Description

This mid-terraced property features three bedrooms and is situated in a quiet cul-de-sac off Cooks Lane in Fordbridge. While it requires some updating, it presents an excellent opportunity for renovation, making it ideal for first-time buyers or small families looking to create their ideal home. The layout includes a welcoming entrance porch leading into the hallway, which offers access to a convenient downstairs WC and ample understairs storage. The spacious lounge diner benefits from natural light through double-glazed windows and sliding doors that open up to the rear garden, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor spaces. The fitted kitchen features essential amenities such as cupboard draw units, a steel sink with drainer, and plumbing for a washing machine, providing a solid foundation for modernization. Upstairs, the landing gives way to three bedrooms of varying sizes; the two larger rooms include built-in wardrobes and sizable windows that allow for bright interiors. The shower room on this level is functional as-is but holds potential for improvements. Outdoors, the front and rear gardens offer manageable green spaces with established shrubs. The rear garden has a paved path leading to a lawn area and provides access to a separate garage via gated entry. This feature adds considerable value and utility, especially in urban settings where parking can be at a premium. Located close to local shops, schools, and public transport links, this property not only invites creative renovation but also stands as a strategic investment in a sought-after area. With no onward chain, it allows buyers the flexibility to move forward with their plans without delay.
