Beautiful 4-bed house in London on sale for £600k CASH only- and there's a big catch

An Edwardian-style house in an affluent area of London has appeared on the market - but only for cash buyers who are ready to roll their sleeves up.

Peter Graff Estate Agents, listing on Rightmove, concede that the "once elegant" property "requires extensive repair and renovation" and will set a buyer back £600,000.

However, it adds: "It needs a new owner who understands a serious project but has the imagination to see this property's full and deserved potential.

"Some lovely original features, a good sized rear garden and garage with rear access."

The once grand home has not one, but two, ground floor reception rooms, one of which leads onto the fairly sized back garden of the leafy suburb of Winchmore Hill, north London.

Covering a distance of 6.3 miles between Newington Green and Winchmore Hill, the house is on one of the longest streets in the capital, Green Lanes, which passes through the N16, N4, N8, N13 and N21 postcode areas.

The house itself is in N21, under the local authority of the Enfield Council.

In its current state, the four bedroom property might make prospective buyers baulk as it is strewn in artefacts from times gone by.

Pictures from the estate agent show every room in the property full of a random assortment of items, including old clocks, dusty lamps, grand mirrors, old videos and food stuffs.

But look behind the madness and there is a house with pretty original features including a period stained glass window that flanks the original period style entrance door in the hallway.

The property, which has a total floor area of 165 metres, also has a front garden, and one bathroom.

It's likely that a clear out would cost a pretty penny, not to mention the mould and damp that appears to line the walls.
