Look at the potential of this beauty!

I think in 5 years time, when last teenager has flown, I might just about have one more big project like this in me!!

Need to lose a couple of bedrooms to increase the number of bathrooms, and knock thru to make a big kitchen

I wish I could do this right now!!!

Beautiful, although a lot of house if there are no DC living there. Shame about the parking, but what a lovely little lane it’s on.
I think it should be compulsory to offer a virtual viewing. I’d love to ‘walk’ around that, see how it flows and zoom into all the nooks and crannies. It will be amazing after a refurb, as long as they don’t rip all the character out!

It's weird - too many bedrooms for the downstairs space. And why is there a utility on the first floor? It looks as though it may have been split into flats or at least separate living spaces. I think the ground floor probably needs extending as well as the kitchen making bigger in order for it to be in proportion to upstairs. I also wonder whether it and it's next door neighbour were once the same house and divided at some point?

I don't know that area - I imagine you'd have to spend a lot on it - what do you reckon it would sell for if it was done up?

Each to their own, not my taste / choice but that's the great thing about property many of us like different things.

Tho I do agree it has some great period features, and I would like to know if some of that furniture is being left - could be sold / up cycled etc.

I would be concerned there is some structural damage in places or maybe just sheer neglect.

Was the property used as a family home ? as the 2 fire extinguishers makes me think of HMO or Children's Home etc.

Very good size property for not a lot of money, others appear to be 3/4 bed ' boxes ' in that price range

It said it hadn't been sold for 40 years, I think. So sad to think it's become like that.

Lovely stairs in it.

It's been removed by the agent and is marked Sold STC.

Amazing! Buy it!

Could be stunning...but the housework would count me out!

It's a lovely house.

What do you think has happened to it to mark the walls like that?

I would spend that just for the staircase!

It's absolutely riddled with damp - all the GF rooms by the look of it - huge, huge patches of mould / removed plaster. Fixing that would be really difficult, and I say that as someone who doesn't mind a 'project'.

That's a lot of bedrooms for a last project, but I know what you mean OP.

When DS heads off to uni in a couple of years and I can retire and move away from London, I am looking forward to my 'one last big project' too. 😊

I'll be looking for a three bed detached with a lot of green space around it. Room for me, DS when he needs it, and a guest room. Can't wait. 😊

Yes that is the sensible plan & probably exactly what we will do ...but I do love a nosey around right move of an evening!

Looks like it's sold already...good luck to the buyers...I'd love to see the after pictures when it's done

...back to day dreaming then!

I love the hallway and staircase but I'd want a detached house.

It's a semi detached would need so much money spent on doing it up you would probably not get your money back during your lifetime.

Looking in streetview there is no pavement in either direction which may put some people off.
