Station Road, Riccall

We are delighted to welcome to the market this much-loved family home, which has remained in the same ownership since it was built in 1960.

Extending to almost 1,200 sq. ft. of living accommodation and occupying a generous plot of approximately 0.12 acre, the property has been cherished by the current owners for over 65 years. The time has now come for the next generation to enjoy the opportunities this home presents.

Upon entry, a welcoming hallway provides access to the principal rooms, with stairs rising to the first floor. To the right elevation sits the formal living room, a superbly proportioned space of almost 300 sq. ft., filled with natural light from dual-aspect windows to the front and rear. This versatile room comfortably accommodates a variety of furnishings.

A doorway leads into the dining room, overlooking the rear garden. Adjacent to this lies the kitchen, which forms part of a single-storey extension and benefits from a secondary rear door providing access to a useful outbuilding and outdoor space. The kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units, together with a sink and drainer with mixer tap. This arrangement, alongside the dining room, offers an exciting opportunity to remodel into a modern open-plan space (subject to the necessary consents).

To the first floor, a landing serves three bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a separate WC. Two double bedrooms are positioned to the right-hand side of the property, both well-proportioned and benefiting from casement windows and central heating radiators. A third single bedroom is located to the front. Additional storage is provided by built-in cupboards off the landing, one of which houses the hot water cylinder.

The bathroom comprises a panelled bath, hand wash basin, and a frosted window, while the WC is located separately. The original layout was thoughtfully designed to allow, if desired, an extension above the garage to create further accommodation, subject to the necessary planning approval.

Externally, the property occupies a prominent position on Station Road, approached via double gates leading to a hardstanding driveway with off-street parking for two vehicles and access to the attached single garage. The garage benefits from power, lighting, and ample storage.

The front garden is well maintained, mainly laid to lawn with herbaceous borders and defined by a half-height brick wall to the front. Pathways to either side of the property provide access to the rear garden, which offers a private and enclosed south-facing space, predominantly laid to lawn with excellent width and scope for landscaping.

While the property would now benefit from a programme of modernisation, it remains a generously sized home with immense potential. Recent improvements include a new Vaillant gas central heating boiler (installed within the last 18 months) and a replacement flat roof to the single-storey extension (within the last two years).
