Description

This superbly located and much sought after 'Halls Adjoining' Gower D semi-detached house has obviously been much loved over the years and is well presented throughout. Featuring two spacious reception rooms, the versatile accommodation also includes a generously proportioned kitchen breakfast room ideal for everyday family living. Upstairs you will find a large family bathroom alongside all three of the genuine double bedrooms, two of which have built-in wardrobes. There is a delightful garden to the rear, off-street parking to the front, double glazing, and central heating. Similar homes in the immediate area have been extended providing additional bedrooms, en-suite bathrooms and further reception rooms and this scope exists here too. Rarely do Gower D's come onto the market, especially this well located, do not miss out on your opportunity to view.

The Gower D
This style of house is known locally as the Gower D. Held in regard due to the quality of build, this is a fine example of the 1930s architecture and construction. Particularly impressive about this design is the size of the reception rooms and the fact that all three of the bedrooms are genuine doubles.

Extension Potential
Similar Gower D's in the immediate area have been extended to the side, rear and into the eaves space to provide additional bedrooms, bathrooms and further living spaces. The garage could also be converted into living accommodation, as others have done too. This scope certainly exists here too, and obviously, any improvement of this nature will require the relevant local authority consents.
