This 3-BEDROOM SEMI-DETACHED COTTAGE, built we believe in circa 1909, has been a much-loved home by the current family for nearly 60 years and comes to the market offering SIGNIFICANT SCOPE TO MODERNISE along with GREAT POTENTIAL TO SIGNIFICANTLY EXTEND (as done by the attached, neighbouring property). Additionally, there is potential to convert the loft space if required (STPP).

The dining room benefits from a woodburning stove. To the rear is the KITCHEN with solid antique pine cupboards and a separate sink unit where a large window above displays delightful views over the gardens, along with spaces for a cooker and fridge/freezer. Beyond the kitchen is a separate UTILITY with space/plumbing for a washing machine along with an external door to outside and internal door to a GROUND FLOOR BATHROOM equipped with a white suite.
