Summary - 55, FIRST AVENUE SW14 8SP
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Characterful family home near the Thames with loft conversion potential.
Three double bedrooms and bay‑fronted master with fitted wardrobes
Set on a highly regarded road near the River Thames, this Victorian three‑bedroom mid‑terrace offers immediate comfort and clear scope to personalise. The house retains original features — sash windows, fireplaces, cornicing and picture rails — while providing an airy bay‑fronted reception, a kitchen/breakfast room and a private rear garden. Chain‑free freehold tenure simplifies purchase for families seeking quick occupation.
At about 1,125 sq ft the layout suits family living but also rewards improvement: a large loft and the footprint offer scope to extend or convert subject to planning permission. Practical details include double glazing, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, and useful storage plus gated rear access and a garden shed. Local amenities, outstanding primary schools and easy links to Barnes Bridge and Mortlake stations make this location particularly family friendly.
Important considerations: the house was built before 1900 with solid brick walls and is assumed to lack cavity wall insulation, so buyers should budget for insulation and potential fabric upgrades. There is a single shower room only, and Council Tax sits in Band F, reflecting higher running costs. Any loft conversion or ground‑floor extension would require planning consent.
Overall this is a characterful family home in a very desirable SW14 pocket. It will suit buyers wanting turn‑key period charm with the option to create additional space and long‑term value through sympathetic refurbishment.
