Summary - 63 63 Forest Road, Cheshunt, EN8 EN8 9DB
3 bed 1 bath Detached
Private gated Victorian home with wrap-around garden and development potential near Cheshunt station.
Detached Victorian house with period features and character
A rare detached Victorian property set back behind private gates, this three-bedroom home sits on a secluded plot with a mature wrap-around garden and generous driveway. The house retains period character and offers spacious reception rooms, a large fitted principal bedroom and a long detached garage/workshop with clear scope for conversion into ancillary accommodation (subject to planning).
The property is suited to growing families or developers seeking a project. Previously granted permission for a double-storey extension demonstrates clear enlargement potential; further development is possible subject to planning consent. Internally the layout provides a strong foundation for reconfiguration and modernisation, with a lean-to and rear hallway already offering flexible utility or extension space.
Buyers should note this is a refurbish-and-extend opportunity rather than a move-in-fresh home. The property has only one bathroom and will benefit from updating throughout to deliver contemporary family living. The plot is described as small relative to the built form, and the area shows higher-than-average crime rates and local deprivation indicators — factors to weigh when considering resale or rental prospects.
Convenience is a key strength: Cheshunt station, A10 and M25 links are close by for commuters, and several local primary and secondary schools rated Good by Ofsted are within reach. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support home working. For purchasers with vision, the combination of character, privacy and proven planning precedent creates a standout opportunity to create a bespoke family home or a value-add investment.
