4 Bedroom House - Detached
A stylish and individualistic architect-designed family home, well-loved but with much potential, in a pleasant tucked-way location close to local schools and transport links.
Overall Description
This is stylish detached architect-designed house that was built in 1988 and which has only had two owners, the current occupants having lived here since 1996. The property has a pleasing individualistic design, especially in the upstairs sitting room, with its galleried balcony looking down into the room below and out through the impressive full-height windows to the rear, into the garden. The property has four bedrooms; a large master bedroom with en-suite (and scope to create a dressing room) as well as a further en-suite to bedroom two and a family bathroom. The house also has a spacious entrance hall, utility room, downstairs cloakroom and integral garage which has the scope to convert into a family room with a window to the side (and possibly to the front - subject to consent). There is also potential to add a rear extension behind the kitchen, under permitted development rights, as a neighbouring property has done, There is off-street parking to the front and an attractively landscaped and surprisingly private east-facing garden to the rear. If you are looking for an individualistic family home, well loved over many years, but still with scope to extend and modernise to your own taste, then look no further.
Location
The property sits in a quiet, tucked away residential location, yet is very conveniently placed for local transport links with Finchley Central Underground Station (Northern Line - Zone 4) around a ten minute walk away, excellent local bus services and the A406, M1 and A1 just down the road. There are shops and other amenities in central Finchley, which is also a thriving community with a wide selection of busy coffee shops, cafes and restaurants. There are schools at all levels in the local area including the St Theresa's Primary School, Brookland Junior School, Akiva School, and the Bishop Douglass School. There are good local sporting facilities including Finchley Cricket Club, two tennis clubs and Finchley Golf Club.
