Description

Set in a sought after and tucked away location close to "Ainslie Wood" itself, this three bedroom semi-detached house offers an enormous amount of potential for buyers to modernise, re-configure, and/or extend, to create a home to their own taste and specification (subject to Local Authority permission).

The accommodation is set out over two levels, where the ground floor comprises a hallway, lounge, dining area, plus a modest kitchen that leads out into to a "larger than average" rear garden (with a garden shed) for all the family to enjoy!
Upstairs, the first floor features two double bedrooms and a single, together with a bathroom, separate W.C., plus a hatch to the loft space that currently provides additional storage space, as well as the exciting possibility of a loft conversion (subject to Local Authority permission).

The impressively sized "fan shaped" driveway offers ample off street parking to the front (for at least three vehicles) and is conveniently situated within easy walking distance to a great choice of local schools, shops and glorious forest strolls, together with the multitude of transport links for commuters, including a short walk to Highams Park mainline overground train Station, which offers direct links into London Liverpool Street (journey time 20 minutes approx).

This is an ideal purchase for buyers that are either looking for an investment opportunity with possibilities to extend (STP) or for First/Second time buyers, to put their 'own stamp' on their future, bespoke, "Forever Home!".
