2 bedroom terraced house for sale

Occupying a superb edge of village position this two (formally three) bedroom home offers well proportioned, bright and airy internal accommodation, which now requires significant improvement/modernisation throughout, however, benefits from a particularly generous garden to the rear.

Approach is via a path which also has a lawn to the side. This could in our opinion, and subject to the necessary planning permissions/consents), conceivably incorporate a drop curb to provide parking. Once inside you're immediately greeted by the hallway which has stairs leading to the first-floor accommodation and to the left the principal reception room, the living room, which commands impressive dimensions, in this case 12'6ft by 12'5 with an open fire and attractive tiled hearth and surround as well as picture rails and a window overlooking the front elevation. Beyond here is the kitchen/diner which has been fitted with a range of floor and wall mounted units with light coloured work surfaces over. Space is available for a cooker, fridge and washing machine, whilst it also has useful pantry storage. To one side is capacity for a table and chairs, ensuring a real family/sociable area. An inner lobby to the rear provides external access into the garden as well as to the shower room which comprises of a walk-in shower enclosure, low level wc and wash hand basin. White tiled splashbacks adorn the walls and an obscure window glances across the side.

Moving upstairs the first-floor landing gives access to all the accommodation on this level, the master of which nestles to the front aspect and measures 15'9ft by 10'7ft at its maximum point. The second bedroom occupies the rear and is also well proportioned given that it was originally two bedrooms. It enjoys elevated views down the garden from twin windows and has an airing cupboard to one corner.

Externally the rear garden is sizeable and deceptively generous with a paved patio as you initially step out. It also has a useful brick-built outbuilding currently utilised as further storage. Beyond here the garden leads up and kicks out to run behind the neighbouring properties. It has been laid to lawn with several shrubs, bushes and mature trees dotting the plot, whilst the boundary is enclosed by timber fencing.
