IDEAL INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY
This 1 bedroom, end cottage property is situated in the highly sought after village of Kirkheaton. Set at the end of a private lane, with similar style properties in this quiet back water position, the property would ideally suit the investor buyer. At present the property is a 1 bedroom property, but could have the first floor accommodation re-configured to create a second bedroom if required and subject to the necessary consents. The property does require a programme of modernisation and improvement works, however this has been reflected within the guide price.
