Description

This end-of-terrace house offers a promising investment opportunity in a well-regarded area, close to schools, local amenities, and plentiful green spaces. Comprising two spacious bedrooms and a reception room, the layout is functional yet presents considerable scope for improvement. The master bedroom benefits from ample natural light, while the second double bedroom provides comfortable accommodation. The bathroom features a classic three-piece suite, which could be further updated to enhance the space. The reception room combines original wood flooring with a traditional fireplace, making it an ideal candidate for transformation into a warm living area. Although the kitchen has seen some updates over time, there is significant potential for modernization. The property is in need of renovation but provides an excellent blank canvas for those looking to invest their efforts. Additionally, it boasts garden space that could be cultivated into an appealing outdoor retreat with some landscaping work. This home falls within council tax band B and has an EPC rating of D. Being sold via online auction with no chain, this property is tailored for investors eager to capitalize on its potential in a vibrant community filled with recreational opportunities.
