Corri Avenue, London, N14

This 1930s semi-detached three bedroom family home in Arnos Grove has a long drive, a garage, and a large garden. Whilst it’s already an ideal family home, it also has significant potential for adding space and value through updating and extension.

Located on this lovely, wide tree-lined avenue, the property lies on the more desirable elevated side of the road giving it an appealing open aspect at the front. A slightly sloping paved drive and landscaped front garden lead up to the sheltered porch which opens into a large central hallway which is generously sized. This is a typical feature of this house which has retained its original layout and is a well-designed family home. It also has many original windows with charming leaded lights.

The property comprises 1,320 sq ft of space with 729 sq ft on the ground floor (including the brick garage) and 591 sq ft on the first floor. The ground floor has front and rear living rooms, a separate kitchen, and a WC, whilst the first floor is home to two double bedrooms, a single bedroom, a bathroom, and a separate WC.

The large 17’1” by 12’6” front living room has a large south-facing bay window and a 1930s tiled fireplace with two small high-level windows to wither side. Currently painted white and carpeted, this is a huge room with a tranquil sense of separation from the rest of the house. Across the large hallway, the rear reception room is similarly spacious. This has French doors to the garden and a gas fire. It has pale wallpaper and is also carpeted. The adjacent kitchen has fitted wall and floor cupboards with space for freestanding appliances. A window above the sink provides lovely garden views and there’s room for small kitchen table.

Carpeted stairs lead up to a large central landing. The 12’6” by 12’2” main bedroom is at the front; this has a delightful south-facing bay windows and a wall of fitted wardrobes and is wallpapered and carpeted. The 15’1” by 11’6” double bedroom at the rear of the house has garden views and a wide north-facing window, whilst the third bedroom measures 11’2” by 7’10”. The bathroom and WC both have windows and are adjacent. The former is a good size, with a fitted bath, freestanding washbasin, and built-in cupboard.

Outside, in addition to the front garden, the property has a paved driveway that runs along the side of the house to a brick garage and provides direct access to the 117 ft rear garden. The garden has a small rear terrace and is otherwise mainly lawned, with deep borders and mature planting.

There’s considerable potential to add value and space by updating the property and adding loft or rear extensions, as seen in the attached neighbouring property and several others in the street.

Offered chain free.
