This substantial Victorian mid-terrace offers generous, flexible living across four levels and approximately 2,325 sq ft. High ceilings, sash bay windows and original fireplaces give strong period character, while wide rooms suit entertaining and family life. A raised ground dual-aspect reception and separate kitchen/breakfast open to a decked terrace; the lower-ground level forms a self-contained two-bedroom apartment with separate side access — ideal for rental income, guests or home working.
Practical points are clear: the house is freehold, flooded with natural light and in good decorative order, but has an EPC rating of D (66) and solid brick walls likely without insulation. The rear outdoor space is compact — a decked roof terrace off the kitchen and a wrap-around patio garden on the lower ground — so buyers wanting large lawns should note the small plot size.
The property suits a family seeking large reception rooms and proximity to strong local schools (including several top-rated options) or an owner-occupier investor who can benefit from the lower-ground self-contained apartment. There is scope to modernise or reconfigure layouts to improve energy efficiency, add insulation and adapt the plan to contemporary living, subject to consents.
Location benefits include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and convenient local amenities and transport in W14. Council Tax Band G means running costs will be relatively high; purchasers should factor this and potential upgrading works into budgets.
