Description
"Please note that we are inviting offers at £685,000 and above, due to the cash investment this property requires.
This ‘Diamond in the Rough’ – could be made liveable now for £10,000 or outstanding for £100,000-£200,000 – you choose?
The biggest draw here is the location – you are one of the only flats on the road with your neighbour above. And in the Bedford Park Conservation Area, where the houses are valued at c.£2M+. It is a road that will always bring a sense of pride that you live on it, and you are looking onto beautiful - Artist Studios. I know 2 amazing artists on the road who open their doors to all for exhibitions at least twice a year and a lot more - privately. They also tell me how wonderful the road is and its residents are.
You need an appetite to do work and a vision to turn this into a perfect supersized 1 bedroom or an outstanding 2 bedroom/2 bathroom - subject to usual permissions. I walked through it with a builder with 20 years’ experience in the area (Steve of Project 1 Design & Build) – please watch my video for more details.
The volume and ceiling heights of this maisonette (with its own front door) are tremendous, most of the original features are intact and just need bringing back to life, like whole property. The 847sq ft / 78 Sq M which is including the basement (cellar) could easily be increased to over 1000sq ft / 92 Sq M+ (STPP). It would still leave a wide and very enjoyable West facing garden if you did fully max out the - extension potential.
We invite buyers that want a project and are aware of what an opportunity this is to buy a garden flat in a pocket of Chiswick, which is known by all that live in W4 and by most others that live in other neighbourhoods – close by.
As you would have seen in my video, you are a 4 minute and 26 second walk from Stamford Brook Tube Station via a cut through at the East end of Flanders Road. Bath Road, which is at the North end of Gainsborough Road, has bus link into town. And you can also walk to Turnham Green Tube and Turnham Green Terrace in 7 minutes and that walk is more pleasant. From there, you’ve got everything Chiswick has to offer and more.
I look forward to showing you around but please bring your imagination caps with you."
Material Information:
