Set back from the road behind a mature front garden, the property enjoys lovely open views across the green, creating a peaceful setting rarely found so close to the city. Double gates open onto a block-paved driveway providing ample off-road parking and access to a substantial timber garage and workshop.
The entrance hall has been extended to provide additional space, with a glazed entrance door and window allowing plenty of natural light. This improvement has also created a convenient ground-floor shower room, fitted with a modern white suite and electric shower. A useful understairs cupboard provides further storage.
To the front, the dining room enjoys delightful views over the green and offers excellent flexibility as a separate sitting room or snug. Original internal doors and period detailing retain much of the property’s traditional character.
The main living room is positioned at the rear, overlooking the garden. A feature gas fireplace creates a focal point, while sliding patio doors provide direct access outside. The room offers comfortable proportions and potential for further improvement or extension.
The kitchen features a range of fitted beech-effect units, a gas hob, electric oven and plumbing for a washing machine. Original quarry tiled flooring adds character, complemented by a distinctive solid timber dresser. A side door provides convenient access to the driveway and rear garden.
Outside, the south-westerly facing garden enjoys a pleasant degree of privacy and afternoon sunshine. A paved patio provides space for outdoor seating, with a lawn and mature tree beyond. The generous plot also offers potential for landscaping or extending the accommodation, subject to the necessary permissions.
Upstairs are three well-proportioned bedrooms, including two spacious doubles and a comfortable single. The front double bedroom enjoys particularly attractive views across the green and retains a feature fireplace, while the principal bedroom overlooks the rear garden.
The family bathroom retains an original cast-iron bath and pedestal wash basin, with a separate WC located nearby. An airing cupboard houses the combination boiler. Although the property would benefit from cosmetic updating, it provides an excellent opportunity to create a home tailored to individual tastes while retaining its original character.
Greenwood Avenue is a quiet residential road just off Watling Crescent, ideally positioned for enjoying everything Handbridge has to offer.

With its outstanding green outlook, generous gardens and exciting potential, Greenwood Avenue offers a rare opportunity to acquire a traditional family home in one of Handbridge’s most appealing locations, with the added benefit of no onward chain.
