Description
Having been lovingly occupied by the same family for many years, the property now comes to the market with no chain involved. It does require significant repair and full modernisation, but for the right buyer, this is an exciting opportunity to restore and reimagine a classic Garden Village home. If you’ve been searching for a project in a prime location, this could be the one to transform into something truly special.
The property has been extended in years gone by, creating generous ground floor space that already hints at what could be achieved. Two well-proportioned reception rooms provide flexibility for both relaxed living and formal dining, while the kitchen sits to the rear alongside a ground floor shower room, offering a practical layout ready for updating to modern tastes.
Stepping inside, the entrance hall sets the tone, leading through to a sitting room and separate dining room, each offering good proportions and plenty of natural light. The kitchen and rear lobby connect conveniently to the shower room, creating a footprint that could be enhanced and opened up, subject to the necessary works. Gas central heating and double glazing are in place, forming a solid starting point for refurbishment.
Upstairs, the first-floor landing leads to three nicely proportioned bedrooms, each offering scope to refresh and redesign. Whether you envision stylish family bedrooms, a home office, or guest accommodation, the space is there to adapt to your needs.
Outside, established gardens to both the front and rear provide welcome green space and further potential for landscaping. A detached garage adds valuable storage or parking, with access via the rear ten-foot. With imagination and investment, the outdoor areas could become just as appealing as the interior.
Council Tax Band B is payable to Hull City Council. EPC grade is awaited. This is a rare chance to acquire a substantial home in a sought-after location, ready for revival and full of promise for those prepared to roll up their sleeves and create something wonderful.

Bedroom Three
2.54m x 2.2m (8' 4" x 7' 3")

Agent's Note Two
HMRC is a supervisory body for money laundering regulations, of which all estate agents need to be registered. As part of this, there are multiple requirements that agents must rigorously and consistently meet to ensure they stay compliant with the regulations and protect their clients. To do this, we use an identity verification service, approved by the Government as part of the Digital Identity and Attributes Trust Framework (DIATF). This method and the process we follow to ensure compliance for your transaction come with significant time, financial and legal implications hence a portion of this is passed on. We elected for this verification process due to the speed, certainty, and accuracy it delivers. This helps us to protect all our client's interests by using the most advanced verification process to help prevent the impacts of money laundering alongside our internal manual policies and procedures while staying compliant with HMRC.
Agent's Note Two Continued
The administrative charge for this process is £40 plus VAT for a sole purchaser, £65 plus VAT for two purchasers and £75 plus VAT three or more purchasers.
Garage
The detached garage is of concrete sectional construction, complete with an up-and-over door to the front and a personal door to the side.
