Description
If you are looking for a family home to put your own stamp on without having the expense and hassle of extension works, then look no further than this property. Offered chain free, this 1930s terraced house has already benefited from a loft conversion, providing a fourth bedroom with an en suite toilet, which could be remodelled to incorporate a shower room if required. The ground floor has been enlarged by way of a full-width rear extension, creating a large kitchen/breakfast room/diner together with an extended rear reception room. Whilst any prospective purchaser may wish to update the property to suit their own tastes, and in general the house would benefit from modernisation and redecoration, the major works have already been completed. The fuse box has been upgraded and the windows and external doors have been replaced, gas fired central heating via a renewed boiler. Further benefits include a spacious bathroom, a sunny rear garden measuring approximately 70ft in length and a garage situated at the far end of the garden.
