Kinghams, 7, Oaklands Road, London, N20 8BA

Built in 1988 and offered for the first time since new, this well-proportioned four-bedroom detached family home is now offered chain free and presents an exciting opportunity for modernisation and improvement.

Situated in a sought-after cul-de-sac, the property provides approximately 2,712 sq ft of gross internal accommodation, including the integral double garage.

While the house is dated and would benefit from a comprehensive programme of modernisation, it offers generous proportions and an excellent foundation on which to create a contemporary family home.

The ground floor opens into a welcoming entrance hall with access to the principal living accommodation, including a generous 19'9" x 19'3" lounge and separate dining room.

To the rear, the kitchen and utility room lead through to a conservatory overlooking the garden, while two guest cloakrooms and a useful wine cellar add further practicality.

The integral double garage provides excellent storage and parking.

On the first floor are four bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en-suite shower room, together with a family bathroom and separate WC.

The property offers considerable scope for enhancement and, subject to the necessary planning consents, could be further extended to include a loft conversion, ground-floor extension and conversion of the existing garage.

This presents an excellent opportunity to modernise, reconfigure and significantly enhance the property, creating a highly individual family home while retaining the generous garden and desirable cul-de-sac setting.

Set in the heart of Totteridge, the property enjoys an enviable position surrounded by greenbelt countryside, with Totteridge Green, Totteridge Common and a network of footpaths through open fields, meadows and mature woodland all close by.

Whetstone High Road provides an excellent range of shops, restaurants and gastro pubs, including Waitrose and M&S, while Arkley and Barnet are also within easy reach.

The area is well served by highly regarded schools and places of worship.

Despite its peaceful setting, transport links are excellent, with Totteridge & Whetstone Underground Station (Northern Line) providing direct access to central London and Oakleigh Park Overground offering convenient connections into the City.

There is also easy access to the A1 and M25, providing excellent road connections throughout London and beyond. Local Authority: Barnet Council Tax Band: G Tenure: Freehold
