Solway Road, London, N22

There’s great potential for adding value through refurbishment and extension to this three bedroom Edwardian terraced house in Wood Green. Lying in a quiet road close to the town centre with a park at the end, it has a sunny, southwest-facing garden.

PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

This typical terraced Edwardian property has a good period proportions and a traditional layout with a living room, dining room and kitchen downstairs, and three bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs. Many neighbouring houses have been extended either to the rear, into the loft or both, so this property has significant potential for similarly adding square footage and value. It also has scope for refurbishment as it’s currently in a fair condition having been let for some time.

The orientation of the property is ideal, with a southwest-facing rear garden that maximises outdoor warmth and sunshine, and a northeast-facing frontage that helps keep the property cool during hot weather. A covered porch provides shelter for the front door which opens into a hallway with an understairs cupboard and doors to all three rooms on this floor.

The front living room has good natural light thanks to two large windows, and ample space for a large sofa and TV, whilst the rear dining room easily accommodates a family dining table. The galley kitchen is well-equipped with plentiful fitted cabinets and has a glazed door that opens into the low maintenance paved rear garden which has a shed at the end and the potential to be a lovely outdoor living space.

Upstairs the two double bedrooms are a good size – both have space for kingsize beds and bedroom furniture. The third single bedroom is ideal for a child, guest, or for use as a study or workspace. The family bathroom has bath with a tiled surround and mixer shower, a washbasin with storage beneath, and a contemporary freestanding WC. An obscured glass window provides daylight and ventilation.

The property is in a fair condition throughout with mainly white or neutral décor, gas central heating, and double glazing.
