A spacious detached property built in the late 1950s with a wonderful opportunity to modernise and enhance.

This three bedroomed property has an abundance of light with large windows and a southernly facing aspect. Set within a generous plot with a driveway, pretty frontage and enchanting rear garden which has an array of established shrubs and young trees. The property has stayed with one family for over 60 years and has a wonderfully homely feel, the accommodation is clean and extremely well looked after and is ready for a new owner to embrace its potential.

There is over 1300 sq.ft of light and airy space which includes an integral garage which could be converted and incorporated within the living accommodation.

The front door opens into a hallway with large cloakroom, under stairs coat closet and stairs to the front door.

To the left there is a dual aspect sitting room with electric fire and doors to the rear garden, whilst to the right of the hallway the kitchen is spacious and well configured with breakfast bar and convenient utility room. The utility allows access to the garden and the garage and has plumbing for laundry appliances. The space is further enhanced by a dining room which sits adjacent to the kitchen and could be knocked through to create a large family dining area. We understand from the vendor that underneath the carpet there lies original parquet flooring which could be restored.

A solid oak staircase rises to the first floor where one will find a galleried landing that leads to three double bedrooms and a family bathroom, which has recently had a walk-in shower installed.

The dual aspect main bedroom could be divided to offer a four bedroomed home or alternatively is large enough to install an ensuite with use of two cupboards that overlap the landing.

OUTSIDE:

To the front of the property there is a driveway that leads to the garage, which has an attractive wooden door. The front garden has been well kept whilst the rear garden is an enchanting sunny space which enjoys all day long light, the lawn is bordered by established shrubs and young trees, with a wrought iron gazebo with mature wisteria growing around it.
