Freehold Victorian semi-detached circa 1900–1929, generous 1,338 sq ft

This attractive three-bedroom Edwardian semi-detached house on Orchard Road offers spacious, characterful accommodation for families wanting close access to High Barnet’s amenities and tube links. High ceilings, bay windows and period cornicing create bright reception rooms, while a well-maintained rear garden and off-street parking add everyday convenience.
The layout includes two reception rooms, a separate fitted kitchen with morning room, ground-floor WC and a single family bathroom upstairs. The property is freehold, generous in size (approx. 1,338 sq ft) and sits on a decent plot, with scope to extend rearwards and into the loft (subject to planning permission) — appealing for buyers seeking to add value or create extra living space.
Buyers should note some practical drawbacks: the external walls are original solid brick and likely uninsulated, broadband speeds are reported as slow, and there is only one bathroom. These facts mean potential improvement works (insulation, wiring checks, connectivity upgrades) should be factored into any purchase plans.
Located in a quiet cul-de-sac near High Barnet High Street, the house benefits from low local crime, excellent mobile signal, good nearby schools (several rated Good or Outstanding) and easy access to local parks and leisure facilities. For families seeking a period home with extension potential in an affluent, well-connected area, this property presents a strong opportunity.
