3 bed terraced house for sale

Rosslyn Avenue, Barnes SW13

Description

A characterful period home requiring comprehensive updating throughout, offering an excellent blank-canvas opportunity for a buyer looking to create their own space. Subject to the usual planning consents, the property can be extended and loft-converted, in line with neighbouring homes, providing superb long-term potential. The house already benefits from gas central heating, double glazing, high ceilings and several original fireplaces, providing a solid starting point for refurbishment. Its layout and plot offer great versatility, and the location is particularly sought after, positioned on the favoured side of the road. Externally, the property features a generous front garden and a private, south-facing rear garden with gated rear access, making it both practical and appealing.

The living space currently comprises an original front door opening into a hallway with storage. To the front is a bay-fronted reception room with fireplace, followed by a dining room which links through to a fitted kitchen with a rear door opening onto the garden. There is also a downstairs bathroom with WC. Upstairs, the first floor offers landing, a large bay-fronted principal double bedroom with built-in wardrobes, a second double bedroom, and a third bedroom/study. It should be noted that in many similar extended properties, this third room is typically reconfigured to form a first-floor bathroom. The gas boiler is currently located here. Above, there is a substantial loft space, currently used for storage, with clear potential to extend. The south-facing rear garden is low-maintenance and predominantly paved, with a storage shed and secure gated rear access.

Offered vacant and with no onward chain, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a period home in a prime location with genuine scope to add value and tailor the space to individual needs.
