Description

Guide Price £300,000 to £325,000 - Quote Ref: DP0213 when requesting further details of this excellent opportunity to acquire a spacious four-bedroom semi-detached home overlooking the attractive Meadowside Park on Currants Farm Road. Offered to the market for the first time in over 50 years, this much-loved family home now presents a wonderful opportunity for a new owner to modernise and create a fantastic long-term home.

The property is entered via a composite front door leading into a welcoming entrance hallway, with stairs rising to the first floor and doors leading to the living room, kitchen and downstairs cloakroom.

The living room sits at the front of the home, enjoying views over the front aspect towards Meadowside Park, and features a gas fireplace creating a natural focal point to the room. A door leads through to the dining room positioned at the rear of the property, which overlooks the garden and provides an ideal space for family dining and entertaining.

The kitchen is also located at the rear and currently offers a range of wall and base units with fitted oven and extractor hood, stainless steel sink and space and plumbing for a washing machine. A useful serving hatch connects through to the dining room. A Crittall window overlooks the garden and a door leads into an inner hallway where there is a built-in storage cupboard and access to the rear garden and a third reception room. This versatile space could serve as a second sitting room, home office or additional dining room depending on a buyer’s needs.

On the first floor, the landing provides access to four bedrooms and the family bathroom. Bedroom one is a generous double room with dual aspect windows to the front and rear. Bedrooms two and three are also comfortable doubles with windows to the respective front and rear aspects, both benefitting from built-in storage cupboards, with bedroom two also housing the airing cupboard. Bedroom four is a single room which would equally work well as a home office, enjoying views over Meadowside Park.

The family bathroom is centrally positioned and fitted with a three-piece suite including a bath with shower over, partly tiled walls and obscured glazed windows to the rear and side.

Outside
To the front of the property there is a lawned garden with a pathway leading to the entrance. A side gate provides access to the rear garden where there is a patio area immediately behind the house leading onto a lawn with established borders. The garden also benefits from a garden shed and enclosed boundaries.

About eXp UK, South East

114 St. Martin's Lane London WC2N 4BE

eXp UK are the newest estate agency business, powering individual agents around the UK to provide a personal service and experience to help get you moved.

Here are the top 7 things you need to know when moving home:

Get your house valued by 3 different agents before you put it on the market

Don't pick the agent that values it the highest, without evidence of other properties sold in the same area

It's always best to put your house on the market before you find a property

The estate agent acts for the seller and is there to get the seller the best price possible

Understand the length of time it can take - 14 weeks from when you accept an offer, or have an offer accepted to move in! A long time!

It can get stressful, but speak to your agent and your solicitor and they will put you in the picture

Be nice to estate agents - we're pretty nice people, offer some great advice and will help to get you moved ;-)
