Description

It is true that there were not many houses built-in post-war Britain during the 1940's, but apparently, this is one of them and as the saying goes "they don't make 'em like this anymore!"
Since then, this robust property has been extended downstairs and provides scope for further enlargement upstairs, if required, subject to obtaining any necessary planning permission and building regulations etc.
Properties of this age tend to occupy larger plots of land than their modern counterparts, such is the case here. Not only that, it has the great advantage of not being overlooked at the rear and from its elevated position, it commands far reaching views over open countryside, whilst backing directly onto fields.
The family sized accommodation includes 2 separate reception rooms, 2 conservatory additions plus the extended kitchen/breakfast room. The utility was once the original kitchen and there is a downstairs shower room and WC.
There is off-road parking in the driveway as well as a garage and the delightful, private rear garden is ideal for barbecues and al fresco dining during the summer months.
Location wise, the house is well placed for access into the town centre with its associated shops, restaurants, pubs, doctors, dentists, leisure facilities and schools of all grades, including Sir John Talbot's secondary school.
Those travelling by car will no doubt appreciate swift vehicular access to the bypass for travel throughout a wide geographical area. Whitchurch even boasts its own railway station.
