Description

This two-bedroom semi-detached Victorian property presents an intriguing opportunity for those looking to invest or renovate. Recently refurbished, it is in good condition yet still offers ample potential for further development, making it a compelling option for both homeowners and investors alike. The home features comprehensive insulation, including 100mm underfloor insulation and 300mm in the loft, contributing to its respectable D EPC rating while leaving room for future improvements. Recent updates include a complete rewiring with full certification, plumbing system overhaul, and newly fitted kitchen and bathroom. Freshly laid carpets throughout add to the appeal of this well-maintained residence. Occupying a generous plot that extends over 150 feet in total, this property boasts considerable frontage along with a dedicated path/driveway. The expansive rear garden measures over 60 feet and overlooks serene agricultural fields, providing a picturesque backdrop. Additional external elements include a brick outbuilding, coal shed, WC, and block-paved patio area—an ideal space for outdoor gatherings or leisure. The existing prefabricated garage presents various options; while functional, it may be considered for replacement or redevelopment to better utilize the space. Preliminary assessments from local architects highlight the potential for significant enhancement through extensions—both upwards and outwards—from a two-story addition that could nearly double the living space to more contemporary rear extensions featuring bifold doors that take advantage of the scenic views. With certain areas left unfinished, new owners are afforded the unique chance to customize aspects of their home according to personal preferences. Viewing this property is highly recommended to fully appreciate its character and spacious dimensions while considering the exciting possibilities ahead. Affectionately termed 'The House of Dreams' by its current owners who have been unable to realize its full potential due to time constraints, this property now awaits someone ready to bring their vision to life.
