Description

This three-bedroom semi-detached home is nestled in a sought-after village location, offering significant potential for renovation and investment. The property features extensive off-road parking and generous rear gardens, making it an appealing choice for those looking to modernize and personalize their living space. With no onward chain, the next owner can move forward quickly with their plans. Located in Berry Hill, the neighborhood boasts an array of local amenities including junior and secondary schools, dining options such as a takeaway restaurant, a hair salon, and a chemist. For active lifestyles and community engagement, the village also features a rugby club that fosters social connections. Upon entering the property, you are welcomed by an entrance porch that leads into a bright hallway. This space connects to a spacious open-plan living/dining room that spans the full depth of the house. With large front and rear windows, this area is filled with natural light and presents countless possibilities for flexible furniture arrangements. A traditional fireplace adds character to the room—a great feature to consider enhancing during renovations. The kitchen at the rear is practical and airy, currently fitted with a range of units but offering ample opportunity for modernization. A large window provides views over the garden while allowing sunlight to fill the space. Direct access to the outdoor area makes it convenient for both cooking and entertaining. Ascending to the first floor, you will find three well-proportioned bedrooms along with a family bathroom. Each bedroom boasts its own unique attributes: the principal bedroom at the front offers elevated views and generous dimensions; bedroom two overlooks the tranquil rear garden; while bedroom three is versatile enough to serve as a child’s room or home office. The family bathroom features essential fittings including a bath with an overhead shower, wash basin, and WC. While functional as-is, it presents another opportunity for updates based on personal style preferences. Outside, you'll find ample off-road parking along a long driveway leading up to the front door. The rear garden is particularly noteworthy; this enclosed space primarily laid to lawn includes established greenery such as a mature apple tree and greenhouse. It provides plenty of scope for outdoor enhancements like seating areas or planting beds—ideal for those interested in gardening or creating an inviting outdoor retreat. This property represents not just a home but also an exciting opportunity for renovation enthusiasts or investors looking to capitalize on its potential in this thriving community.
