated schools, or a purchaser looking to modernise and increase value. Its size, plot and chain-free status make it a strong candidate for those wanting a substantial family property with scope to personalise.
