Description

This three-bedroom terraced home in Thornham presents an excellent opportunity for renovation and investment, with a layout that invites personalization and modernization. The property is characterized by its larger-than-average size, offering significant potential for those looking to enhance its value. Upon entering, you are greeted by a porch leading into a spacious hallway adorned with ornate coving and stair access to the upper floor. The living room features a front-facing bay window, allowing natural light to fill the space, while the lounge/dining room at the rear provides ample room for family gatherings or entertaining guests. Both areas feature carpeted flooring, which could be replaced or updated according to your tastes. The kitchen is functional yet in need of updating, featuring wall and base units alongside a sink unit and rear-facing window. This space could be transformed into a modern cooking area with the right vision and resources. Upstairs, the landing connects three bedrooms—each presenting a blank canvas for customization. The first bedroom faces the rear of the property and includes a uPVC window, while bedrooms two and three overlook the front yard. These rooms vary in size but all offer potential for reconfiguration or renovation to enhance your living experience. The bathroom is equipped with essential fixtures but would also benefit from modernization. Externally, there is a small rear yard accessible via the house, ideal for creating an outdoor retreat or additional storage solutions through its brick-built shed. Located within walking distance of local shops, this property combines quiet residential living with convenient access to amenities—an appealing factor for both homeowners and renters alike. With some strategic updates and improvements, this home holds significant investment potential in an evolving market. This property is currently leasehold with an annual ground rent of £2; further details can be confirmed with your solicitor. The local council tax band is set at B, although we suggest confirming this information as it may change over time. Viewings are available by appointment only—please reach out to arrange your visit and explore the possibilities this home has to offer.
