Description

Nestled in a coveted residential area within the Darrick Wood catchment, this three-bedroom semi-detached home presents an excellent opportunity for renovation and investment. The property’s layout offers a solid foundation for customization to suit individual preferences and needs, making it particularly appealing to those seeking to add value over time. The ground floor features flexible living spaces, including two spacious reception rooms. One of these rooms boasts bi-fold doors that seamlessly connect to the garden patio, providing potential for an enhanced indoor-outdoor flow with some thoughtful updates. The kitchen is fully equipped and modern, serving as a functional hub for daily family activities while also being well-suited for entertaining. Upstairs, the home includes three generously sized bedrooms, all outfitted with built-in storage options. The four-piece family bathroom has been finished to a commendable standard but holds potential for further enhancements that could increase both comfort and resale value. A highlight of this property is its south-facing rear garden, which benefits from abundant sunlight throughout the day. The outdoor space includes a decked area ideal for gatherings or quiet relaxation, surrounded by mature plantings that ensure privacy.
