Description

This two-bedroom period property presents a compelling opportunity for renovation and investment. Located in a desirable area just over half a mile from the station and High Street, this home is well-situated for easy access to local amenities and transport links. Inside, the accommodation features a spacious 23-foot bay-fronted sitting-dining room, complete with double-glazed sash windows that enhance its charm. The exposed floorboards add character, while the feature fireplace serves as a focal point for the living space. The kitchen, measuring 12 feet and benefiting from natural light through a skylight, offers double-aspect views and direct access to the garden—a layout that invites creativity for future updates. On the first floor, you'll find two well-proportioned double bedrooms along with a family bathroom conveniently located off the landing. This layout provides flexibility for reconfiguration or expansion, particularly with potential plans for a loft conversion, subject to obtaining necessary consents. Outside, the property includes a low-maintenance front garden and a rear garden primarily laid to lawn, adorned with trees and shrubs alongside a small patio area. This outdoor space offers room for enhancement and personal touch. With its blend of original features and scope for improvement, this property not only serves as a comfortable home but also stands as an attractive investment opportunity in an increasingly sought-after location.
