A fabulous opportunity to purchase a delightful semi detached Edwardian house with three generously sized bedroom, sitting in a good sized plot and enjoying wonderful views to the rear and within a short walk of the town centre and its facilities. The property enjoys a prime location with wonderful river and country side walks nearby and the town centre, which offers a selection of independent shops and chain stores, doctor and dentist surgeries and a variety of entertainment venues. Schooling for all ages is also within easy reach. This is the first time that the property is being brought to the open market having been held for the same family for many years. It has been a very much cherished and enjoyed family home to our seller for the last fifty seven years. During this time it has well cared for and benefits from a rear single storey addition, which lends itself to a wonderful kitchen/dining room and family space. The property retains character features of the era, such as original fireplaces in the sitting room and bedrooms (one to be uncovered), decorative coving and picture rails plus an original sash window and provides well proportioned comfortable accommodation, which is ready to be updated to one's own taste and style. The property benefits from spray foam roof insulation, uPVC double glazing and gas fired central heating. This lovely home has a wonderful ambience and must be viewed to truly appreciate what it has to offer. An early viewing is strongly recommended so as not miss out on the chance to be the next owner.
