Tothill Street, Minster

An exciting opportunity to acquire a detached three-bedroom residence, built in the 1960s and offered for the first time in over half a century, having been lovingly built and occupied by the same family since its construction. Situated in a desirable position within the heart of Minster village, this substantial home offers over 1,500 sq.ft of accommodation and provides an excellent opportunity for a new owner to modernise, reconfigure and create a wonderful contemporary family home.

Although requiring a programme of updating, the property offers excellent proportions and, importantly, a layout with considerable potential. The accommodation opens into a spacious entrance hall with useful storage and a cloakroom, with the kitchen positioned to the left. Beyond this lies a generous L-shaped living and dining space, which has the potential to be transformed into an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and family room. With the kitchen opened into the existing living area, there would be a fantastic sense of space, while double doors provide a lovely connection directly onto the garden.

To the first floor, a spacious galleried landing leads to three well-proportioned bedrooms and the family bathroom. The principal bedroom is particularly impressive, occupying a generous area to the rear of the property. A wash basin is already positioned within the room and, with some creative reconfiguration, it is easy to envisage the addition of an en-suite shower room, whilst still retaining ample space for a dressing area and king-size bed.

Outside, the property enjoys a generous westerly-facing rear garden, providing sunshine from later in the morning through to the evening and offering plenty of scope for landscaping, entertaining and family enjoyment. To the front, a substantial driveway provides off-road parking for up to five vehicles, and leads to a detached garage.
