Description

This end-of-terrace home features two bedrooms and presents a solid opportunity for renovation and investment. It includes an enclosed rear garden, a driveway for off-street parking, and a single garage, all of which enhance its appeal to both homeowners and investors looking to capitalize on value-added improvements. The living area welcomes you with a front entrance that leads into a light-filled space, where a full-length double-glazed window along with an additional side window create an inviting atmosphere. The fireplace offers potential as a focal point for future updates. This room conveniently connects to the kitchen, which is equipped with wall and base level storage units, as well as space for essential appliances including a fridge/freezer and washing machine. The double-glazed window here provides views of the rear garden, while direct access allows easy transition to outdoor space. Upstairs, the layout comprises two well-proportioned bedrooms that benefit from ample natural light through multiple double-glazed windows. The first bedroom features built-in wardrobes for storage efficiency. The second bedroom presents flexibility in design for personal use or as a rental option. The bathroom is functional yet ready for modernization, offering basic amenities that could be enhanced with contemporary fixtures. Externally, the property boasts a maintained front lawn leading up to the entrance, alongside an outdoor storage cupboard—ideal for keeping tools or gardening supplies secure. Access to the fully enclosed rear garden is granted through side gates or directly from the kitchen; this private space includes established shrubs and trees that can be revitalized or redesigned according to your vision. Given its location and current condition requiring modernisation, this property stands out as an attractive investment prospect. With no upward chain involved in the sale process, it enables smooth transitions for buyers keen on undertaking renovation projects aimed at increasing property value.
