Description

This detached three-bedroom home presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment in the desirable Eccleston village. Its spacious layout offers a solid foundation for customization, enabling you to create a living space that aligns with your vision. Upon entering, you are welcomed by a reception hallway that leads into a generously sized dining lounge—the central hub of the home. This area connects seamlessly with the fitted kitchen and separate utility room, ideal for both daily family living and social gatherings. A cozy sitting room filled with natural light could become an inviting retreat, while the conveniently located downstairs bedroom adds flexibility for guests or multigenerational living. The property is designed to potentially function as a traditional dormer bungalow, maximizing convenience by offering essential living areas on one level. The upstairs includes two additional bedrooms and a family bathroom with a classic three-piece suite, allowing ample space for both family members and visitors. One of the standout features is the expansive rear garden, which offers a sun-soaked outdoor area perfect for relaxation or entertaining. Set on a large plot, this garden not only enhances your outdoor living experience but also provides significant potential for expansion (subject to planning permission), making it an attractive proposition for future investment. At the front, you'll find a paved driveway leading to an attached garage, adding convenience for parking and storage. The lack of upward chain facilitates a smooth transition for new owners eager to move in quickly. Located within walking distance of local amenities and reputable schools, this property is well-positioned for families and commuters alike, thanks to its accessible transport links into nearby towns and cities. This residence offers not just immediate comfort but also considerable potential for those looking to invest in their future through renovation and personalization.
