Description

This three-bedroom semi-detached house presents a promising opportunity for renovation and investment in a popular residential area of Hereford. Nestled off Westfaling Street and just under a mile from the city center, the location offers a blend of quiet living and convenient access to local amenities. Surrounded by essential services, residents will find Quay House Medical Surgery & Pharmacy, local shops, and recreational areas nearby, which include playgrounds and sports facilities such as basketball courts and BMX tracks. With supermarkets like Tesco Express and Co-op Local within easy reach, daily needs are well catered for. Additionally, Trinity Primary School and Whitecross Academy provide educational options within close proximity. The property itself features off-street parking, with potential for further enhancements as planning permission has already been granted for drop-curbs. Currently in need of updating and personal touches, this home includes UPVC windows throughout as well as a side conservatory that provides access to the rear garden. The house is equipped with modern heating via a Worcester Bosch gas boiler and has up-to-date electrical certification. Inside, the ground floor comprises an inviting hallway leading to a spacious sitting room complete with a bay window and central fireplace. The kitchen/dining area offers ample space for refurbishment, featuring fitted units with marble-effect work surfaces and two large windows that invite natural light while showcasing distant views across Hereford. Upstairs are three bedrooms—the largest benefiting from south-facing light—and a family bathroom ready for modernization. The outdoor spaces include an established rear garden bordered by timber fencing, offering the possibility for landscaping improvements or extensions. With its solid structure and favorable location, this property not only allows for immediate living but also presents significant potential for future value enhancement through renovations. Whether seeking to create a comfortable family home or an investment opportunity in Hereford’s thriving market, this house invites your creativity to unlock its full potential.
