A rare and exciting opportunity to transform this charming four-bedroom home into your dream residence, situated on one of North Ilford’s most sought-after roads—‘The Drive.’ Properties in this stretch set back on The Drive seldom come to market, making this an unmissable chance to secure a home with great potential in a prime location.
Having been cherished by the same family for many years, this house is filled with character, warmth, and history, offering a bright and airy feel throughout. While it does require extensive renovation, it provides a blank canvas for buyers eager to put their own stamp on a property and create a truly special family home.
The ground floor boasts a spacious and well-proportioned layout, featuring two large reception rooms and original features, a generous kitchen/breakfast room, and a convenient ground-floor WC. There is excellent potential to extend across the rear (subject to planning permission), further enhancing the living space to suit modern family needs.
The first floor continues to impress with three bright and spacious bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a separate WC. From the landing, a staircase leads to the second-floor loft conversion, where you'll find a well-sized fourth bedroom complete with an ensuite shower room—ideal for a private master retreat or guest accommodation.
Externally, the property benefits from a rear garden of approximately 60ft, offering plenty of space for outdoor entertaining, landscaping, or future extensions. Side access adds extra convenience, while off-street parking at the front ensures practicality for modern living.
Location is everything, and this home does not disappoint. Nestled in the heart of North Ilford, it is set back on ‘The Drive,’ a prestigious tree-lined road known for its exclusivity and family-friendly atmosphere. With outstanding schools nearby, including excellent primary and secondary options, as well as the beautiful open spaces of Valentines Park just a short stroll away, it’s an ideal setting for family life. Commuters will appreciate the fantastic transport links, with Ilford, Gants Hill, and Redbridge stations all within easy reach, providing quick access to central London via the Elizabeth Line and Central Line.
This is a rare opportunity to purchase a home with incredible potential in a truly desirable location. Whether you're looking to restore its original charm, modernize it to your taste, or extend and transform the space, this property offers limitless possibilities. Don’t miss the chance to make it your own!
