Property description
A spacious and very well proportioned Victorian maisonette on the ground floor, with its own south-west facing garden, a 165 x 126 kitchen/dining room and separate reception room; and unusually, a two-roomed cellar with some natural light and reasonable head height (1.82m). There is a good layout, with all the rooms arranged off the hall and the useful additional space in the cellar currently provides a utility room and extensive storage area; we believe it will give an incoming purchaser some exciting scope to create additional living or bedroom space, by carrying out a basement conversion (subject to the necessary consents). Let out in recent years, the flat will undoubtedly appeal to someone looking for a home that they can move into straight away but with the opportunity to re-style to their own taste over time; it is neutrally decorated with a plain kitchen and white bathroom and provides an excellent base from which to create a much more personalised interior.
Barmouth Road is part of a delightful enclave of tree-lined streets and runs between Allfarthing Lane and prestigious Westover Road, not far off the north-western edge of Wandsworth Common and within easy reach of Wandsworth Town mainline station (direct service into Waterloo) and fashionable Old York Road. There is another mainline station at Earlsfield and the surrounding area offers a fantastic range of cafes, shops, restaurants and bars. Wandsworth itself is expected to benefit enormously from the major changes associated with the planned regeneration of the old Ram Brewery, being designed to create a vibrant and buzzing high street and piazza with renewed public access to the River Wandle; this will also greatly enhance the recently refurbished Southside Shopping Centre. Fulham and Chelsea, just across the river, are easily accessible by car, bus or on foot. There are two highly regarded Primary schools, Allfarthing (within approximately 500 feet ) and Swaffield (approximately 0.2m) close by, as well as plenty of green open space at nearby Wandsworth Common and King Georges Park.
