Additionally downstairs has a 11'2" X 7'4" kitchen, utility room, lounge and dining room separated by sliding doors, which could be easily removed to create an open plan lounge/diner.
The position of the property means that the bathroom, downstairs cloakroom and landing are all south easterly facing making them very light and full of sunshine, while the south westerly facing lounge gets the sunshine for virtually all of the day.
Views from the front bay windows both ground and first floor benefit from the fact there are no properties opposite so there are open views across Heath Road towards the hospital in one direction and Rushmere Heath in the other.
Summary Continued - To the front of the property there is a good sized front garden with double width driveway parking for two adjacent vehicles. There is ample potential for additional driveway parking by block paving or tarmacking the front lawn as has been carried out in several neighbouring properties.
At the rear of the property there is a small rear garden which is unoverlooked from the rear. There are two additional side gardens ideal for storage of wheelie bins etc with a side pedestrian access.
The entire property offers superb potential and requires upgrading and modernisation which gives an opportunity for lucky new owners to put their stamp on the property.
