Pedestrian access onto the delightful 'Byes', a riverside walk and parkland which leads to the town centre, is located within 200 metres of the property.

Furthermore, we understand that a bus service is available within 25m of the property, which provides access into the town centre.

We understand that the property was re-roofed and re-wired in approximately 2001. The homeowner owned solar panels are located at the front and rear of the roof and included with the sale is a Tesla rechargeable battery that complements the system.

The present owners have explained that due to having homeowner owned solar panels their electricity bill is approximately £90 per annum after feed in tariff payments. The owners also use solid fuel which costs approximately £600 per annum.
The current heating system is electric, however we understand that a number of properties in the road benefit from oil fired central heating as gas is presently unavailable in Fortescue Road.
