Description

A Rare Opportunity to Create a Beautiful Home

Offered to the market for the very first time since new, this THREE BEDROOM character home presents a genuinely exciting opportunity for a purchaser looking to modernise and add value. Having been lovingly held within the same family since construction, the property now offers a blank canvas for its next chapter.

Positioned within a highly convenient and established residential setting, the home combines charm, space, and potential, making it ideal for families, investors, or those looking to create a long-term home tailored to their own style.

Accommodation & Living Space

The property offers well-proportioned accommodation with a traditional and practical layout. Upon entering, you are welcomed into a central hallway providing access to the main living areas.

There are two reception rooms, offering flexibility for both formal and informal living. These spaces retain a sense of character and provide an excellent foundation for enhancement, whether through redecoration or more extensive refurbishment.

The separate kitchen sits to the rear of the property and offers clear scope for redesign or extension (subject to the necessary permissions), with the potential to create a modern open-plan kitchen/dining space overlooking the garden.

Upstairs, the property provides three bedrooms, all of which offer good proportions and natural light, along with space for reconfiguration if desired. The layout lends itself well to modern family living once updated.

Throughout the home, there are character features that reflect its heritage and provide a charming starting point for a thoughtful renovation.

Gardens & Outside Space

Externally, the property benefits from both front and rear gardens, offering excellent outdoor space for families, gardening enthusiasts, or those seeking to landscape and enhance the setting.

The rear garden in particular provides an opportunity to create a private and enjoyable outdoor environment, with potential for entertaining areas, planting schemes, or future extension (subject to planning).

Well-regarded local schools
