THE PROPERTY

Offering excellent potential for refurbishment, this three-bedroom semi-detached home is situated within an established residential development close to the centre of Thornhill. Extending to approximately 82 sqm, the property requires a comprehensive programme of modernisation and upgrading throughout, making it an ideal opportunity for buyers looking to create a home to their own specification.


ACCOMMODATION

The ground-floor accommodation begins with an entrance hallway leading into a spacious lounge/dining room, where sliding patio doors provide direct access to the rear garden. The adjoining kitchen offers a generous footprint with a range of existing wall and base units. Also on the ground floor is a double bedroom and shower room, providing useful flexibility for anyone seeking predominantly ground-level living.

Upstairs, the landing leads to two further bedrooms. The larger principal bedroom benefits from built-in storage, while both rooms feature roof windows allowing natural light into the upper floor.

Externally, the property has a block-paved frontage providing off-road parking, along with useful external storage. A garden area is located to the rear and offers further scope for improvement.

The property benefits from double glazing, LPG-fired central heating and mains water, electricity and drainage. Buyers should be aware that the home is in tired condition, with repair, maintenance and modernisation required. However, the spacious and adaptable accommodation presents considerable potential for an owner-occupier, investor or property developer.

Early viewing is recommended to fully appreciate the layout and opportunity available.
