Description

HOUSE & BUILDING PLOT - This 1950s detached house with a building plot occupies a peaceful position on a no through road, conveniently located close to a primary school.

The original house offers well-proportioned accommodation, comprising three bedrooms, a kitchen with side hall/utility area, spacious lounge and a separate dining room, providing excellent versatility for family living. There is a bathroom on the first floor, complemented by a ground floor shower room for added convenience.

In addition to the main residence, the house comes with a building plot that has full planning permission granted for a three-bedroom chalet, presenting an exciting opportunity for development or multi-generational living. The property has been lovingly maintained over the years, and offers the scope to further update or extend (subject to relevant consents) to create a truly bespoke home.

The outside space is a particular highlight, with the property occupying an excellent plot that features established gardens to the front, both sides and rear. There is a driveway and double carport

The generous plot size, combined with the existing planning permission for an additional dwelling, gives this property exceptional potential for those seeking a family home with development possibilities in a sought-after residential location, or for a developer to modernise the existing house and construct the new build property.

There is no upward chain and early viewing is highly recommended to appreciate all that this property has to offer.
