Detached Family Home | Generous Plot | Fantastic Potential to Extend | No Chain
Property Description
Positioned on a generous plot in the heart of New Longton, this detached family home presents a wonderful opportunity for its next owners to create a home perfectly tailored to their own lifestyle.
Set well back from the road behind a beautifully maintained front garden, the property enjoys an attractive frontage with established flowers and shrubs, a low brick boundary wall, generous driveway parking for several vehicles and a detached garage.
Internally, the accommodation is both spacious and flexible, offering buyers the opportunity to adapt the layout to suit their own needs.
The ground floor currently comprises a spacious lounge, a separate reception room which could equally serve as a home office, playroom or additional bedroom, together with a further ground floor bedroom. A separate bathroom and WC provide practicality for family living, whilst the kitchen/dining room offers plenty of space and exciting potential to extend across the rear, creating the large open-plan kitchen, dining and family room that many buyers now seek (subject to the necessary permissions).
To the first floor are two good-sized bedrooms, and a bathroom, with excellent opportunity to further develop the loft space. Subject to the relevant permissions, the addition of dormer extensions could create further bedrooms, an en-suite and additional living accommodation, allowing the property to grow alongside a family's changing needs.
Outside, the rear garden is a real highlight. Extending to approximately 60ft, it enjoys a sunny aspect throughout the day and is not directly overlooked, providing a high degree of privacy. Whether you're entertaining friends, watching children play or simply relaxing outdoors, the garden offers space to enjoy it all.
This is one of those increasingly rare properties that allows the next owner to create something truly special. Whether you're looking to modernise, extend or simply put your own stamp on a home, the possibilities here are extensive.
Offered for sale with vacant possession and no onward chain, an early viewing is highly recommended.
