6 bed 1 bath Detached
Large plot with period charm and major refurbishment potential near schools.

175ft south-easterly rear garden — large, private outdoor space
Detached period 'Hicks' house with bay windows and fireplaces
Off-street and gated parking with driveway and garage access
Requires full refurbishment throughout — services and finishes need updating
Single main bathroom plus separate WC — limited facilities for six bedrooms
Solid brick walls; insulation likely missing — thermal upgrade needed
Council Tax Band G — relatively high running costs to consider
This substantial six-bedroom detached 'Hicks' house sits on a generous plot in Potters Bar, within easy reach of the mainline station and highly regarded local schools. The property retains period character — bay windows, fireplaces and a through lounge — and offers a rare opportunity to create a large family home with a long, south-easterly garden. There is off-street and gated parking and scope to extend subject to planning permission.
The house is sold as a renovation project and requires refurbishment throughout; buyers should expect updating to services, finishes and thermal performance (solid brick walls, assumed uninsulated). There is only one main bathroom and a separate WC to service six bedrooms, which will be a material consideration for larger families or for conversion into multiple units.
For families the location and plot are major draws: excellent schools nearby, good broadband and low local crime. For investors or developers the sizable footprint, 175ft rear garden and driveway give potential for extension or reconfiguration (s.t.p.p). Council Tax Band G and the need for works should be factored into budgets.
Viewings are recommended for anyone seeking a roomy, characterful home to refurbish and personalise in a convenient Potters Bar setting.
