Set on one of Lower Clapton’s most desirable streets, this end-of-terrace Victorian home blends period character with recent practical upgrades. High ceilings, timber floorboards and original fireplaces create a warm, authentic feel, while triple-glazed sash windows and a newly fitted boiler reduce immediate maintenance and energy concerns. The layout spans basement, ground, first and second floors with versatile rooms for family life and home working.
The house has genuine scope to add value: the basement and rear garden offer potential to extend subject to the usual planning consents. A utility room with garden access and a neat front garden improve everyday convenience, and nearby parks, good primary schools and strong transport links make this a well-located family choice. The property footprint is an average-sized urban terrace offering comfortable living space and a sizable rear garden for outdoor use.
Buyers should note a few material points. There is only one bathroom plus a separate WC, which may be tight for larger families. The plot is relatively small at the front, and the area records above-average crime and higher-than-average council tax—factors to consider for budgeting and security. The house’s solid brick construction likely lacks modern cavity insulation, so there may be further retrofit costs if higher energy performance is desired.
Overall, this Victorian end-terrace will suit buyers seeking period charm with reasonable turnkey comforts and clear refurbishment or extension potential. It’s particularly appealing to growing families or investors wanting a centrally located property with uplift scope, but purchasers should factor in local area issues and potential upgrade costs.
