Offering a unique combination of traditional character, move-in condition, and significant potential for enhancement, this property is an ideal opportunity for buyers looking for a home to enjoy now while adding value in the future.

Property Features

Move-in Condition but Dated: The property is ready for immediate occupancy, though some areas could benefit from modernisation, giving buyers a chance to update to their personal taste.

Bedrooms & Bathrooms: The house comprises two generous bedrooms, two well-appointed bathrooms, and a ground floor W/C, designed for practicality and family living.

Loft Room: A versatile loft room (not a dormer) offers a flexible multi-functional space, suitable as a home office, studio, guest room, or occasional bedroom.

Reception Space: The cosy yet spacious reception room provides a warm and welcoming atmosphere, with bright interiors and high ceilings creating a sense of space.

Kitchen & Dining: The current kitchen is functional and could be modernised or opened into a rear extension to create a contemporary open-plan kitchen/dining area.

Large Rear Garden: The property benefits from a substantial private garden, ideal for outdoor entertaining, dining, or family recreation. The garden’s size also allows for rear extensions and additional landscaping potential.

Outbuilding & Parking: An outbuilding provides extra storage or a potential garden studio/workshop, and resident parking ensures convenience.

Potential for Enhancement

Rear Extension: The property could be extended further to the rear (subject to planning), creating a larger kitchen-diner or family room.

Loft Development: The loft space could be converted (subject to planning), providing an additional bedroom or master suite.

Interior Upgrades: Updating bathrooms, kitchen, and décor with a neutral colour palette would modernise the home and maximise appeal.

Garden Landscaping: Adding patio areas, lighting, and planting could transform the garden into a standout feature of the property.
