This substantial five bedroom house in a prime Winchmore Hill location has a covered carport and a garage to the rear. Just minutes from the train station, the many amenities of The Green, and Grovelands Park, this is a very desirable place to live.

With over 2,000 square feet of internal space and well-proportioned rooms, this handsome house with attractive original Victorian features, dates back to 1898 but is well-suited to modern living.

There are three living rooms on the ground floor. A traditional-style front reception room, a central dining room, and a rear living room. The front room has a large bay window, whilst the rear living room is home to a beautiful original fireplace and has large, glazed sliding doors that open onto the rear garden tiled patio. Both rooms have original ceiling cornicing, ceiling roses and a picture rails.

The central dining room is a charming room with a window to the rear lean-to and an arch to the conveniently adjacent kitchen. The dining room and kitchen have the same wood laminate flooring, and the kitchen is well-equipped, with fitted wall and floor cupboards with integrated appliances and a tiled splashback. There’s also a smart monochrome-tiled shower room on this floor.

The first floor is home to three bedrooms and a family bathroom. This is fully tiled, has good natural light from an obscured glass window, and is fitted with a bath and a separate shower as well as a freestanding washbasin. The WC, which also has a window, is in an adjacent room.

The main double bedroom is at the front of the house. This impressive room has a large east-facing window (great for morning sun), generous proportions and a cast-iron feature fireplace. The second double bedroom is at the rear and has two windows with garden views and two fitted wardrobes. The third double bedroom is currently fitted out as a kitchen/utility room.

The fourth and fifth bedrooms are on the second floor. Both are doubles and have dormer windows and fitted wardrobes.

Outside, the property has an appealing frontage with a lawned front garden, encaustic-tiled path and railings. The rear garden has been landscaped to provide a terrace adjacent to the rear of the house, a lawn with a paved path, borders for planting. At the end of the garden there’s also a large, covered lean-to and a brick garage, with rear vehicle access via Wades Grove.
