Description
DESCRIPTION
A substantially extended 1930's detached family home which has undergone a major refurbishment programme over the years including updated electrics and central heating system. The property provides underfloor heating to the dining kitchen area and there is great versatility with the ground floor extension providing potential annex, games room, therapy room or home office. The property has off road parking for several vehicles. There are some nice original features yet has modern contemporary additions to the house. The rear garden is of a good size and is a blank canvas. The master bedroom is a great feature being exceptionally large for this style of property and with en suite facilities. In addition to the open plan kitchen living space there is a separate snug, ground floor shower room and a boarded loft space that could, subject to planning, be converted into additional sleeping accommodation.
LOCATION
