Inside The Home
A generously proportioned four-bedroom mid-terraced property offering spacious accommodation across three floors, together with a substantial cellar and garage. Requiring modernisation throughout, this is an exciting opportunity for buyers looking for a property they can transform and truly make their own.
Entry is through a double-glazed front door into a useful porch area, providing a good degree of separation between the outside and the main living accommodation. From here, you enter the impressive lounge and dining room, a particularly spacious reception area with a characterful bay window to the front, creating a bright and welcoming living space. To the rear of the ground floor is the kitchen, which is functional and fitted with an integrated oven. The layout provides a good foundation for future improvement and offers the opportunity to create a modern kitchen tailored to the new owner's taste and requirements.
To the first floor are three well-proportioned bedrooms. The master bedroom is positioned to the front of the property and benefits from the attractive bay window, while the remaining bedrooms provide excellent versatility for family living, children's rooms, guest accommodation or home working. Also located on the first floor is the family bathroom, fitted with a three-piece suite.
The second floor provides a fantastic fourth bedroom. This is an exceptionally spacious room, offering excellent flexibility and making an ideal master bedroom, teenager's suite, guest room or home office, depending on requirements.
One of the property's standout features is the substantial cellar, which provides several separate areas and includes a utility room. Offering an impressive amount of additional space, the cellar extends through towards the garage and presents considerable potential for storage, hobbies and practical household use. Externally, the property benefits from a garage, adding further useful storage and practical appeal.
Requiring modernisation throughout, this property should be viewed as a true blank canvas.

With four spacious bedrooms, substantial cellar accommodation, a garage and generous living space, this is a property with plenty of potential and scope to create something truly special.
