A rare find on Brim Hill, this Tudor-style semi-detached house is offered freehold and has been in the same family for nearly 70 years. The property retains period character with a double reception, traditional fireplace and a large loft room that provides flexible fifth-bedroom space. A lovely 68 ft south-facing mature garden gives excellent outdoor space for families and gardeners.
The house sits on a generous plot with an integral garage and off-street driveway parking, and is a short walk from The Market Place amenities and about ten minutes from East Finchley tube (Northern Line). Several highly regarded schools, including an outstanding secondary nearby, make this a practical family location. Broadband and mobile signal are strong.
This is a substantial renovation project: the property needs modernisation throughout and currently has just one bathroom. Buyers should budget for comprehensive updating and possible reconfiguration to meet contemporary family needs. Council tax is quite expensive and local crime is above average, which should be factored into running costs and security planning.
For purchasers seeking period charm, a large garden and scope to add value, this home offers clear potential in a very affluent area. Investors or growing families who are prepared to renovate will benefit from the size, location and freehold tenure.
