Description
** Open House 24th October - Call To Book In! **
Guide Price £350,000 to £375,000
This semi-detached property dates from the early 1960s and has been owned by the same family for over 50 years. Set back from the road, towards the top of a quiet no through road, it is located in a quiet spot just 200 yards from the River Exe. The bustling town centre is within easy reach. The accommodation now requires some improvement and modernisation.
An entrance porch has inner door to the hallway. The sitting room, with dining area, sits to the rear of the property and has doors to the rear garden. The kitchen is fitted with a range of units, with space and plumbing for appliances. On the first floor are 2 double bedrooms, each fitted with a number of wardrobes. The family bathroom has a bath with shower attachment, pedestal wash hand basin and WC.
To the front is an off road parking space, with gates to the enclosed front garden with path to the front door. There is potential to create further off road parking, similar to the neighbour. A pedestrian gate to the right leads around to the enclosed south facing garden with patio, level lawn and bordered by attractive flower and shrub beds. 2 small storage sheds. Further up the road and around the corner is the single garage, the 2nd one located in a block.
Overall, this is a superb opportunity to acquire a well located house to put one's own stamp on. Garaging and parking are a huge benefit in this wonderful part of the town.
