Potential to add value
This charming two-bedroom end-of-terrace property in Countesthorpe, positioned in a quiet residential location, is very well suited to a small family, those looking to downsize, or first-time buyers seeking their first home.
Arriving at the property, you will first take note of it’s neat, tidy and easy to maintain front driveway. Upon accessing the property via a welcoming front door, you will enter a separate hallway that flows into a well-proportioned living room, which benefitting from many character features including a wooden floor, original doors and feature fireplace, nicely sets the homely tone for the rest of the property.
Off the living room and at the rear of the property is a kitchen-diner that overlooks the garden. Although in need of modernisation, it is a good-sized space, currently containing ample kitchen units with room remaining for a dining table. In consequence of two additional storage cupboards and the property’s position on a corner plot, there exists a great opportunity to either convert the existing space or even extend to the side (subject to satisfying local planning laws), and in doing so, to create a wonderful kitchen-dining area and add further value to the property.
The characterful theme of this home continues upstairs, which contains two double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The master bedroom, positioned at the front of the property, is particularly well-sized, with space for ample bedroom furniture. The second bedroom, whilst currently used as a home office, is also very well proportioned and thus suitable for many uses by the eventual purchaser. Lastly, the bathroom, which contains a three-piece suite selected in a style that maintains the property’s charming qualities, is also particularly spacious.
To the rear of the property is a small but largely private garden. Although currently laid to gravel and lawn, with attractively shaped flower beds to each side, it again represents a good opportunity for the new owner to improve upon the property, particularly were they to convert the existing kitchen-diner as described above and create a rear access that flows into this pleasant outdoor space.
Whether a couple, small family or first-time buyer, this is a must-see property for those seeking a home with bags of charm and an opportunity to improve upon it still further. Viewings are highly recommended.
