Sheringham Avenue, London, N14

Occupying a prime position on a wide, tree-lined avenue, this semi detached four bedroom house has off-street parking and a garden studio. Located close to Oakwood tube station, the park, and good primary and secondary schools, it’s an ideal family home.

This spacious semi-detached family home has lots of character and plenty of space with 1,682 square feet of space over three floors including a loft conversion, and a 114 sq ft garden studio. The property has a large block paved front garden with off-street parking for two cars and an attractive raised bed with mature planting. There’s a single step up to the front door which opens into a large, welcoming front porch. This leads to a central hallway which has doors to the front and rear living rooms, the kitchen/diner, and a WC.

The front living room is a quiet retreat with a south-facing bay window, fireplace, and plenty of space for lounge furniture. The rear living room, formerly two rooms, is over 22ft long and has great garden views through full height sliding doors. This room is carpeted and has an attractive cast iron fireplace with an ornate tiled surround. The adjacent kitchen/diner has garden views through a wide window above the sink and a glazed door that opens onto the paved terrace. Fitted with extensive wall and floor cabinets and integrated appliances, it’s well-equipped and has plenty of worktop and storage space. The dining area is cleverly located in a cosy nook with plenty of space for a large dining table.

The first floor retains its original layout with two double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The main front bedroom has a lovely bay window, the second double bedroom has fitted wardrobes and garden views, and the third bedroom is an (8ft 4 by 8ft 2) single. The family bathroom has a corner bath and a shower cubicle as well as a washbasin and WC. The top floor loft conversion, which comprises a large bedroom with built-in wardrobes, eaves storage, and an en suite shower room, has great natural light and lovely leafy views.

The house has been well-maintained and is in excellent condition throughout, with tasteful décor and modern fixtures and fittings including gas central heating and double glazing.

Outside, the 66ft landscaped garden has a large, paved terrace adjacent to the rear of the house (ideal for entertaining with direct access from the rear living room and kitchen), and a central lawn bordered by planted beds and paths to a second terrace and studio building. Currently used as a workshop, this has an electricity supply and is suited to a variety of uses.
