Clay Hill, Enfield, EN2

This unusually light three bedroom house on a large corner plot in Clay Hill has a landscaped wraparound garden, a garage, and considerable scope for adding value through refurbishment or extension. Gordon Hill station lies within a mile of the property.

Located on a pleasant tree-lined street, this double-fronted 1,512 sq ft property has a 216 sq ft garage and a large wraparound garden. It’s in good condition throughout but would benefit from an update to the fixtures, fittings, and décor.

The house has a lot of lateral space on the ground floor, where it has been extended to create an enclosed porch at the front and a larger kitchen at the rear. A flight of steps leads up from the street and through the front garden to the spacious front porch. This has double doors that opens into a wide hallway with living rooms to the left and right, a dining room straight ahead, and a separate kitchen and WC beyond.

The living room to the right accessed via a wide, open archway, is over 18ft long and extends from the front to the back of the house, with glazed sliding doors to the garden. The living room to the left has a more traditional feel, with a large bay window.

The dining room is a lovely, light-filled room. Spanning the width of the house it’s over 22 ft long with garden views on two sides and glazed sliding doors that open onto the rear garden terrace. It also has a door to the kitchen which has extensive fitted wall and floor cabinets and worktop space, a tiled splashback, and both integrated and freestanding appliances. Windows on two sides provide plenty of natural light and garden views, and the garden can be accessed via a back lobby area which also has a WC.

The first floor has three bedrooms, a dressing area, a family bathroom, and plentiful built-in cupboards. All three bedrooms are doubles and have fitted wardrobes, and there are further cupboards on the landing where a dressing area has been created which could easily be converted into a fourth single bedroom or workspace.

The main bedroom is at the front and has a large bay window, the second bedroom at the rear has garden views, and the third bedroom has lots of character and great natural light from windows on three sides. The fully tiled bathroom has a shower cubicle, modern washbasin console and WC, and good natural light and ventilation.

Outside, the garden that wraps around three sides of the property is a fabulous outdoor space which has been landscaped to create a series of ‘garden rooms’, with areas of paving, lawn, and mature planting. There’s a shed in the side section and, at the end of the rear garden there’s a door to the garage. This has vehicle gates onto Hillside Crescent and there’s space to park a small car off-street in front of the garage.
