Detached house in central Ely location
Generous plot in excess of 0.2 of an acre
In need of refurbishment and repair
Freehold with vacant possession
Description
A detached house in a generous central city plot, within walking distance of the town centre, the cathedral and Ely station.

The detached house is of pitched tiled roof construction over brick walls with timber external cladding, but is in need of some internal refurbishment and repair, with the potential for redevelopment / extension (STP).

The internal accommodation can be summarised as:
Ground Floor: Entrance Hall with stairs to first floor and understairs cupboard; Sitting Room with triple aspect windows and doors to garden; Dining Room with windows to rear and fitted book/display shelves; Kitchen/Breakfast Room with a range of MDF base and wall units and pantry cupboard; Shower Room with white wc, wash hand basin and shower cubicle; Single Garage with up-and-over door to front, window and door to rear garden.

First Floor: Central Landing gives access to 3 Bedrooms, a full-height storage cupboard and a further Shower Room with white wc, wash hand basin and shower cubicle.

Outside: To the front of the property is a shingle driveway which provides parking for a number of vehicles whilst also giving access to the single garage. The generous frontage contains a wide variety of shrubs and plants.

To the rear is a large and professionally maintained garden with a large lawn, mature trees, shrubs and year-round flower beds, as well as a substantial patio immediately to the rear of the accommodation.

There is evidence of structural movement within the rear parts of the property, which is subject to ongoing works as part of an open insurance claim that can be transferred to the buyer. The repairs and refurbishment will present buyers with an ideal opportunity to tailor the property to their needs.

Location
Tower Road is ideally situated on the south west side of Ely city centre within walking distance of the shops, facilities and services that Ely has to offer. The city's train station provides mainline services to Cambridge and London.
